WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) -- It has been more than five years since 45-year-old Christopher Monk was killed in a motorcycle crash in south Wichita. On Friday, the driver who was found to be responsible was sentenced. Judge Kevin Smith gave Travis Bryson 31 months (2.5 years) in prison for involuntary manslaughter. Bryson also got a year in jail for DUI, but the judge said that time can be served at the same time as the prison sentence.
