Oneida County Homicides: How to help people shaken by violent crimes

ONEIDA COUNTY - Last weekend's killings shocked the northern Wisconsin community. Some of those who might have been most disturbed by the homicides are classmates of suspect Ashlee Martinson.

The 17-year-old was a junior at Rhinelander High School. The district's superintendent told us earlier this week she thought Martinson had been in class all of last week. She also said she didn't think the high school ever had any disciplinary issues with Martinson. School district leaders wouldn't agree to an interview but did say there are always counselors on staff available to speak with students.

There are also steps people can take to help those struggling to make sense of the tragedy.
