These are the faces of 48 criminals locked up this month for a host of crimes.

Shocking cases range from a radio DJ who beat his wife so viciously she now has post traumatic stress disorder, to a major drugs gang that spread their influence across the country from Anfield.

Other sentencings include those of a vicar who preyed on children and a man who posed as a Justin Bieber lookalike online to dupe girls into sending indecent images.

LISA DOOLAN

Lisa Doolan, 45, of Mayfields North in New Ferry, was jailed for two years for two counts of gross indecency with a child and one of indecent assault of a child

Drug addicted Doolan helped elderly paedophiles abuse another child to remove herself from the “firing line” of sexual predators.

As a teenager she co-erced her victim into visiting the homes of men who would then rape and abuse her.

Doolan, now 45 and of Mayfields North in New Ferry, was jailed after a judge accepted she had also been sexually exploited - but said she had ultimately allowed her victim to become a “sexual object” for others to prey on.

She was jailed for two years after being found guilty of two counts of gross indecency with a child and one of indecent assault of a child.

DYLAN HAMER

Dylan Hamer, 42, of Falkland Road, Wallasey for possession of a bladed article received 16 months in prison

Mentally ill Hamer was found to be armed with a sword and a six-inch knife when he was stopped by security at Liverpool’s Lime Street Station.

Staff at the station alerted British Transport Police when they became suspicious of Hamer, who suffers from schizophrenia.

A police officer spoke to him and during the course of the conversation he passed the officer a snooker cue case.

Martyn Walsh, prosecuting, told Liverpool Crown Court: “The officer opened the case and saw a 12 inch blade which he believed had been sharpened.

“PC Hale seized the sword and went to arrest Hamer but as he took his handcuffs from his belt and approached him Mr Hamer seemed to panic and tried to push past him. Hamer then adopted a martial arts stance facing him.”

Dylan Hamer, 42, of Falkland Road, Wallasey for possession of a bladed article received 16 months in prison

The officer took out his CS gas spray and was able to arrest him. When searched a knife with a six inch blade was found hidden in his waistband at the small of his back.

When interviewed 42-year-old Hamer, whose previous convictions include possessing an offensive weapon, made no comment.

Cannabis dealer Alan Young spent five years hiding from justice on a Florida pig farm

Cannabis dealer Young was jailed after spending five years hiding on a pig farm in Florida.

He was booted out of America and handed over to Merseyside Police after a tip-off about his whereabouts led to extradition proceedings.

The 52-year-old, who was hiding on a girlfriend’s pig and chicken farm in Mims, Florida, had admitted growing a “commercial scale” cannabis farm in 2012.

But, after sentencing was adjourned, he boarded a one-way flight to the US and disappeared off the radar of police.

Young, formerly of Westminster Road, in Kirkdale, was jailed for three years and eight months at Liverpool Crown Court for the cultivation of cannabis, possession of the drug with intent to supply and failing to attend court.

MARC HENRY-WALLIS

Marc Henry-Wallis jailed for a vicious two-year campaign of bullying and violence that left his battered and bruised wife ‘a prisoner in her own life’

Radio DJ Henry-Wallis was jailed for a campaign of abuse against his wife that was so vicious it left her suffering post-traumatic stress disorder.

He beat his partner almost weekly - leaving her with two broken ribs in one devastating attack.

The consequences of his bullying are so severe his victim is now afraid to leave home and carries a panic alarm at all times, Manchester Evening News reported.

Henry-Wallis, of Avon Road, Pershore, Worcestershire, was jailed for four years after admitting five counts of assault causing actual bodily harm.

The 44-year-old, who was a DJ for Wigan and St Helens channel Wish FM, repeatedly assaulted his victim between October 2012 and October 2014.

RYAN QUIGLEY

Ryan Quigley, 22, of Kensington Road, Southport, jailed for 10 years after he admitted wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm

Jealous dad Ryan Quigley used his baby son to lure his ex-girlfriend to an ambush where he repeatedly slashed her face.

The 22-year-old tried to permanently disfigure Shelby Shearer, 18, because he believed it would make her less attractive to other men.

He trapped the mum – who had a new boyfriend – on a footbridge, before yelling: “If I can’t have you, then neither can he!”

Liverpool Crown Court heard Quigley slashed her face, then tried to stab her in the head and neck, only for the knife to break.

