Charges are allegations only. All arrested persons are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
MURRAY, Utah () — A Magna man has been charged with sexually abusing children at the daycare where he was an employee. It is currently unknown whether he is still employed at the daycare.
Shawn David Beebe, 38, has been charged with seven counts of first-degree aggravated sexual abuse of a child.
According to a detective with the Murray Police Department, on Feb. 19, 2025, the detective was made aware that a daycare employee may have been sexually abusing children. He took reports from the parents of three children who told their parents about what happened.
Three children, all aged six years old or younger, told their parents that Beebe had touched them inappropriately while at daycare. One child, in a Children's Justice Center interview, said that they didn't tell their mother what happened because they were afraid Beebe would be fired.
A warrant has been issued for Beebe's arrest; he is not in custody at this time. The daycare has not been identified by officials, and ABC4 is investigating where he was or is employed.
There is no further information at this time.
