2. Lee Glover
"Persistent" paedophile Lee Glover downloaded hundreds of child abuse images. He even asked the person behind an online account to send vile pictures of her own daughter - but this person was later revealed to be an undercover police officer posing as a mother to catch paedophiles. As well as asking for pictures of the child, Glover shared indecent images of children with the cop, some involving a baby or toddler. The 34-year-old was arrested and police found 378 images that he had tried to wipe from a phone. Glover was jailed for three years and eight months and handed a tougher sexual harm prevention order, to run indefinitely. Photo: West Yorkshire Police
3. Christopher Richold
Christopher Richold, 38, was caught twice by police with thousands of pounds worth of heroin and crack cocaine. Leeds Crown Court heard that he had been addicted to the drugs himself and got into debt, so was forced to become a dealer. He was initially pulled over on suspicion of having false plates on his Honda bike. Richold tried to ride off but stalled the machine and was quickly apprehended. He was jailed for four years.

4. Josh Walsh
Josh Walsh, 28, smashed his way into a former friend’s home and stole cash. During the summer, Walsh waited until the victim had gone out before hurling a brick through his home near Wakefield. It came after he had been to ask the victim for £20, but was only given £10 and warned to stay away. Smashing into the home, Walsh stole around £60 in cash. He has 28 previous convictions for 59 offences, including two for burglary. As a third-strike burglar, Walsh, of Pennine Way, Upton, was given 21 months in jail. Photo: West Yorkshire Police
