Read MoreA Lincolnshire family who kept slaves benefited to the sum of almost £4m, Nottingham Crown Court heard today.
Twelve members of the Rooney family were jailed for a total of over 90 years for their roles in what was called the biggest slavery ring in British legal history.
Over £1m was confiscated by the courts today and the Rooneys face further jail time if they fail to pay within three months.
The majority of the confiscated funds will be paid to their surviving victims, in terms of compensation and ‘wages in lieu’.
Police looking into the disappearance of a man from Lincolnshire nearly 20 years ago, say they've tried everything to find him, including drones.
Glyn Taylor (pictured) disappeared in broad daylight on a road near Spalding in 2001.
As technology has developed, police have started using new techniques to find out what happened.
But Detective Superintendent Jon McAdam, who's involved in the operation, says police have "no idea what happened to him or where he is" but say they review the case on a yearly basis.
But despite two decades passing, Glyn's childhood friend has set up a Facebook page, desperate to find anyone who may have seen him all those years ago.
Quote MessageWe wish we knew where he was. If he's listening, just get in touch with us, you're not in trouble. We want to know. We just want to give you a hug and say everything's going to be fine.

Lincoln's biggest private employer says it's investing millions of pounds into its research and development facility in the city.
Tech firm Siemens, which makes gas turbines in the city, says the £6.5m investment will also see some employees move from its factory site on the outskirts of Lincoln to its city centre site.
The firm has been based in the city since the 1970s and is based on the site where aircraft and tanks were made during World Wars One and Two.
The Met Office has issued weather warnings for Lincolnshire this weekend.

It warns that "injuries and danger to life from flying debris" may be possible:

A homeless man who served in the Army in Afghanistan is staging a protest to request a flat from Lincoln City Council.
Tom Foley, who was in the Army for five years, has pitched a tent outside City Hall to appeal for a home.
He says he's "gone down every avenue" and registered with "every charity" to try and find a suitable place to live.
Lincoln City Council says it's offered him a bedsit, but he's refused it because he says it's too small to accommodate his four children.

Parts of Lincoln cathedral will be in the dark overnight, while new floodlights are fitted.
The current floodlights were installed in 1977, and new environmentally friendly LED ones will replace them.
Over the nine months the new ones are being fitted parts of the cathedral will be without lighting temporarily.
The new lights will no longer cast an orange glow on the cathedral though, they'll be a softer white light.
Students in Lincoln are playing truant today to protest against what they say is inaction against climate change.
The students from Lincoln Christ's Hospital School say they're protesting because they feel "not enough is being done about climate change".
It comes after students internationally have staged protests for the same reason.
The government says: "While it's important for young people to engage with issues like climate change, the disruption to planned lesson time was damaging for pupils."

A Lincolnshire police officer has been forced to justify having a coffee break while on duty.
Sgt Mike Templeman was having a hot drink with some colleagues when a member of the public asked whether it was the best use of taxpayers' money.
Sgt Templeman says he often receives funny looks when on a break while in uniform - but until now, he'd never had anyone say anything to him:
Quote MessageOne of the reasons I encourage all my staff to go out and have their breaks out if they can is because we're visible. People are always saying the police aren't visible. So we try to be, and we can respond quicker to jobs."

A fairly dull start with plenty of cloud today along with some mist pockets of drizzle.
Watch my full forecast here:
A giant replica of the moon is to be installed at a museum in Lincoln.
The work, pictured above at St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh earlier this year, is by artist Luke Jerram and appeared at Hull Minster last year as part of the Freedom Festival.
The 23ft (7m) diameter orb, covered in detailed NASA imagery of the Earth's surface, is 1.8 million times smaller than the real thing.
It'll be shown at the The Collection museum in Lincoln until the end of April.
Freshcook, at Holbeach St Marks, is starting a consultation over the proposed closure.
