Dales jailbirds

Charity was framed for the murder of husband Chris Tate - by Chris himself, who drank poison and then called the police. She couldn't prove her innocence and was put away for life!

Sam spent some time in jail for accidentally mowing Edna Birch down in his car and driving off.

Nasty vet Hari was arrested for dangerous driving and given a jail sentence for attacking Louise.

Remember when Chas woke up in bed with a dead Colin MacFarlane? She was arrested and taken in for questioning. 

This ladylike fight in a restaurant was all because they both wanted to date Ross Kirk...

Disturbing the peace? Yes we think so. They both spent the night in jail for that!

Andy confessed to starting the fire that killed his foster mother, Sarah, in 2000. He went to jail for manslaughter, but not for very long.

Grayson tried to frame Matthew for murdering his mother, Rosemary. But his plan was foiled when Perdy realised what was going on. 

By the time Sam realised he was a drug-runner for Eli, it was too late.

Ross hitched a ride in Sam's cab and fell upon a package filled with cannabis. Sam was banged up for a few days until the cops realised he knew nothing about it.

Dodgy Eli finally got his comeuppance and was put in a cell until he grassed on Lily Butterfield.

It was Lily who had been growing cannabis for medicinal purposes, until Eli blackmailed her so he could start selling it.
Luckily for her, Edna got rid of the evidence so the police couldn't arrest her.

When Katie gave Grayson's son to Perdy so they could run away, Grayson was left with nothing. He was jailed for the night when he was found scouting for men in Hotten Park. 

More recently, Eli was arrested on suspicion of killing Shane Doyle. He was only released after revealing what really happened with Debbie and Jasmine.

Debbie may have saved Jasmine from being raped by Shane Doyle, but served several weeks in prison while her friend and lover fled.

Luckily for Debbie, Jasmine showed up at the last minute and confessed all to the court. She is now serving four years for manslaughter.
