The parents of a severely injured Iraq war veteran pleaded guilty to stealing from their son.

Michael and Lori Nault were then sentenced for the felony charge after admitting to gambling away at least $53,000 that belonged to Shane Nault.

On Tuesday, Eau Claire County Judge Lisa Stark sentenced Michael Nault to seven months in jail, two of which can be converted to community service. Lori Nault, who is Shane's primary caregiver, will do 400 hours community service in lieu of five months in jail. Both were also sentenced to three years of probation.

“I would like to take this time to apologize for everything we did wrong,” Michael Nault said in court, choking up at times. “We love our son, Your Honor, and we're sorry for what we've done and we ask that someday the community be able to forgive us.”

Michael Nault apologized to Shane, his fellow veterans and the community.
