Among those facing justice were a drunken thug who put his partner through an “unforgiveable” assault at her Leeds home, an obsessive stalker who made threats to a woman, and a “compulsive shopper” who drained nearly £70,000 from dead people’s accounts while she worked for a care company.
The criminals all appeared before judges in the city, with jail sentences ranging from just a few months up to several years.
