A man convicted of the attempted murder of a Salt Lake County sheriff's deputy in 1988 has turned his life around in an unlikely way.

Karl Winsness spent more than 15 years in prison. Ten years after being released, he's helping shape the lives of youth, and his story is getting national attention.

He wanted to help other children like his own, so in 2010 he started the Willy the Plumber Scholarship for children with incarcerated parents.