The victim was saved by a brave passer-by who tackled Quigley, who then tried to kill himself by jumping in front of a moving car.

Quigley, of Kensington Road in Southport, was charged with attempted murder, but admitted wounding with intent.

Jailing him for 10 years, Judge Neil Flewitt, QC, said the “jealous” dad “exploited” contact arrangements to attack his victim.

LAWRENCE FLAHERTY and PETER BYRNE

Peter Byrne and Lawrence Flaherty

Flaherty and Byrne were jailed after police discovered £1.2m of heroin and more than £500,000.

Tightly-packaged heroin parcels were found stashed underneath floorboards, concealed by a carpet, in Flaherty’s loft.

Police had watched taxi driver Peter Byrne hand over a suitcase full of rolled-up banknotes to the debt-ridden alcoholic.

Officers raided Flaherty’s flat on Scholes Lane, St Helens, and uncovered 12 kilos of heroin, with an estimated street value of £1.2m.

When asked if there was anything in his home that shouldn’t be there, he replied: “Yes, half a million pounds in that suitcase.”

Liverpool Crown Court heard Flaherty, 52, was a “custodian”, while Byrne, 57, was a “courier” for a Class A drugs gang.

Flaherty admitted possession of heroin with intent to supply and concealing criminal property. He was jailed for seven years and four months.

Byrne, now of Bakers Green Road, Huyton, admitted two counts of money laundering and was jailed for three years.

PAUL DEARY

Paul Deary, 53, of Landseer Road, Everton, jailed for 20 months after admitting wounding

Knife-wielding drug addict Deary smashed his girlfriend’s head into a wall, leaving her unconscious.

The 53-year-old demanded cash from Paula Carroll after ignoring a warning to stay away from her home.

He grabbed a kitchen knife and said if she called police he would “stick it in her”, before threatening to gag her with tea towels.

Prosecutors said Deary “smashed her head against a wall” and hit her with an object – possibly the knife – knocking her out cold.

Deary, of Landseer Road, Everton, made no comment when arrested by police, but later admitted wounding. He was jailed for 20 months.

HOWARD MCKAY

Drug addict Howard McKay

McKay smashed into a family’s car in the Mersey Tunnel after falling asleep at the wheel while high on drugs.

The 44-year-old sped along the Queensway Tunnel to Birkenhead, overtaking traffic before swerving into the wrong lane.

His Renault Clio crashed head-on with a Peugeot containing Cathy Bromsgrove, her husband Derek and their son.

Liverpool Crown Court heard the smash left the family suffering from neck and back injuries and wrote off the Peugeot.

When he came round McKay, of Oriel Road in Birkenhead, confessed to police that he had taken ecstasy.

Inside his car was a pipe and tin foil and the drug addict later tested positive for crack cocaine and heroin.

After he was bailed over the incident on January 20 this year, McKay went on a stealing spree starting on July 31 - even taking a charity collection box in one incident.

He admitted dangerous driving, unauthorised taking of a motor vehicle, two counts of theft and making off without payment.

McKay was jailed for 18 months.

MICHAEL LANDSBOROUGH

Michael Landsborough, 29, of Flaybrick Close, Bidston, was locked up for 38 weeks at Liverpool Magistrates Court

He launched drinks at Stephanie Whitehead and her friend Hannah Daly before punching Ms Whitehead to the face in a bizarre incident at the Cool Rooms club in Conway Street.

The 29-year-old, of Flaybrick Close, Bidston, was locked up for 38 weeks at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court after admitting assaulting the women.

He also admitted breaching a non-molestation order and bail conditions by bombarding his ex-girlfriend, Vicki Clayton, with foul racist abuse and sinister threats in separate incidents.

He was handed a five year restraining order banning him from contacting Ms Clayton.

MEHMET TEKEGAC

Mehmet Tekegac, 43, has been jailed after pocketing £98,000 in VAT

Takeaway owner Tekegac claimed benefits while pocketing almost £100,000 in VAT he charged his customers.

The 43-year-old claimed he made £9,000 a year from Top Grill Kebab and Pizza House in Warrington.

But after HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) investigators examined his bank records, his personal income and records of sales they found that he was hiding his earnings to avoid paying £31,244 due in corporation tax.

