UPDATE 6 p.m.

A bond hearing was held on Friday morning for former Nebraska State Trooper Brandon Dolezal in the County Court of Douglas County. No bond was set and the judge ruled Dolezal can't contact anyone under the age of 18.

In Douglas County, Dolezal is charged with six counts of first-degree sexual assault on a child and one count of use of a communication device with ties to sexual assault. He is also facing charges in Sarpy and Scotts Bluff Counties.

In Douglas County, a preliminary hearing is set for Dec. 5.

Prosecutors say between Oct. 28 and Nov. 1, 25-year-old Dolezal would communicate with a 15-year-old alleged victim via Snapchat and arrange to have sexual relations with her. When he dropped her off, they were met by law enforcement.

For now, a jury trial is set for Sarpy County in January 2023.
