Seven men have so far been sent to prison for their actions at the protest last week.

Judge Mousley imposed terms ranging from two years to three years and two months.

All of the previous defendants admitted a charge of violent disorder.

Some also pleaded guilty to possessing offensive weapons, including a bin, a traffic cone and a dog lead with a metal carabiner attached.

A total of 21 people, including the seven, have been charged over the violent scenes.

The violent disorder broke out in Southampton after police bodycam footage was released showing 18-year-old Henry Nowak being handcuffed as he lay dying.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary is being investigated over the incident by the Independent Office for Police Conduct.

On 1 June, the day before the protests, Vickrum Digwa, 23, was jailed for life with a minimum term of 21 years for the murder. He stabbed Nowak with a large blade, which he said he carried because of his Sikh faith.

Digwa had lied to police, telling them he had been the victim of a racist attack by Nowak.

On Wednesday, Judge Mousley said the violence seen at the protest was "borne out of hatred of the police and in some cases racist views".

Previously, the judge said the police's failure to immediately attend to Nowak's injury did not contribute to his death.

Reporting from Southampton Crown Court

We'll be bringing you live updates as five people are due in court in connection with violent disorder that broke out at a protest in Southampton last week following the murder of Henry Nowak.

A crowd initially took part in a demonstration at the city centre police station on 2 June before gathering close to the murder scene and the family home of his killer.

Chairs, wheelie bins and bricks were thrown, injuring 12 police officers and a police dog.

Judge William Mousley KC is due to sentence four protesters at Southampton Crown Court, with a fifth defendant expected to enter a plea to a charge of violent disorder.

That's the end of our coverage.

Here's a round-up of today's events.

We'll be back tomorrow afternoon when we're expecting more sentences to be handed down.

At least four more defendants are due to be sentenced by Judge William Mousley tomorrow afternoon, having already pleaded guilty to violent disorder.

• Darren Medhurst, 36, of Carnation Road, Southampton
• Tyler Burley, 18, of Shakespeare Ave, Southampton
• Callum Darch, 27, of St Blaize Road, Romsey
• Harley Haynes, 23, of Avenue Road, Southampton

In addition, Kamil Josef Klonek, 33, of Lordswood Road in Southampton, is due to enter a plea to the same charge.

The custody images of the three men jailed this afternoon have just been released by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary.

Today's sentences bring us to seven men now in jail for their part in the violent protest in Southampton last week.

They are:

• Andrew Summerhayes - three years and two months
• Leon O'Leary - three years and one month
• Dillon Crawford - three years
• Connor Bishop - two years and eight months
• Taylor Grundy - two-and-a-half years
• Daniel Frost - two years and four months
• Reece Robinson - two years

Andrew Summerhayes' sentence of three years and two months is the longest to be handed out so far following the Southampton disorder.

In addition to the charge of violent disorder faced by all defendants, the 38-year-old from Romsey pleaded guilty to possessing a bin and a traffic cone as offensive weapons.

Twenty-one people have so far been charged by Hampshire police.

Of the 10 defendants who have been dealt with at Southampton Crown Court today and yesterday, seven men have been jailed and three cases have been adjourned.

So far, the lowest sentence handed down has been two years in prison.

Taylor Grundy cries continuously in the dock after being sentenced, as do his parents in the public gallery.

His distraught father calls out: "I love you, mate", as the defendant is led to the cells.

Dillon Crawford, whose partner is expecting his third child, shouts to the gallery: "Look after our girl", before he is taken away.

The defendants will spend up to half of their sentences in custody before being released on licence, the judge says.

Andrew Summerhayes is jailed for three years and two months.

Taylor Grundy weeps uncontrollably as he is given a sentence of two-and-a-half years.

Dillon Crawford receives a three-year jail sentence.

Andrew Summerhayes was "at the forefront of serious public disorder", the judge says.

