A Lawrence county father charged with abusing his 2-month-old son has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
In July, Nicholas Ballou made an Alford plea to two counts of criminal abuse, meaning he does not admit guilty, but admits there is enough evidence to convict him.
The 25-year-old’s charges followed an incident in August 2011, when Ballou was home alone with his son Landyn. According to police, the child suffered multiple skull fractures and brain injuries.

Ballou’s ex-wife says the man told her the baby choked on his bottle. She says Landyn has cerebral palsy, permanent brain damage and is legally blind due to his injuries.
