Exclusive: Bernie Kosar tells 3News Investigates why he is opening his home to an imprisoned mobster

Bernie Kosar tells 3News Investigates why he is opening his home to an imprisoned mobster who is waiting for an early release.

“We're not condoning anything that happened in his past and absolutely wish it did not happen," Kosar says. "But I genuinely believe he feels remorseful."

In a 3News Exclusive, 3News Investigator Rachel Polansky met with Kosar, who took us on a tour of his Mantua farm where the reformed gangster could live after 40 years behind bars.

"So many people know me as a football player and I absolutely love football. But in pursuit of that dream, I got so many injuries, 70-something broken bones, over 100 concussions, 15 seizures. In the pursuit of physically trying to overcome what happened to me during football, I found that holistic medicine helped me physically heal. With that physical healing, there also comes spiritual healing," said Kosar. "When I found out about Kevin’s situation and some of the great work he’s doing within the prison system, helping people and making a positive difference in people’s lives after rehabilitating himself, it's almost like what I’m trying to do for myself. To be able to help people and make a difference, I’ve been given a second chance. And I like what Kevin’s been doing, giving people a second chance from him ministry side of it."
