    KAIT 8: Former Osceola teacher charged with sexual assault (Jan 17 2014)

    Superintendent Cox said the staff began to hear rumors and allegations from students about a situation with Winberry and a student. Superintendent Cox said the school started investigating and found evidence to back up the students' allegations. "We had one student who had some text messages on his phone from a teacher," Cox said. After discovering text messages, Superintendent Cox said the school immediately contacted the Arkansas Child Abuse Hotline and the Osceola Police Department. "We have a resource officer from the Osceola Police Department. We brought him in and got him involved. And I think the people from the hotline contacted the state police, and they did an investigation," Cox said. According to police, that investigation revealed Nicole Winberry may have sexually assaulted two more students.
