Paedophile Hans is already serving a jail sentence for sexually touching a young girl, but a second victim came forward after he was convicted. He was returned to Leeds Crown Court this week where he faced two more fresh charges. The 54-year-old from Leeds pleaded guilty and was given an additional 12 months' jail on top of the 28 months he is already serving. In a heartfelt statement from the victim's mother, she labelled Hans a "monster" and said he had inflicted emotional scars on the youngster that "may never heal". Photo: WYP
8. Steven Feasby
Cancer patient Steven Feasby became involved in a serious burglary and an armed robbery after he quit his job and began taking drugs to help cope with his diagnosis, Leeds Crown Court was told. The 41-year-old broke into a Co-op in Hollin Park and helped steal thousands of pounds worth of cigarettes. He also became embroiled in an armed robbery in Huddersfield in which £60,000 was stolen, by supplying the gang with fake number plates for their cars, while his Amberton Mount home in Hollin Park was due to be used as a safe house for the stolen cash. He was jailed for seven-and-a-half-years. Photo: WYP
