Judges handed down lengthy sentences for some of the most serious offences, including rape, drug trafficking, murder and fraud.
Others were jailed for theft, breaching court orders and causing fatal crashes.
Here, we take a look at the faces of those put behind bars and the crimes that saw them brought to justice:
1. Martin Crossley
Martin Crossley, 41, of no fixed address but originally from Walton-le-Dale, was described as a “dangerous and predatory” rapist who bragged he “saw women as pieces of meat”. Crossley repeatedly raped a woman in east Lancashire in 2022 and, while under investigation, raped a teenage girl the following year. He admitted five counts of rape at Preston Crown Court and was jailed for 19-and-a-half years, with a further five years on licence. | Lancashire Police
