Former Bellevue elementary security guard sentenced for sexual assault
OMAHA, Neb. June 28 2023 A former Omaha Public Schools security guard has been sentenced to prison for sexually assaulting a child.
Carlos Ornelas-Ramirez, 25, was sentenced Tuesday morning in Sarpy County District Court to 12 to 15 years in prison.
He’d pleaded “no contest” to one count of first-degree sexual assault of a minor. A third-degree count was dropped in exchange.
Ornelas-Ramirez was a security guard at Pawnee Elementary School in Bellevue, part of the Omaha Public School district.
He was arrested in December of 2021 after students reported that a security guard may have had sexual contact with a student on school property.
A police report said the incident happened after school hours in a portable classroom. Bond was set at $2.5 million after the arrest.
