District Attorney Gregory D. Totten announced today that Cheree Noel Sanker (DOB 03/07/77), of Fillmore, was sentenced on May 22, 2012, by the Honorable Colleen Toy White to nine years in state prison. Sanker pled guilty on March 15, 2012, to one count of corporal injury to a co-habitant with a deadly weapon, a felony.

The crime took place on October 29, 2011, after Sanker and the victim, who were domestic partners, had ended their relationship. The victim went to their former residence to retrieve some personal belongings. Sanker became enraged with the victim and hit her multiple times with a piece of wood, causing severe contusions. This case was investigated by the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department in connection with the Ventura County District Attorney’s Bureau of Investigation.

Sanker’s prison sentence was enhanced under California’s “Three Strikes Law” because of a prior conviction for assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer in Ventura County. The maximum possible sentence Sanker faced was 15 years in state prison.
