8. Myles James Winfarrah
The convicted sex offender from Northampton was sentenced to 14 months after he failed to notify police about a developing relationship. Winfarrah, 26, was convicted in 2019 of sexual assault against a woman and placed on the Sex Offenders’ Register. But in March 2024 he breached his requirements when he had sex with someone without disclosing their identity to police within seven days of the event and staying in a property where a child resided.
