RENKEN TO ASK FOR JAIL TIME FOR KULOW
Sentencing is set for Thursday morning in the case of a former Washington County jailer convicted of assaulting a prisoner.
District Judge Carson Campbell will sentence Christopher Kulow at 10:00 a.m. in 21st District Court.
Kulow was convicted back in August of beating a prisoner who was in restraints at the time. The incident was caught on a surveillance camera inside the Washington County Jail.
Kulow could receive up to a year in jail or two years probation.
Washington County District Attorney Julie Renken has indicated she will request jail time…but will not recommend a specific punishment for the Class A Misdemeanor.
Renken says she felt Kulow took no responsibility and showed no remorse for his actions, and that’s why she’s requesting he be sentenced to time in jail.
