A vile paedophile who posed as a teenager online and was found in a hotel room with two missing girls is among the criminals locked up in Greater Manchester in the last seven days.
An Audi driver who led police on two high-speed chases through the streets of Bolton while disqualified from driving has also been put behind bars, along with a former Manchester City executive who stole more than £100,000 to pay for her wedding.
Prison sentences are handed out to the worst offenders each week and Manchester Evening News reporters are in court to cover the most serious cases.
