April 2015 Nantwich man jailed for child sex abuse offences A Nantwich man has been sentenced to 17 years in prison after being found guilty of sexually abusing a young boy he was babysitting. Stuart Martin Bebe, 39, of The Beeches, was sentenced at Chester Crown Court after being found guilty at an earlier hearing of nine counts of child abuse, committed between 1994 and 1995. DI Clare Coleman said: “The offences culminated in the modern offences of rape on several occasions, albeit the indictments were ones of gross indecency, incitement of a boy to commit gross indecency and attempted rape.” Bebe, who was sentences on April 20, committed his offences while he was babysitting his victim when the boy was aged seven and eight. DI Coleman said: “This was a blatant abuse of trust which has left a family devastated. I hope this result will bring some kind of closure to the victim who bravely came forward to report the abuse he has suffered. “He and his family were supported throughout the case by dedicated officers and specialist support services. Cheshire police takes sexual abuse seriously and I would urge anyone who has been a victim to contact police.”
