A thug who dragged his girlfriend down the street, a teenage boy who raped a girl before threatening her with a knife and a man who sexually abused two children were among the Merseyside criminals jailed over the last week.
Also locked up was a man who throttled his girlfriend at the Hard Days Night Hotel and later hid in another guest's room. Another man flew into a violent rage and brutally attacked his friend after he told him to "shut up".
Liverpool Crown Court also heard how one man preyed on a teenage girl while pretending to be helping her study for her GCSE's. In a statement to the court, the victim said she had to attend counselling and suffered from depression and anxiety.
