Kenny Pawski Revisited

A year after Jason's death, Kenny Pawski was found guilty of vehicular manslaughter. And while I thought it was a terrible accident, the conviction seemed right with the letter of the law. That does not mean that I liked the sentence, but know that life is not fair and it is what it is. Well Kenny appealed the conviction. And the courts move slow and the attorneys move slow and life moves fast. So fast forward to this month when the appeal only affirmed the conviction. Kenny Pawski is now serving his time. My very first thought was if he had not appealed he would be almost done now. My perspective has changed after my child spent his time in prison. Washington isn't a bad place to be if you have to go. So hopefully Kenny will find his time uneventful and he will get through it without hardening. I hope that when this is all done he will be able to move forward with his life and do something good.
