HENDERSON, KY - A Henderson man has been sentenced to prison for child abuse.

Court records show Nathaniel Herrell was sentenced on Monday to five years in prison for abusing his 7-month-old baby. He pleaded guilty to the abuse last month.

Herrell and his wife Kalandis were arrested last year after their baby was brought to the hospital with numerous skull fractures and a broken arm.

Kalandis Herrell pleaded guilty to wanton endangerment last month and received three years probation, according to court records.
