Here are 19 north Northamptonshire criminals who have been brought to justice.
9. CHRISTOPHER JOHNSON AND PIPER CORSTIN
This hapless couple dragged council workers and police to court to appeal their conviction for ignoring notices ordering them to stop burning rubbish in their Kettering garden - but Johnson admitted the offences just a few minutes in
10. EMILY EVANS-SCHREIBER
The Naseby socialite, who used to design clothes for models Cara and Poppy Delevingne, stole 230,000 from her dying grandmother before splurging on hotels whilst she lived the high life in America. She was given a suspended jail term.
11. HARRY ALLISON-NORMAN
The Wicksteed Park worker stole more than 1,000 by issuing fake refunds to his own account. He will be sentenced next week.
12. MATTHEW MCGRADY
Kettering's Matthew McGrady was supposed to be caring for two vulnerable men. Instead, he abused his position to steal 16,000. A judge spared him from prison because of his own health problems.
