The court heard 36 year old Jeremy Abram David already had a string of thefts and assaults on his record when he got into a fight with his cellmate, Thomas Jack. He pleaded guilty to kicking Jack in the head three times then attempting to hide from the guards why the man was unresponsive.
Jack suffered a traumatic brain injury and will not be able to work or drive again.
David was also charged with possession and breaking a court order which were factored into his sentence.
