The video, in which Olson filmed himself masturbating, was visible for 10 to 15 minutes before he deleted it. In that short time, the video was screen-recorded and spread throughout the community, leading to public outrage and calls for his resignation from the school board.

In the lawsuit, Olson names six individuals he says circulated the video without his consent. He accuses one defendant of creating a meme from the video and another of posting a screenshot on a public Facebook page.

The lawsuit claims Olson believed the video was shared privately, and those who viewed it should have recognized it as an accidental post not meant for public consumption or distribution.

“The video is of such a nature that it was created in circumstances where the subject had a reasonable expectation of privacy,” the lawsuit states.
