Sex offenders, fraudsters and drug dealers are among the criminals and crooks who have been jailed in April for crimes in and around Peterborough.
Among those jailed was Wayne Sharman, who robbed a shop in Peterborough at knifepoint. He got away from the shop with cash and menthol cigarettes – but was jailed for six years after he dropped his balaclava, and was linked to the crime through DNA evidence.
Also jailed was fraudster Anthony Atkins, who was locked up after breaching a strict court order that banned him from door knocking residents.
These are not all the people jailed during April – just those who had their picture released by Cambridgeshire Police.
