A robber who targeted a bank and a post office while armed with an imitation firearm, a rapist taxi driver and a dad who was on the run for nearly six months were among the Merseyside criminals jailed over the last week.
Also locked up was a teen who posed as an Amazon delivery driver before forcing his way into the home of a man he wrongly suspected was a sex offender while armed with a knife. Meanwhile, Liverpool Crown Court was told a homeless man stabbed a fellow rough sleeper outside a Tesco store after a row over a "pitch".
Here are the faces of 16 criminals from our region who were imprisoned in the past week.
