YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – The Yuma man convicted of murder has been sentenced after being found guilty of multiple counts.
40-year-old Nicholas Harder has been sentenced to 71 years in prison and will serve his terms consecutively.
He was found guilty of second-degree murder as well as being found guilty on all four counts of aggravated assault.
The victim, 57-year-old Anthony Jordinelli, was found dead on the shower floor of a home east of Somerton.
The verdict comes less than a week after closing arguments took place following a weeks long trial, where several people, including Harder, gave testimonies providing details about the crime.
