Lance Martin Nolan.jpgRANCHO CUCAMONGA -- A man convicted of physically abusing his 84-year-old mother was sentenced Wednesday in West Valley Superior Court to three years in prison.

Lance Martin Nolan, 50, allegedly choked his mother in February in the woman's Rancho Cucamonga home, then pressed a pillow into her face as she tried to scream for help.

Nolan, a registered sex offender who was convicted of forcible sodomy in 1996, was initially charged with attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon for the alleged attack.

Prosecutors agreed to drop the two counts against Nolan in exchange for a no contest plea last month to elder abuse.

three years,will probably serve 1.5 due to the system.Why not give him 30 years,then he'll do at least 15 years.What kind of prosecutors do we have in the court system.
