Sitter Who Allegedly Had Sex With Children Says Boys Are To Blame

A babysitter who allegedly had sex with an 8-year-old and a 9-year-old boy now claims in this article from The Salt Lake Tribune that the young boys forced her into it. A female judge has delayed the babysitter's sentencing so the woman can "undergo psychological counseling." Male defendants convicted of molesting and then blaming young girls are routinely sentenced to prison. But on Friday, 3rd District Judge Leslie Lewis delayed Nelson's fate for 90 days, and ordered her to undergo a psychosexual evaluation by prison psychologists. "I need to know what happened here," Lewis said. Click Read More for information on contacting Judge Lewis.
Judge Lewis is, incidentally, the chair of the Utah Gender Bias Implementation Committee. I have so far been unable to find an e-mail address for her. You may contact her through the U.S. mail or phone number below (as posted on the Utah Bar Web site).



Judge Leslie A. Lewis

3rd Judicial District of Utah

240 E. 400 South

Salt Lake City, UT 84111

801-535-5474



I encourage anyone making contact with Judge Lewis to be polite but firm in your assertion that this sitter should not be given a lighter sentence because of her gender.
