Michael Pavlik Jr. asks for early release from jail


YOUNGSTOWN — Michael Pavlik Jr. wants to get out of jail early.

On March 18, Judge R. Scott Krichbaum of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court sentenced Pavlik, 33, to 60 days in the county jail and three years’ probation after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge.

The 33-year-old victim told police Pavlik punched her in the eye, threw her into a coffee table and dragged her across the floor at his Cornell Avenue residence last November.

Judge Krichbaum has made no ruling on Pavlik’s motion, which was filed today by Pavlik’s lawyer, Benjamin Joltin, nor has any hearing on it been scheduled.
