High school teachers arrested for sexual misconduct, styled as being in "hot water"
Story here. The title says they're in "hot water"? Imagine if male teachers had done the same to female students what the report title would be!
'It began a few months ago, when in November, Melody Lippert, a teacher with the South Hills High School, allegedly met with a group of male students, gave them alcohol, and then “engaged in a sexual relationship with one of them” according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.
Two weeks ago, Lippert supposedly set up another overnight beach trip, this time, inviting Michelle Ghirelli who used to teach at South Hills High School before being transferred to work in the district’s offices. It’s suspected that the two women engaged in an inappropriate sexual relationship during that trip. The school had no idea the pair had set up a beach trip.
The 38-year-old Lippert was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Ghirelli (who is 30) faces charges of oral copulation and unlawful sex with a minor.
The Orange County Sheriff’s department has refused to release any more details on the nature of the relationship between the teachers and students, or what may or may not have happened on that overnight beach trip.
For now, both women have been put on Administrative leave and removed from the classroom as of Sunday morning.'
