Bell’s family and friends “are all just listening and waiting and hoping” to hear from the actor. They also shared they did not have any further information to share at the time of publication.
In the Bell Attempted Child Endangerment Case

The actor has been in legal trouble in recent years.
As The Blast previously reported, Bell had just completed his court-ordered probation for “two counts of attempted child endangerment and disseminating material harmful to a minor.”
The trial takes place in 2021.
The judge told Bell, “My understanding is that there is a plea agreement reached where the defendant will plead guilty to one count of attempted child endangerment, a felony in the fourth degree. [and] pleaded guilty to count two: distributing dangerous matter to an individual, a misdemeanor in the first degree.”
The judge continued, “But if you go to prison, when you’re released, you can be subject to a discretionary period of three years of post-release control. Post-release control may involve restrictions on your activities. If you violate those restrictions, you can go back to prison [for] up to a maximum of one half of your original sentence,” he continued.
Bell indicated he understood the terms.
He spoke during sentencing, telling the court, “Today I accept this plea because my conduct was wrong. I am sorry that the victim was hurt in any way- that was clearly not my intention. I take this matter very seriously, and again, I just want to apologize to him and anyone else who may have been affected by my actions,” he concluded.
Bell and his wife, Janet Von Schemling, share a son. Their baby boy is due in 2021.
