A Northfield man was sentenced Monday for twice kidnapping and beating a developmentally disabled man from Lakeville in October.

A judge sentenced John Maxwell Maniglia, 20, to eight years for the attack on Justin Hamilton, 24. Maniglia must serve more than five years in prison and more than two years on supervised release. He must also register as a predatory offender.

The sentence was double the usual punishment due to what the judge called the unusual cruelty of the acts.
