Despite the lockdown, UK courts are still working hard to bring some of the most notorious criminals in the country to justice.
Rapists, killers, child abusers, fraudsters and thugs are put behind bars every week - and these are some of the shocking cases that were widely reported, across the country, in April.
In Merseyside, a rapist was jailed after police found videos of his crimes against children on his laptop, while a drink driver was locked up for killing two people when he ran a set of red lights.
Meanwhile, in Bristol, a man was locked up for recklessly infecting three women with HIV knowing full well he had the life-changing virus.
