The Lackawanna County Commissioners recognized Alec Yanisko and Joseph DelVecchio, center, for their heroic Good Samaritan discovery of Federal Judge Edwin Kosik’s vehicle along a nature trail in Dunmore.
Judge Kosik had been missing for several days and was the subject of a massive manhunt. The Dunmore students spotted his car near the Dunmore Reservoir ATV trail and reported it to the authorities who found the Judge alive and well.
