Bath man jailed for child sex offences

A man from Bath's been sentenced for a series of sex offences against children.

53 year old Stewart Geen's been jailed for 21 years with a five year licence extension.

He admitted seven counts of series offences involving girls aged between 5 and 14 at Bristol Crown Court.

Geen was also placed on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely, and the court also issued him with a sexual harm prevention order.

During sentencing, HHJ Lambert said: “There is no question but that you knew what you were doing was wrong and wicked in the extreme. You chose your own corrupt sexual pleasure and thought nothing of the ruination of young lives. You are truly a monster steeped in corruption.”

This case was investigated by Operation Ruby – Avon and Somerset Police’s dedicated child protection team.

Officer in the case, DC Louise Pizey, said: “The impact of Stewart Geen’s crimes has devastated the lives of his victims and their families. Geen was trusted implicitly when caring for young children and breached his position of trust in the most abhorrent way.

“I would like to thank the victims and their families for their bravery in coming forward and supporting this investigation, and the witnesses who assisted in bringing this dangerous offender to justice.”