The court also heard how he had pocketed more than £98,000 in VAT he had charged his customers and shockingly had also claimed £49,528 in Child Tax Credits for his ‘low income’ family of six.

Tekegac, of Viscount Road, Padgate, pleaded guilty to three charges of fraud which totalled £179,000.

He was jailed for two years and six months and confiscation proceedings have also been launched to recover the money he owes.

YOHANN RAMCHELAWON

Undated handout photo issued by West Midlands Police of Yohann Ramchelawon,30, who has been jailed for 15 years at Stafford Crown Court, after he posed as a young Justin Bieber lookalike online to lure schoolgirls into sending him indecent webcam images.

Liverpool schoolgirls were duped into sending indecent webcam images to a 30-year-old man who posed as a Justin Bieber lookalike online.

Yohann Ramchelawon was jailed for 15 years for trapping children by using a photo of a teenage boy he took from the internet to create bogus social media profiles before grooming youngsters.

Ramchelawon, who was arrested in Huddersfield on March 6, utilised Instagram, WhatsApp, Skype and Facebook to target girls aged between 12 and 17.

Some of his victims were also coerced into performing sex acts in front of webcams after Ramchelawon threatened to share the images they had provided with friends and family.

Police traced an IP address used to message a 12-year-old Manchester girl to a house in Walsall.

There they found hundreds of indecent images on his digital devices as officers uncovered victims from Liverpool, Coventry and Walsall in the West Midlands, plus Lanark in Scotland, St Ives, Shoreham-by-sea and East Ham in London.

Ramchelawon - who gave his home address as Walls Street, Halifax, when arrested - was convicted of two counts of inciting a 12-year-old girl to engage in sex acts online, eight charges of possessing indecent images of children and two of distributing the images.

STEVEN MARTIN

Steven Martin, 22, of Ince Avenue in Walton, was jailed for two years at Liverpool Crown Court after admitting burglary.

The brother of two men who murdered an innocent teenage boy in cold blood was locked up for burgling an elderly couple.

Steven Martin will join his younger brother, John, and his older brother, Paul, in prison - where they are serving life sentences for the shotgun execution of 16-year-old Lewis Dunne.

Martin, of Ince Avenue in Walton, was jailed for two years at Liverpool Crown Court after admitting burgling the home of Maureen Brown and her husband Frank Thornthwaite.

The masked 22-year-old barged past the couple after they disturbed him with handfuls of jewellery – including an irreplaceable wedding and engagement ring passed down by Mrs Brown’s late mum.

The couple discovered that Martin and his accomplice, who has yet to be charged, swiped jewellery worth £7,000 along with a mobile phone and some cash.

Martin was eventually collared when he was recorded on CCTV selling his illicit haul to a city pawnbrokers.

JOSEPH ADEPETUN

Joseph Adepetun, 21, of no fixed address, locked up for 12 years for stabbing a man in the leg outside Empire on Seel Street

Knife-wielding thug Adepetun left a man for dead in a “horror” scene before calmly carrying on his New Year’s night out.

The convicted drug-dealer, 21, plunged a blade into the thigh of brick-layer Callum Dunne during a street brawl outside Empire bar in the city centre, severing his femoral artery.

Mr Dunne collapsed after bleeding so heavily he had zero blood pressure – but was saved thanks to hero passer-by Michael Sean Harrison and police officers PC Deborah Cashin and PC David Parker.

Adepetun, of no fixed address but from the Toxteth area, denied wounding with intent despite being filmed on CCTV thrusting a metallic object towards Mr Dunne, but was found guilty after a trial at Liverpool Crown Court last month.

Drunken Adepetun, who was on licence after serving a sentence for possession of a handgun and bullets at the time of the stabbing, claimed the object was a lighter.

This week the judge, Recorder Louise Brandon, ruled Adepetun was a dangerous offender in legal terms and jailed him for 12 years. In doing so she passed an ‘extended sentence’ - meaning he must serve at least eight years behind bars before being referred to a Parole Board.

MICHAEL BYRNE

Michael Joseph Byrne

Violent Byrne was locked up after a court heard he wanted to ‘drink his partner’s blood and carve his name inside her mouth’.

The 34-year-old was ordered to stay away from his partner after a series of incidents, including her being seen with two black eyes and bite marks to her ears and tongue.

