Cameo Patch |
A female high-school substitute teacher in Utah will serve no time behind bars for performing oral sex on a 17-year-old male student, despite comments from the judge that a man would have likely gone to prison.
"If this was a 29-year-old male and a 17-year-old female, I would be inclined to order some incarceration," noted 3rd District Judge Mark Kouris during sentencing yesterday for Cameo Patch.
Patch was a fill-in instructor at Tooele High School, and was arrested after an informant disclosed her alleged relationship with the boy.
She was put on probation for 36 months, and ordered to obtain a psycho-sexual evaluation, as well as pay a $2,000 fine.
"The only thing I can say is that I understand the mistake that I made," Patch told the judge, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. "It opened my eyes to the life I want to live for myself and my [three] kids. I'll never wind up in this situation again."
She and her husband divorced last month.
Patch and the boy reportedly met in the classroom, but engaged in the alleged wrongdoing off campus after school. All indications are the sexual activity was consensual.
According to the police report, "... [Patch] and the juvenile met in a local restaurant, exchanged phone numbers, and arranged to meet to talk later in the evening. During the course of the meeting between the two, sexual activity between [Patch] and the juvenile occurred."
The informant stated Patch "performed oral sex" on the student, but did not engage in sexual intercourse.
Defense attorney Jon Williams said the boy had "created the environment and invited..."

Innocent!!!
Sheesh.
"..."If this was a 29-year-old male and a 17-year-old female, I would be inclined to order some incarceration,"..."
But since you're a 29 year old hottie, you get a pass.
It's always the man's fault...or "boy's" in this case.
She's hot and the guy was 17 for gawd sakes. When I was 17 I was FAR from a virgin. Plus did I mention she is hot?
What a moron that judge is. The penalty should be the same, regardless of the gender of the teacher.
As for this teacher, she'll have plenty of time with her kids. She's not going to be teaching again. How lucky they are to have such a moral model for a mom. Feh!
Innocent, 100%
Don't forget, we had clinton and the entire Drive By Media telling us for three years that oral sex wasn't really sex anyway.
Well, at least she will never teach again in a public school setting. What a whacked out nutjob.
If this was a 29-year-old male and a 17-year-old female, or if you weren't so darn cute, I would be inclined to order some incarceration...
No, its a different set of laws for ATTRACTIVE women.
If she looked like Hillary Clinton, she would be doing time.
"The informant stated Patch "performed oral sex" on the student, but did not engage in sexual intercourse."
When interviewed for the article, the boy declared, "I did not have sex with that woman." Patch, wearing a blue dress to the hearing confirmed that no sexual intercourse took place.
Not pedophilia with a 17 year old.
Is that a new term? And where can I find some of those in the female varity? ;-)
Heh, heh . . . a fill-in at Tool highschool . . .
There is a reason for double standards in society.
"When I was 17 I was FAR from a virgin. Plus did I mention she is hot?
"
I wasn't a virgin at 17, either, but my girlfriends were also high school students, not teachers.
Who cares if she's "hot." Teachers should not be having sex with students. It's that simple.
