Carroll County spokeswoman Ashley Hulsey told Fox 5 in an interview that it appeared [Ressler] was masturbating while the classroom was full of kids. Hulsey explained that investigators were able to obtain video evidence as Ressler videoed it herself and disseminated it.
She said authorities are in the weeks-long process of conducting interviews with the 19 children who were present in the classroom during the alleged incident. Additional charges could be added based on those interviews, according to Hulsey.
Lincoln – The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Divisions of Behavioral Health and Public Health have received the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline’s 988 State Planning Grant through Vibrant Emotional Health, the nonprofit administrator of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.
In July 2022, 988 will become the national three-digit dialing code for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, replacing the current phone number of 1-800-273-TALK (8255). Anyone needing support should continue to call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) until then.
The grant will help DHHS and other partners participate in the development of a strategic plan to address projected infrastructure needs, volume growth, and access to the Lifeline’s new 988 number in Nebraska. Vibrant has awarded grants to 49 states and territories.

On Monday night Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told a story about the trauma we knew about, and the one we didn t.
During an emotional Instagram Live which has now been viewed 3.6 million times, Ocasio-Cortez said the fear she experienced in the Capitol riot last month was amplified by a previous trauma she had never spoken about publicly: sexual assault.
Voice cracking, eyes tearing, hands clasped, she revealed she hadn t told many people that in my life. But when we go through trauma, trauma compounds on each other.
After her harrowing account of how she hid from a violent mob on Jan. 6, Ocasio-Cortez received an outpouring of support from colleagues and other survivors who saw themselves in her story. But some critics derided her and claimed she was weaponizing trauma for political gain. Journalist Michael Tracey accused her of emotional manipulation.
