Man gets eight years in child endangering case

WARREN — A former Weathersfield man convicted by jury of felonious assault and child endangering has been sentenced to eight years in prison.

Jeremy Hendrex, 29, of Sandusky, caused serious injuries to his 10-week-old daughter in 2007 while living with the child’s mother in Weathersfield Township.

His daughter, now 2, is partially blind and has brain damage, apparently resulting from shaken-baby syndrome, said Marcia Tiger, executive director, Trumbull County Children Services Board.

Hendrex received his sentence Monday from Judge Peter Kontos in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court.
