What kind of job does he have in Alaska that pays $70K in 6 months?

No, he has one year to pay it back. If he does not, he goes to prison for 6 months. One year is a short time for someone like him to earn $70,000. It might be easier to serve the time. Probably wouldn't be with the violent criminals anyway since it's a white collar crime. But they will probably be watching to be sure he is at least trying to earn some money to pay back.

$70,000 take-home-after-tax-and-expenses is a good 1-year target for a greenhorn deckhand on an Alaskan fishing boat. Some oil industry jobs also pay as well at the entry level. Takes a strong work ethic and physical fitness. Key is working 24/7 and not having any free time in town to spend ones earnings.

"The front of his hair was combed in his trademark ducktail flip."

That, and a good shyster, must have gotten him the deal. Lucky dude.

Kimball was my daughters swim coach several years ago at lamvac. He was terrific with the kids and really engaged them. She was very saddened to read about whats happened and that he faced jail time. I really hope this was a stupid mistake and he makes full restitution and gets a second chance. He made a big difference for my kid a few years ago and I hope he can put this behind him and move on.

I once worked for Kimball at a non-profit in Saratoga. He was a fine person to have as a supervisor and always treated everyone with respect - his staff and community members. I cannot fathom what could have made him commit this crime but the resolution seems fair and the best for all parties. I will continue to pray for Kimball's emotional recovery. It looks like he is making strides in the right direction.

You should pray for his moral recovery as well. I don't think it was his emotions or lack thereof that caused this problem.
