LAWRENCE COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — A Lawrence County jury convicted a man for “brutally beating” his 64-year-old mother, District Attorney Brent Cooper announced Thursday.

Nicholas Gobble was convicted of attempted second-degree murder for the July 9, 2023, assault.

According to Cooper’s office, Gobble “flew into a rage” and attacked his mother when she mentioned he would need to help pay for utilities in the home they shared. The assault resulted in eight broken ribs, a brain bleed and multiple cuts, lacerations and bruises to the 64-year-old.

The case was investigated by Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Josh Boliou. The case was presented in court by Assistant District Attorneys Jessie Parrish and Brittany Langford.

Gobble is set to be sentenced Sept. 19 before Circuit Judge Julie Heffington, according to Cooper’s office.