Her family raised concerns, including that Byrne had told her he wanted to take blood from her arm with a needle and drink it “so she could be inside him forever”.

Last month Liverpool Magistrates’ Court imposed a Domestic Violence Protection Order (DVPO) after an application by Merseyside Police, banning Byrne from any contact with the victim for a month,

But Byrne admitted breaching the DVPO and was jailed for six weeks after police turned up at his home in Grosvenor Road, Walton, to find him with bloodied knuckles and the victim bleeding, hiding in a back alley.

Byrne has not been charged with any criminal offence against the victim, who did not cooperate with police enquiries, but the court was satisfied “on the balance of probabilities” that he had been violent towards her when it imposed the DVPO.

ADAM CARDEN and EDWARD OPOMU

Edward Opomu and Adam Carden

Carden and Opomu were jailed after admitting their roles in a shocking Orrell Park robbery.

The pair burst into a home where Opomu grabbed a man by the throat while Carden wielded a machete.

Carden, 26, of Summer Seat in Vauxhall, was jailed for five years and eight months.

Opomu, 41, of Hartington Road in Toxteth, was jailed for six years and eight months.

EDWARD WHELAN

Edward Whelan, 31, of Dombey Street, Toxteth, jailed for two and a half years after being found guilty of inflicting grievous bodily harm and assault causing actual bodily harm

Liverpool council gym instructor Whelan battered a son and his dad in a “feral and ferocious” city centre attack.

The 31-year-old was so drunk on a night out that he fell into Angela Inman at a taxi rank and knocked her to the ground.

When Mrs Inman’s son James rushed over and pushed him away to get her up, a woman with Whelan threw a punch at him.

Liverpool Crown Court heard James grabbed the female by the arm, at which point Whelan punched him in the face.

Stella Hayden, prosecuting, said James recalled being kicked to the head and curling up in a ball as a group of men stamped on him.

He then saw his dad Peter, who was knocked to the ground, being stamped on and repeatedly punched by Whelan.

The court heard Peter got to his feet and tried to reason with Whelan, who punched him again, before he was restrained.

Whelan, of Dombey Street, Toxteth, who had no previous convictions, said he couldn’t remember the incident.

However, he said based on the account of his girlfriend Katie Martlew, he must have acted in self-defence.

He was jailed for two and a half years after being found guilty after a trial of inflicting grievous bodily harm on James and assault causing actual bodily harm to Peter.

IAN GALTRESS

Ian Galtress, 46, of Deans Way, Birkenhead, jailed for 22 weeks after admitting six counts of theft and failing to surrender

Heroin addict Galtress claimed his life was destroyed by losing a winning lottery ticket.

The dad-of-four, of Deans Way in Birkenhead, bought two tickets for a Euromillions draw at the same time.

One ticket was a single digit away from matching a raffle code, which would have netted him £1m, but he said he lost the other ticket.

After watching in horror as Camelot appealed for a missing Wirral winner, Galtress claimed he had sunk into a severe depression.

And Liverpool Crown Court heard that, earlier this year, he stole items worth hundreds of pounds in a shoplifting spree.

The 46-year-old indicated a not guilty plea before magistrates and elected for a trial at the higher court, which has stiffer sentencing powers.

By the time he appeared in the dock he decided to plead guilty, but then failed to attend his sentencing and went on the run.

Galtress, who also skipped a probation meeting to see if he could undergo community-based drug rehabilitation, was arrested a day later.

He was jailed for 22 weeks after admitting six counts of theft and failing to surrender.

STEPHEN GEE

Stephen Gee, 36, of Maryport Close, Everton, jailed for six years and eight months with an extended four years on licence after admitting robbery

Gee brutally robbed an OAP while high on cocaine and his dead brother’s anti-psychotic medication.

The 36-year-old pretended to be a Liverpool City Council officer to con a 77-year-old widower after he caught him kerb-crawling.

He made the pensioner drive home to show him ID, where he demanded the elderly victim hand over a £1,000 ‘fine’, or £100 deposit.

When the OAP said he didn’t have any cash, the thug punched him in the face, before repeatedly kicking and stamping on him.

Gee then stole the victim’s car, but the bungling yob had drunk from a can of Coke, which he left on the sideboard, revealing his DNA.

