A Santa Rosa man has been sentenced to 33 years to life in prison for using scissors to attack the mother of his children. Thirty-eight-year-old Adrian Cervantes-Alvarez was given the sentence last Monday after a jury convicted him earlier this year of attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon and injuring a co-parent. Because he had previous convictions, Alvarez was sentenced under California’s Three Strikes Law. The attack happened in August of 2020 when Alvarez stabbed the victim in the neck at least seven times while the family sat in a car. He fled after a neighbor intervened and was arrested a day later.
