Justin Neff, 40 of Fillmore, was sentenced to nine years in state prison after pleading guilty of two felony charges, misdemeanor battery and making criminal threats.

Neff had been out of prison for only three days in November 2008 when he threatened his father and step-mother, throwing a remote control at her. He was accompanied by another parolee. Neff also threatened to kill his step-mother and shoved her against a wall.

Joseph O’Neill, Neff’s attorney, requested 32 months at sentencing, but with his long criminal history of domestic violence, Judge Steven Hintz imposed the nine year sentence.

Neff was also convicted of a drunken driving charge in a 1989 accident where a passenger was killed. He will receive anger management counseling as well as drug and alcohol counseling in prison.
