Former Leechburg police Chief Michael Diebold could soon be released from jail after a Westmoreland County judge agreed this week to grant his re-parole.
Diebold, 43, has been in jail since Dec. 9, 2019, after he was accused of violating terms of his parole from a 9-to-23-month jail sentence for sex offenses.
He pleaded guilty in December 2018 to charges that he attempted to solicit sex via the internet from an undercover agent posing as a 14-year-old girl.
