The 30-year-old from Northampton was jailed for a year and nine months after breaching a Sexual Harm Prevention Order by opening Instagram and Snapchat accounts.

20. Ray Hurren
Hurren sobbed his way through a court hearing after admitting a string of violent offences including strangling his girlfriend to the point she feared he would kill her. The 40-year-old of Wellington Street, Kettering, also punched his victim multiple times to the face, head and back and smashed her against a wall before she fled, barefoot. He pleaded guilty to five counts of criminal damage, one of intentional strangulation, one of actual bodily harm and two of common assault — and was sentenced to 20 months.
