A federal grand jury has handed up a new indictment of former Utah Transit Authority board member Terry Diehl that slashes the number of criminal charges the developer faces from 14 felonies to three.
Diehl has pleaded not guilty to the charges and a 10-day trial is set for Nov. 1. Each charge carries a penalty of either three or five years in prison and $100,000 in fines, plus the cost of prosecution.
’All of the 14 counts Diehl originally faced are related to a $1 million payday Diehl earned from the sale of land near 128000 South in Draper that is adjacent to UTA’s FrontRunner station.
