CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. - A Greencastle, Pa., man convicted of shaking his infant son last year was sentenced Wednesday in Franklin County Court to four to 23 months in county prison, while the child's mother was placed on probation for three years.
Ryan Lynn Ingream, 23, of 249 S. Carlisle St., Apt. B, received the prison sentence from Judge John R. Walker for endangering the welfare of a child and another three years on probation for simple assault, Assistant District Attorney Bret Palmer said.
Jessica Armstrong, 22, of the same address, was placed on probation for one count of endangering the welfare of a child, Palmer said.
Greencastle police began investigating the couple on Feb. 12, 2004, at the request of Franklin County Children and Youth Services, according to the affidavit of probable cause. Police alleged Ingream shook the 3-month-old infant until the child was unconscious on Feb. 6.
