Donna Lynn, 45, from Cleckheaton, was sentenced to three years for an offence of controlling prostitution.
Detective Chief Inspector Rob Stevens, from Kirklees District Police, said: "This has been a major investigation into truly appalling sexual abuse of vulnerable girls in Kirklees by a large number of sexual predators.
"Over an almost two-year period, juries have heard some shocking revelations about the dreadful way victims were abused by those involved.
"They were repeatedly sexually assaulted, in some cases given Class A drugs, and very much treated as commodities for the gratification of heartless predators.
He said the longer sentences handed to some of the men, such as Azam's 20-year sentence for 10 separate rapes, "speak volumes about their depravity and the abuse meted out to victims in this case".

JD Vance on the tragic murder of Henry Nowak in Southampton.
Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies , abandoned and handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, while accused of hate crimes he never committed.
His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today and he would be if European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and its people.
Time to wake up, Europe.
@JohnSwinney Well done John, another masterclass in economic self harm. Private jet tax and mansion tax to fund your socialist fantasy while businesses flee Scotland in droves. Absolute CUNT. Those “broadest shoulders” won’t be around much longer at this rate.
Genius strategy

As a proud Scot, I carry my sgian dubh as part of our national dress & tradition just like the longstanding exemptions for ceremonial blades.
Will you confirm there’ll be no ban on that either?
Fair treatment for all UK traditions right ?!

Takeaways from Scotland vs Curacao
Findlay Curtis has improved massively and looks like he could solve the issues we’ve had on the wings at Ibrox.
Tyler Fletcher looks like a player who can go on to become a huge asset for the Scotland midfield.
Hyam is bang average and I probably wouldn’t play him Ross McRorie is better than him.
Shankland scored a double. Just hope he keeps banging in the goals. Him and Chermiti up front would be a real force.
Overall, a decent run out for Scotland. Pretty excited to see how far Scotland can go in the World Cup. You never know what could happen all we know is these boys will be on their A-game as it could be some of their first and last World Cups.

The embarrassment who is British Prime minister @Keir_Starmer took a knee for the drug addict on the left but when a young British boy is killed and the police were derelict in their duty to save this man's life he stays silent .
The only person @Keir_Starmer takes a knee for is drug addicts and Ukrainian rent boys
🚨 A drive-by shooting targeting a purported Basij member has surfaced in a newly circulating video from Iran.
As internet access slowly returns across parts of the country, the footage reportedly shows armed anti-regime militants opening fire on a man outside a supermarket before chasing him inside and fleeing the scene.
It is widely believed that armed grassroots anti-regime movements have begun forming inside Iran to confront the regime’s brutality.