His actions "plainly encouraged and added to the threat" faced by police officers, even if he failed to hit them with a thrown bin and traffic cone, Judge Mousley adds.

Another defendant Taylor Grundy helped others to push a large commercial bin which had been set alight towards the police line, the judge points out.

"I have read a letter written by your father and it is no understatement to say that your behaviour has brought shame upon your family," the judge tells him.

Dillon Crawford also added to the danger faced by officers, the court hears.

Judge William Mousley KC is repeating his broader comments on the effects of the violent disorder on 2 June, before he moves to sentencing.

He reminds the court that 12 police officers were injured and substantial damage was caused to property and vehicles in Southampton.

The court empties as Judge William Mousley KC adjourns the hearing to consider his sentences.

The final defendant, Dillon Crawford, has written a letter of remorse to the judge, the court is told.

"I am disgusted at my actions... My emotions took over. I have let my family down and Henry's [Nowak] family down," the letter says.

Barrister Francisca da Costa says her client "felt he had to do something" when he saw the police body-worn video of murder victim Henry Nowak being arrested.

The 29-year-old from Southampton tried to stop youths pulling a wall down during the violence and left the protest when he saw it was becoming dangerous, Ms da Costa says.

The father of two will miss the birth of his third child while in prison, she adds.

A second defence barrister is addressing the judge.

Taylor Grundy travelled from Gosport with three friends to join the protest, with an "astounding misunderstanding of the root causes" of it, the lawyer says.

During the violence, the defendant "let go of a wheelie bin whilst others took it on towards a police cordon", he adds.

He threw pieces of wood at police but was "not right on the frontline", the barrister tells the court.

"He's not a shepherd, he's a sheep... He got swept up on the tide of anger and emotion and when others were behaving so despicably, he joined in."

It is the turn of defence barristers to address the court.

Andrew Summerhayes has a two-year-old daughter "who benefits from a close and active relationship with her father", his representative tells the court.

The former drug user's last conviction is nearly 10 years old as a result of "steps to address his offending behaviour", the barrister tells the court.

The unemployed former bricklayer from Romsey was walking home when "he saw the crowd and got involved against his better judgement", she says.

The third defendant, Dillon Crawford, "enthusiastically and aggressively pushed his way to the front of the crowd pursuing retreating police in Belmont Road", the barrister continues.

He threw a brown bin and a metal chair "with some force" at the officers, the court is told.

Upon his arrest, he told police he attended the protest at Southampton Central Police Station before walking two miles to the scene of the violence.

He said he was not a racist, was "angry in the moment and lost himself" and said he has two children with a third on the way, the barrister says.

Crawford has 19 convictions for 33 offences including battery, robbery, burglary and shoplifting.

On one occasion, he broke a partner's front teeth, punched her unconscious and when she woke up told her he had put bleach in her hair, the court is told.

Taylor Grundy is the next defendant to be discussed.

In a video played in court, the 22-year-old is pictured sitting on top of a wall before disappearing, apparently to pick up pieces of wood and throw them at police, the prosecutor tells the court.

He also pushed a communal wheelie bin towards officers in a separate incident, the court hears.

Grundy has two previous convictions and is currently under a community order for driving while disqualified and having no insurance.

The prosecutor begins to discuss the three defendants who sit behind her in the glass-fronted dock.

Andrew Summerhayes stood close to a line of police officers in Belmont Road, failing to move out of their way when asked, she says.

"The defendant picked up a large bin... he rammed it... seemingly intent on catching the police" before tripping over in the road, the barrister adds.

In a video played in court, several protesters are seen running with wheelie bins towards retreating officers.

A voice says: "They're running them out, they're running them out. They're chasing them with bins."

Summerhayes then picked up a traffic cone before dropping it, the prosecutor tells the court.

Afterwards, the defendant said in a police interview that police were "paedophiles" and made no further comment, the barrister says.

The 38-year-old has 25 convictions for 45 offences, the court hears.
