KINGMAN — A Fort Mohave man charged with pointing a weapon at his wife was sentenced to prison Thursday.
Paul Eugene Lass Jr., 52, was convicted in June of disorderly conduct with a weapon. He had been charged with aggravated assault and aggravated assault by domestic violence. He was arrested in May 2012 after pointing a gun at his wife and her friend at their home and telling her to leave the house. Lass had been armed with several weapons and wore body armor.
Superior Court Commissioner Derek Carlisle sentenced Lass to the minimum 18 months in prison. He had faced a maximum of 27 months. The judge also denied a motion for a new trial before sentencing.
Lass’ attorney, Ira Shiflett, argued that his client had no criminal record, that he served in the military and had support from the community.
