Trumbull County Father Sentenced For Child Abuse

The father convicted of seriously injuring his 10-week-old baby will spend the next eight years behind bars.

Jeremy Hendrex was sentenced on child endangering and felonious assault after a jury found him guilty of causing tramatic brain injury to now two-year-old Alyssa Jarome.

Hendrex had nothing to say at his sentencing. But Jarome's mother did. She asked the judge for the maximum sentence.

After the hearing Hendrex's wife defended him. Hendrex will likely appeal the conviction.
