Oxford Junction man sentenced to 20 years on manslaughter charge

July 20, 2002 By admin

An Oxford Junction man will spend 20 years in prison for killing his dad in 1998. Twenty-two-year-old Nathan Watson was sentenced Friday in Jones County Court in Anamosa. Watson struck a plea bargain to avoid spending life in prison and pled guilty to involuntary manslaughter. Watson killed his 42-year-old father aboard a converted school bus the two men were living in. Watson was ordered to pay a variety of court fines and attorneys fees, as well as 48-hundred dollars to cover the costs of his dad’s funeral.