Liverpool Crown Court heard he went off the rails after his brother Billy Gee, 38, was found hanged last year.

Desmond Lennon, defending, said: “He has been unable to cope with the loss of his brother.

“Unhappily, he reverted back to a lifestyle he had freed himself from.”

Gee, of Maryport Close in Everton, admitted robbery and was jailed for six years and eight months, with an extended four years on licence.

Robert Edwards-Sutton, of Lansdowne Road, Oxton, who was jailed for 11 months. A suspended sentence imposed for criminal damage and burglary was activated by a judge after he spat at a police officer

Edwards-Sutton was jailed after spitting in the face of a policeman.

The drug addict - who has committed 116 previous offences - had a suspended prison sentence hanging over him at the time he was arrested and taken to Wirral custody suite on suspicion of offences.

Liverpool Crown Court heard those matters were later not proceeded with but while in his cell he urinated on the floor and wrapped his t-shirt around his neck.

Concerned officers went in to Edwards-Sutton, believed to be under the influence of drugs, to remove his clothes to prevent him harming himself, said Iain Criddle, prosecuting.

He was restrained after a struggle and as the officers were leaving Sergeant Graham Williams slipped on the wet floor and the defendant then spat in his face.

Sentencing him to a total of 11 months imprisonment the judge, Recorder David Knifton, said, “It was a despicable act because of the considerable concern to that police officer, not because of the infliction of serious injury, but the risks that a known drug user could cause.”

The defendant, of Lansdowne Road, Oxton, had pleaded guilty to assaulting Sgt Williams.

CHRISTIAN ROBINSON

Christian Robinson

Crack cocaine fuelled robber Christian Robinson slashed a convenience store manager’s face leaving him scarred for life – over just £20.

The 26-year-old entered Holly’s Mini Market in Anfield when George Calin was sorting out newspapers at 6.40am.

The masked thug, who was wielding a large knife in his right hand, walked up to the 25-year-old and said: “I only want £20.”

Liverpool Crown Court heard the victim replied “you’re joking?” but drunken Robinson slashed him across the nose and cheek.

The victim was in “a state of shock and panic” as Robinson turned his attention to shop assistant Arrthiga Neethenathan.

The yob pointed the knife at the 23-year-old, who described herself as “terrified and shivering”, and again demanded £20.

The knife wielded by Christian Robinson, 26, of Lower Breck Road, Anfield, jailed for six years and eight months with an extended three years on licence after admitting assault with intent to commit robbery, robbery and possession of an offensive weapon

KYLE MORGAN

Kyle Morgan

Homeless Kyle Morgan was jailed for sneaking into a hotel swimming pool to wash himself.

The 30-year-old, of no fixed abode, pretended to be a paying guest at the Novotel hotel in Hanover Street and followed other residents into the bathing pool area, which could only be accessed by entering a keycode.

Liverpool Magistrates’ Court heard that Morgan stripped and left his clothes strewn around the changing room, before entering the pool.

But when hotel staff became suspicious and challenged him, Morgan falsely claimed he was a hotel guest and became increasingly aggressive.

Morgan was eventually arrested and told officers he had been living on the streets for three weeks and felt dirty and wanted to get a wash.

Vicky Balenski, defending, said Morgan “had issues” with his health and accommodation, and also suffered PTSD, although his claim that he had been in the army was false.

She said he had been homeless since being released from an earlier custodial sentence, adding: “He was dirty and needed a wash and did not have access to any other facilities.”

District Judge Wendy Lloyd told Morgan, who appeared in custody after failing to attend a previous hearing: “It’s sad that there’s nowhere you could get washed. Years ago you could do that, indeed we used to be world leaders in that respect.

“However your nastiness to hotel staff was uncalled for and you have not engaged with the probation service.”

Morgan, who pleaded guilty to charges of obtaining services by dishonest means and for breaches of post-sentence supervision, was jailed for a total of 28 days, of which he must serve half.

ROBERT PETERS

One of his victims, now a grown man, said: “When he turned up to take the service at my dad’s funeral I felt sick.”

Liverpool Crown Court heard that the offences, which began in the 1960s, only came to light after one of Peters’ victims had an emotional breakdown while the Jimmy Saville sex abuse scandal came to prominence in the media.

Peters, of Chester, was jailed for two years after pleading guilty to 12 indecent assaults.
