    A Blenheim man who murdered his mother has been sentenced to life imprisonment

    A Blenheim man who murdered his mother has been sentenced to life imprisonment


    Jennifer Sheehan was found dead at a Muller Road address in November.

    Her son, Paul Armon, was arrested soon afterwards - and pleaded guilty to murder in April.

    He's been sentenced today to life in prison, with a minimum 15 years before being eligible for parole.

    Police have acknowledged the sentence - and are thanking the public for assisting with last year's investigation.
