We are continuing our coverage in a Clearfield County homicide case as a man who plead guilty to strangling his own mother to death will now spend decades behind bars.
Officials confirming today that David Lombardo is being sentenced to serve 20 to 40 years in state prison for killing his mother for her insurance policy.
Lombardo was arrested in March of 2024 after his 69 year old mother was found dead inside her home.
Investigators say his wife then testified in court that he reportedly confessed to strangling his mother in order to receive her $5 thousand dollar life insurance policy.
Officials say Lombardo later pleaded guilty to 3rd degree murder and was then sentenced earlier this week.
