DISGRACED former assistant headteacher Stuart Rees has become a pariah since his arrest for looking at sickening child abuse images.

The 51-year-old former geography teacher at Gwernyfed High School, in Three Cocks, near Brecon, was this week jailed after admitting charges related to the possession of indecent images of children, aged between two and nine-years-old.

Rees, of Beeches Park, Boughrood, near Brecon, also admitted making available to view a horrifying child abuse video.

At his sentencing hearing at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court this week, the judge was shown a letter written by Rees in which he described the material as his 'temptress'.

His defence told the court the teacher of 30-years-experience had been cut off by his adult daughters since his arrest in June 2013 but retained the support of his wife.
