Despite her previously crushed lungs, Lisa Wilson breathed easier yesterday as the man accused of running her over while high on heroin was sentenced to 25 years in prison.
But his sentencing had less to do with Wilson’s injuries and more to do with the events surrounding the June 2005 day when she was torn from the back of a motorcycle and dragged underneath his truck.
Byron Say, 38, of Hanalei, was instead sentenced by Circuit Judge Kathleen Watanabe to 20 years for first-degree promotion of a dangerous drug and an additional five years for possessing drug paraphernalia.
Watanabe ordered him to serve the sentences consecutively, the first of which will be served without the possibility of parole.
