Ex-cop jailed for 10 years over paddleboard deaths

Nerys Bethan Lloyd, 39, had organised a tour on the River Cleddau in South Wales in October 2021 despite “extremely hazardous conditions” and weather warnings in place.

Lloyd — who prosecutors said was “not remotely qualified” for the trip — failed to warn the group about a weir on the route or how to navigate it.

The participants were swept over, with some trapped under the fast-moving water.
