The August issue of People profiled Pough, who worked as the night manger at a local restaurant while attending school full-time and raising his daughter, Diamond, who will be 2 on Nov. 27.

Diamond, who had full-custody of his daughter, had planned to work in construction after graduating next June.

That's a confusing pair of sentences. Is the daughter's name Diamond Diamond?

Actually, I think it is poor editing or lazy reporting or bad writing.

Terrell Pough was shot in the head on his way home from work Thursday night and later died at Temple University Hospital, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported....

Diamond, (should read Pough), who had full-custody of his daughter, had planned to work in construction after graduating next June.

The daughter's name would be Diamond Pough.
