LENGTHY JAIL SENTENCE AVOIDED!

Kenny was facing up to three years in jail for a felony DUI. That's time away from his family, and just as important, time during which he would not be able to get the help he needed to put his destructive pattern of drinking behind him once and for all. Sam was able to negotiate a deal where he served house arrest, and take part in an alcohol abuse program. Not only did Kenny remain out of jail with his family, but he was able to use this experience as a catalyst to get the help he needs to be able to be the father and husband he knows he should be.
