Dangerous criminals are sentenced every week at Liverpool Crown Court for a variety of crimes.

Rapists and paedophiles are often brought to justice thanks to the bravery of their victims, who are left mentally scarred forever. Gun thugs who endanger lives, putting at risk the safety of innocent bystanders with firearms, are treated very seriously by the courts.
