Georgetown Man Sentenced

{Georgetown, Kentucky}...Carl Lewis, 60, of Georgetown, was sentenced Monday to 20 years in prison for first-degree manslaughter and five years for wanton endangerment, the sentences to run consecutively. Glen Bussell, 22, a wrestler known as "Ice Pick" with the Southern Wrestling Association and assistant manager of the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Georgetown, was killed in an April 3, 2010, crash when a vehicle driven by Lewis, who was under the influence, crossed the center line on U.S. 460 and hit three other vehicles. Lewis was indicted on a charge of murder and four counts of wanton endangerment, but the murder charge was amended to manslaughter, and the four counts of wanton endangerment were consolidated into one.
