A 27-year-old White Swan man has been sentenced to 40 years in federal prison for the Aggravated Sexual Abuse of a Child and sexual abuse of a minor.

“My heart breaks for the victims in this case. I am grateful for their courage to come forward and engage with law enforcement to seek justice,” stated U.S. Attorney Vanessa Waldref.

“Two children’s lives were forever impacted by Mr. Bobb’s grievous actions.” said Richard A. Collodi, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Seattle field office.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Yakama Nation Police Department. This case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael Murphy. The sentences were handed down on July 31, 2023, in Yakima, Washington.
