A Glassboro man was sentenced Friday to three years in state prison for underfeeding his son out of neglect.

Peter Morselander, 27, had pleaded guilty to charges of second-degree child endangerment after state investigators found that his then-15-month-old son weighed only 15 pounds, far below normal. He was sentenced by Superior Court Judge M. Christine Allen-Jackson in Woodbury.

Morselander's wife, Leah Bozarth, 23, was sentenced to four years in prison last year. - James Osborne
