Doing a life sentence on the outside - Paula Kensu

Relationships are hard, they take work, communication, mutual respect and love. Now just imagine you were trying to do all of that while your other half was serving a life sentence behind bars. Paula Kensu is the wife of Temujin Kensu, the man from Michigan serving a life sentence for a murder he says he didn't commit.

Paula and Temujin did not meet at a bar, on tinder or through friends, Paula and Temujin met while Temujin was incarcerated. After reading about Temujin's story Paula felt compelled to reach out and see if she could help. They would start chatting via the prisons email system and become close friends and that friendship would blossom into love and marriage.

Often times when someone is incarcerated they leave behind family members, mothers, fathers, kids and partners. These family members are not physically behind bars but mentally they are doing the time with them. A daily struggle of emotions and the stress of not knowing if or when they might have their loved one home. Today I sit down to talk with Paula about all of these struggles an emotions as well as the added stress of trying to get justice for her husband.
