The former social studies teacher later resigned from his position. He was also chair of the Democratic Party in Jay County at the time of the incident and resigned his post shortly after. (In June, Jay County Democrats elected former two-term Portland mayor Randy Geesaman as their new chair.) According to a report filed in connection with the case, a 14-year-old girl told school resource officer Cody Jessee on April 10 that Bowers masturbated in her sixth period class at the junior-senior high the previous day. She told Jessee about the alleged incident and gave a written statement. According to the report, she texted her mother about the situation and sent her pictures and videos of the situation. She alleged Bowers stayed at his class the entire period and would not get out of his seat.

His hands was down there but when someone went up there he would wipe his hand off with paper towel,” she added. Muncie Star Press reports: Videos and photos taken during the class period were supplied to investigators. Students said Bowers was seated with one hand under his desk and suggested his behavior resulted in “white stains” appearing on his pants. They also noted the educator’s shirt was “untucked.” Later questioned by school administrators and police, Bowers “denied touching himself in class” and maintained the white stains had been caused by paint, not bodily fluid. Bowers — who at the time of the April incident was also chairman of the Jay County Democratic Party — was placed on administrative leave by school officials in April and resigned from his teaching job in May. The Indiana Department of Child Services was also involved in the investigation. Also on Tuesday, Bowers was charged with another Level 6 felony, dissemination of matter harmful to minors. That count alleges Bowers sent a photo of his genitalia to a person who had identified themselves online as a 15-year-old girl. The ex-teacher told police he should have “stopped the conversation when the person said they were 15” but “got caught up in the moment.”

The review, written by Guardian staff journalist Stuart Jeffries, criticized the film for “demonizing” Hamas as a group of rabid “killers” and “looters” — descriptions which Jeffries found offensive. The  documentary, by film-maker Dan Reed, offers an unvarnished glimpse at the horrors and barbarity of October 7th.  Algemeiner  (h/t Marvin W) Stuart Jeffries writing in The Guardian […]
