His victims were left shaken by the incidents, and were taken to hospital in order to be tested for various conditions.

Adam Smith, 33, was a serving prisoner at HMP Parc in Bridgend when he carried out the disgusting assaults on staff members at the jail.

He had been sentenced to six years’ imprisonment for inflicting grievous bodily harm.

A sentencing hearing at Cardiff Crown Court heard the first assault took place on November 17, 2023, when a prison officer was mingling with inmates.

The officer felt a wet substance hit the back of his head, and fall down his back and legs.

He described it as “cold, runny wax’, and he could smell faeces and urine.
