-FORCIBLE SEXUAL ABUSE – 2nd Degree Felony /Dismissed (w/o prej)
Heckel was sentenced 1-15 years in prison.
He served time in prison from 2009-2013
Someone familiar with Heckel’s case reported that he had previously confessed to two LDS bishops, in a neighboring county where he was later convicted in, that he had sexually abused someone else and the bishops did not report it to the police. In addition, they stated that they helped him get a job at the place where he assaulted the victim he was convicted for sexually abusing in 2009. They told us both bishops reasoning for not reporting to the police was they didn’t want to “ruin his life”.
Heckel is a registered sex offender living in West Valley, Utah as of May 2026.
