As stated by Detective Sergeant Ashley Clarke of Marlborough CIB:
Police acknowledge the sentence handed down to Paul Thomas Armon today in the Blenheim High Court.
Mr Armon was sentenced to life imprisonment with 15 years non-parole for the murder of his mother, Jennifer Sheehan, late last year.
We extend our sympathies to Mrs Sheehan's family.
They have asked for privacy at this difficult time.
I would like to thank our investigations team, as well as the wider public who helped us with information during the course of our investigation.
While no outcome can bring Mrs Sheehan back, we are pleased that the matter has now been concluded through the courts.
