He was charged on Febuary 22 for offences that took place in the 1990s against a teenage girl in Aylesbury and Kent.

“Without her determination and courage to see this child abuser brought to trial we would not have been able to gain the conviction of this man.

“Kent Police will thoroughly pursue any child sex offender, whether the crimes were committed recently or many years ago and I would encourage those who have been victims of this type of crime, or those who believe they know a child is or has been abused to report it to us.”

The investigation was lead by Thames Valley Police.

DC Victoria Gidman, of Aylesbury police station, said: “This sentence reflects the severity of Jeeves’ crimes.

“Thames Valley Police take offences of this nature extremely seriously and will investigate thoroughly to bring offenders to justice.

“I would like to pay tribute to the victim in this case who very bravely gave evidence in court.”
