Judge Kimbler has sentenced James E. Polanski, 27, and Logan P. Clark, 22, both of whom are inmates in the Lorain Correctional Institution to one year in prison for Attempted Aggravated Assault, a fifth degree felony. The victim in the assault was an inmate of the Medina County Jail who was in jail due to being charged with a sex offense. The State of Ohio alleged that both Polanski and Clark were aided in the attempted assault by a Medina County Corrections Officer. The Corrections Officer was also indicted for this offense, and his case is still pending.
Both Polanski and Clark entered guilty pleas to the assault charge. Although both were charged with more serious offenses, the State agreed to amend the charges in exchange for the men telling the County Prosecutor’s Office what they knew about the case. Both men also agreed to testify if the charge against the Corrections Officer goes to trial.
Polanski entered his change of plea on August 16, 2010 and Clark entered his change of plea on October 12, 2010. Judge Kimbler sentenced Polanski on October 7, 2010 and sentenced Clark on October 12, 2010.

Three Defendants Change Plea in Judge Kimbler's Courtroom on Monday, August 16
Three defendants who were originally scheduled for jury trials entered a change of plea in Judge Kimbler's courtroom on Monday, August 16. The defendants were James M. Brienzo, James E. Polanski, and John T. Kaiser. Judge Kimbler ordered pre-sentence investigations in all three cases and will impose sentence in all three cases on September 30, 2010.
Mr. Brienzo, whose address is listed as 146 First Street, Northwest, was charged with one count of Theft over $500.00, a fifth degree felony. The indictment alleges that the Theft took place from Wal-Mart and involved computers. He entered a plea of "no contest" and found guilty on that plea.
Mr. Polanski, whose address is listed as the Lorain Correctional Institution in Grafton, Ohio, was originally charged with one count of Felonious Assault and one count of Kidnapping. The State moved to amend the first count of a charge of Attempted Aggravated Assault and moved to dismiss the second count. Mr. Polanski then entered a guilty plea to the charge of Attempted Aggravated Assault.
Mr. Kaiser, whose address is listed as 3651 Nichols Road in Medina, Ohio, entered a plea of guilty to one count of Driving While Under the Influence of Alcohol. Because he had four convictions for the same offense within 20 years of committing the present offense, the DWI charge was a fourth degree felony.
