This morning District Court Judge Elizabeth Gonzalez sentenced Jerry Gomez to four to 10 years in the Nevada Department of Corrections. The sentencing came after Gomez entered a plea of guilty but mentally ill to one count of attempted murder with a deadly weapon. The charge stemmed from a March 2007 knife attack at a North Las Vegas grocery store, which left four people injured. The “guilty but mentally ill” plea will allow Gomez to be treated in prison for mental health problems.
