Among those facing justice was a rapist who was deemed a danger to lone women, and a cannabis "manager" who helped harvest 15kg of the drug.
Here are 10 of the criminals who were handed jail terms in the last week, with sentences ranging from several months to years -
1. Grant Mitchell
Grant Mitchell, 31, of Scotchman Lane, Morley, was sentenced to 16 months' imprisonment after admitting charges of making indecent images - 60 in total. He was found with the vile images of children being abused when he was on bail after a first batch of sickening pictures were found. Photo: James Hardisty
