Family pushes to widen penalties after teen drownings
Trevor Pacek, 19, died when a small boat capsized on a Medina Township pond while three youths were intoxicated. His parents allege police relied on a survivor's account and pressed for Ohio House Bill 674 to elevate furnishing alcohol to a minor resulting in death from a first degree misdemeanor to a fourth degree felony. The Paceks launched a Trevor Pacek memorial scholarship and seek stricter enforcement as they campaign with Rep. Sharon Ray and Governor DeWine backing the effort.
