Wigler added an additional five years to Custis' life sentence for the child endangerment conviction. Prosecutors had sought a life sentence for the Newark resident based on a criminal past Wigler termed "rather staggering." A judge sentenced a career criminal to life in prison Wednesday for a brutal home invasion beating caught on a nanny cam after listening to the victim describe how the attack left her with physical and psychological scars. A jury convicted Custis on June 1 of aggravated assault, child endangerment, robbery, burglary, criminal restraint and theft. The 2013 attack lasted several minutes and started while the woman was sitting with her daughter watching television, with her infant son sleeping upstairs.
