Latest News about Darrin Bell
The comic strip Candorville, written and illustrated by Darrin Bell, was suspended after his arrest and was officially cancelled with its final run ending in February 2025. The strip had been syndicated since 2003 and had moved to King Features Syndicate in 2022.
Darrin Bell was arrested in Sacramento County on allegations that he possessed child sexual abuse material, including images and videos linked to an online account controlled by him. Authorities said some of the material was computer-generated, making it the first arrest under California's updated law covering AI-generated child sexual abuse content. He was later released on bail while the case continued.
