There was no joy in Judge Alan Mayberry's courtroom Friday morning as the sentence for Matthew Nissen's conviction in regard to his role in the death of his friend last June.
Nissen was placed on two years of community control sanctions for his conviction of aggravated vehicular homicide.
Mitchell Aring, 30, was a passenger in Nissen's vehicle on June 17 on Bloomdale Road near Oil Center Road, when Nissen lost control causing the accident which claimed Aring's life.
Nissen, 24, of Bowling Green, and formerly of Pemberville, pleaded guilty to the charge as well as a misdemeanor charge of operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
At Friday's sentencing, the family of Aring were on hand and letters were read for the court from Aring's parents and sister.
