Partners in crime: The Merseyside couples who were in court together

From a couple who sold a firearm to a gangster to fund a "luxurious lifestyle" to a paedophile pair whose "depravity really knows no depths", these are the Merseyside couples whose offending landed them in the dock together.

Some of the crimes were truly horrific, including those of David and Julie Morris whose repeated abuse was branded "almost beyond belief" by a judge. But others were motivated by financial gain, such as Kevin Barlow and Emma Rodgers, career criminals who held a petrified man at knife point in his own home.

These couples have all appeared in Liverpool's court rooms because of their shared criminal activity. These people have proven that good things don't always come in pairs.
