Record details
A man from Malvern has been jailed for sexual offences involving children.
Richard Webb, 34, of Moat Crescent, was sentenced to nine years in prison at Worcester Crown Court yesterday (Thursday 2 December).
He will be placed on the sexual offenders register for life and will have a three-year extended licence period.
His offences took place in the Hereford area between 2006 and 2019 and involved incidents where the victims were between the ages of 8 and 14 at the time of the offences.
He also met with a child and committed sexual offences following a period of grooming and possessed extreme pornography.
Detective Constable Leah Lowe said: This investigation was highly emotional and Id like to recognise the courage of the victims who came forward.
This man groomed and abused his victims and this sentence is reflective of the suffering and misery he caused.
West Mercia Police take all complaints of sexual abuse very seriously and I hope this case gives the public confidence to come forward and report any incidents of concern whether recently or in the past.
