According to court documents obtained by KETV, a sergeant with the Hardin County Sheriff’s Office investigated a complaint of a child exchanging inappropriate messages with an adult.<\/p>\n

Court documents detail messages accusing Sieg of paying a thirteen-year-old in exchange for sexual videos and photos. Bank statements show Sieg paid nearly $200 to the child between May 27, 2024, through June 3, 2024.<\/p>\n

Sieg is also accused of saying he would travel from Omaha to Texas to watch the child’s football games. Sieg allegedly said he would pay for a hotel room for the two of them to spend time together.<\/p>\n

Sieg was a former contractor, working with Omaha Sports Academy. OSA previously released a statement<\/a> saying they immediately terminated his contract when they learned of the investigation in Texas.<\/p>\n
