In May, jurors in Muskingum County convicted Daniel Seals on one third-degree felony count of gross
sexual imposition with a victim under the age of 13.

The Muskingum County Prosecutor’s Office said in 2020 the victim disclosed to his mother that he was abused by Seals as a child. They immediately filed a police report with the Muskingum County Sheriff’s Office, which launched a criminal investigation.
