He was a beloved small-town police chief. Now he’s accused of trying to have sex with a child.

Just six months ago, after Michael Diebold lost his left hand and part of his arm in a fireworks accident, he became a local celebrity.

The police chief of the small Pennsylvania town of Leechburg drew sympathy from community members, some of whom raised funds to help with Diebold’s medical expenses. A church hosted a fundraising dinner, while others sold T-shirts that said: “We Stand By Ours. #teamdiebold1565.”

Just 18 days after the accident, Diebold got married and about 200 people attended the ceremony. He smiled at his bride, who was dressed in an off-the-shoulder white dress, as she placed a wedding band on his right ring finger, and attendees raised their phones to catch the moment.

Diebold made the news again recently. This time, he wasn’t smiling — and it’s unlikely that anyone in the town of 2,000 was.

      Seton Hall star Kadary Richmond enters transfer portal

      If her team doesn't win, her market value and name recognition will quickly decline. The team as a whole and coach make the value.

      Coaching is still more valuable than players. If Tylor Perry and the same team played for Benford here instead of Grant we would have NO NIT Championship.

      Morris signals it is over

      I don't see the eventual SEC/BIG10 vs the world thing working out long-term. Sure, USC-Michigan may be fun once in a while but there's no history to support the matchup. There's no regional rivalry. Those college kids aren't a 2 hour drive away to terrorize each other. Eventually, they're going to alienate half the college football fanbase because some of us may watch these games on Saturdays right now because it's football and it's a new match-up but they mean nothing to us long-term either so we won't keep watching them. I don't care to watch an SEC or BIG10 game if it means nothing to the greater landscape of college football. These are not the games football fans want, it's the games networks want. It will fail. An Oregon State fan will never be an Oregon fan. A Texas Tech fan will never be a Texas fan. A Florida State fan will never be a Florida fan. The markets are what they are. They won't change. Not anytime soon at least. Good luck, networks. This is why y'all keep cutting your staff and losing money (especially you, ESPN).

      He is in retirement mode and not about to take that on. However, I would like to hear the AD's opinion on the subject. Strangely quiet in the castle lately. Is the Morris-talk code for we need to decide what to do with our limited funds? Buildings benefit more players and fans. But salaries seem to be top priority for players these days...then they leave us anyway!

      Morris been here a year and already waving the white flag? I think we may need Dr. Smatresk to step in and provide some direction here.
