Sex offender given 15-year extended sentence following conviction




A man who was convicted of several sexual offences in Staffordshire has been sentenced to 15-years.

Kieran Huthwaite, 31, of Bentilee, Stoke-on-Trent, abused the survivors who eventually came forward and reported what had happened.

He was reported to police and arrested in November 2021. He denied what happened.

We started work to gather evidence which resulted in Huthwaite being charged and sent to court.

Following a trial at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court, the jury reached a verdict on 31 January 2024 that Huthwaite was guilty of two counts of assault of a female under 13, one count of rape of a female under 16, one count of attempted rape of a female over 16, one count of sexual assault of a girl under 13 and one count sexual assault of a female over 16.

On Tuesday (21 May), he was given a 15-year extended sentence. He was also handed an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order and put on the Sex Offenders Register for life.

Detective Constable Tiffany Berry, who worked on the case, said: “We were able to convict Huthwaite for his crimes thanks to the tremendous courage and bravery the survivors showed in coming forward and reporting the incidents.

“We’re here to support anyone who has suffered sexual abuse. We have a team of specialist officers who can investigate these matters with the aim of bringing those responsible to justice.”
