LUDINGTON — A 24-year-old Ludington man was sentenced to prison Monday, Sept. 12, in 51st Circuit Court for convictions of attempted assault by strangulation, absconding bond and brass knuckles possession.

Jonathan Sherro Soloman-Jones, of 602 E. Melendy St., received concurrent sentences in three criminal files. For the attempted assault by strangulation, Judge Susan K. Sniegowski sentenced Soloman-Jones to two years to five years in prison with 208 days jail credit. For absconding bond, he was ordered to two to four years in prison with 164 days jail credit. In the possession of brass knuckles file, he was sentenced to serve nine months up front of a one-year discretionary jail term with 208 days jail credit.

The defense and the prosecution worked out a negotiated concurrent sentence for all three files, said Mason County Prosecutor Paul Spaniola. Solomon-Jones had already pleaded guilty in the brass knuckle case and was awaiting sentencing when he committed the other crimes, Spaniola said.

Solomon-Jones was ordered to have no contact with the victim.
