One murderer, Damien Bendall, killed his partner, her two children and their young friend and was sentenced to a ‘whole life’ term of imprisonment which means he will spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Other offenders have also been taken off the streets for a very long time. These include a sex-offender who abused two children and was jailed for 31 years, a violent rapist who was sentenced to 18 years of custody and offenders linked to drug gangs who resorted to murder.

10. Jordan Davies and Jacob Carroll
Two murderers, Jordan Davies and Jacob Carroll, were sentenced to life imprisonment after teenager Joe Sarpong was stabbed and bled to death in a Halloween attack. Sheffield Crown Court heard during a sentencing hearing in August, 2022, how 27-year-old Jacob Carroll, pictured right, and 26-year-old Jordan Davies, pictured left, both of no fixed abode, were both found guilty by a trial jury of murdering 18-year-old Joevester Takyi-Sarpong, known as Joe. Prosecuting barrister Mark McCone had told the jury the defendants had chased Joe before he was stabbed and murdered on October 31, 2021, and his body was found near to the derelict former Doncaster County Court building the following morning. Judge Richardson sentenced both Carroll and Davies to life imprisonment and told them they must both serve a minimum of 22 years before they can be considered for release. Photo: SYP
