Duncan Lewis, Legal News Solicitors, A re-offending paedophile sent to prison after offending immediately on his release

A paedophile internet stalker has been jailed after he was found harassing his girlfriend but within days of his release he started preying on two schoolgirls and has been sent behind bars again.
Shane Webber had subjected his childhood sweetheart Ruth Jeffery to a humiliating three-year trolling campaign, using social networking sites to send naked pictures of her to her friends and family, including her horrified parents.
The 23 year old pervert kept consoling his girlfriend in person while torturing her online which included assuming her identity on adult websites and inviting men to knock on her front door and ask for sex.
In the first instance he was jailed for four months last November when his ‘vile and malicious’ hate campaign was eventually exposed.
But within days of his release in January, Webber committed a series of online sexual offences against two 15-year-old girls.
Miss Jeffery, who became suicidal during her ordeal, was in court yesterday to hear how her former boyfriend tried to entice the girls to strip and perform sexual acts for him, and sent one of them a video of him and Miss Jeffery having sex.
After he persuaded one of the girls to run away to meet him, Webber was arrested, although he claimed they had not been intimate.
Nottingham Crown Court heard how Webber contacted the girls using MSN Messenger in January, only eight days after being released from prison, and performed depraved acts while they watched.
Yesterday, unemployed Webber, from Nottingham, admitted causing or inciting a female under 16 to engage in sexual activity, one count of making indecent photos and two counts of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child.
After Webber was jailed for three years, Miss Jeffery, 23, said she was ‘revolted’ to hear he still had a video of her. She added that he was asked to get rid of all images of her and was revolted when she discovered he hadn’t. she said she felt physically sick.
Judge Michael Stokes QC sentencing Webber said, he had used ‘a high degree of manipulation and deceit’.
Miss Jeffery met Webber when they were 11 at school together in Nottingham. He began his campaign of abuse by setting up fake email addresses to pose as former school friends, which he used to send sexually explicit photos and videos to Miss Jeffery.
He then began distributing photos of her, some of which were taken after bursting in on her while she was in the shower, on adult websites and to family and friends using social networking websites.
Outside court, Miss Jeffery said she could not believe that he had offended again almost as soon as he came out of prison.
Miss Jeffery, a student, said that she was pleased with the sentence. She added that she did not feel anything towards him but she did not forgive him,’ she added.
