A former Adams County sheriff’s division chief on Friday became the third high-ranking officer to plead guilty to falsifying training records while employed by the agency, prosecutors say. Michael Bethel — along with former Sheriff Rick Reigenborn and former Undersheriff Thomas McLallen — signed training rosters for classes they did not attend and submitted training certificates to state regulators to claim they had fulfilled their annual training requirements in 2021, which McLallen and Reigenborn had not. Bethel pleaded guilty to felony forgery and the misdemeanors of second-degree forgery and first-degree official misconduct.
