YOUNGSTOWN — Cornelius Harris, 29, will spend an additional 32 years in prison for assaulting two prison guards at the Ohio State Penitentiary.
A jury, after a weeklong trial, convicted Harris late Friday of two counts of felonious assault and two counts of having a deadly weapon inside a detention facility. He was sentenced Monday by Judge Maureen Sweeney of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court.
Harris, who is serving a 54-year sentence on a litany of other charges, could have been sentenced to an additional 36 years. Judge Sweeney handed down nine-year sentences on each of the felonious assaults and seven-year sentences on each of the possession of a deadly weapon charges.
