          Jesse J. Widick, of Lincoln, Nebraska was sentenced today by Judge Kevin McManaman on seven felony counts, including First Degree Sexual Assault of a Child, Child Abuse, and Witness Tampering. The sentences for each of the crimes amount to 108 to 166 years in prison.
Widick was found guilty after a trial by jury in September of this year. The crimes were committed over the course of nearly a decade, starting when one of the three victims was in second grade.
The Lincoln Police Department and the Nebraska Attorney General's Office were involved in the case's investigation, arrest, and prosecution.
