Story here. Excerpt:
'Nurse Suzanne Maree Dyason fell in love with a male prisoner at the Maryborough Correctional Centre known only as "DH" and had a sexual relationship with him between March 2006 and July 2009, the Courier Mail reports.
The Queensland Civil and Administration Tribunal (QCAT) was told Dyason tried to hide the illicit affair from her superiors and used childhood nicknames in letters and phone calls with DH to avoid detection.
...
The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia requested Dyason be banned for three years but Judge Kingham has ordered the ban to be reduced to 18 months and compelled Dyason to seek counselling from a psychologist who specialised in "boundary violation issues".'
