28 year old Melissa Andreini, a teacher from Utah, is alleged to have had a sexual relationship with a boy of 15, and paid him to up $1,500 for his services. A court in Carbon County heard this week how the mother of the alleged victim confronted the Junior High School teacher at her home after she suspected something was going on. When confronted Andreini confessed to the relationship and also told the mother that she had paid the boy somewhere between $1,400 and $1,500.

The 15 year old was interviewed and told investigators that he had performed sex with Miss Andreini on three occasions at her home, and she had given him cash afterwards. Andreini has been charged with three counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor, each count carries a maximum jail term of five years. Now as we always do for FSP stories let's reverse the gender roles for a second. What if a male teacher was having sex with a 15-year-old female student and paid her $1500. Isn't that basically calling the 15-year-old girl a whore? You bet your ass there would be an angry mob in the making.

Police say Melissa Andreini had sex with the teenager several times at her home in Helper starting last school year. Officers booked Andreini into jail. But released her after she posted $10,000 bail. Her first appearance in court is scheduled for September. Copyright 2009 Newport Television LLC All rights reserved.

Valencia Spain

VALENCIA, Spain — Brazilian veteran Rubens Barrichello claimed an emotional 10th Formula One victory on Sunday when he drove his Brawn GP car through a perfectly-judged race in searing heat to win the European Grand Prix. It was his first win this season and his first triumph in five years since the 2004 Chinese Grand Prix at Shanghai for Ferrari as well as a popular victory greeted with delight and tears in the paddock. Barrichello's win lifted him from fourth to second in the drivers' championship standings.

Briton Jenson Button, his Brawn team-mate, who was seventh, now leads with 72 points ahead of the Brazilian on 54 with Australian Mark Webber third on 51.5. The 37-year-old driver from Sao Paulo came in ahead of defending drivers champion Lewis Hamilton in a McLaren and Finn Kimi Raikkonen for Ferrari at the Mediterranean street circuit in eastern Spain. Hamilton had started from pole but his hopes of victory were dashed by a muddled second pit-stop when the McLaren team had not prepared his tyres.

Hamilton's McLaren team-mate Heikki Kovalainen, took fourth ahead of German Nico Rosberg of Williams and local hero Fernando Alonso of Renault, who was sixth. Webber, second in the championship before the race, was ninth after his Red Bull team-mate German Sebastian Vettel was forced to retire with an engine failure. Button, starting fifth, suffered a dreadful opening lap and, after being swamped in a rush through the first corner, emerged down in eighth place. At the front McLaren's duo drove like a dream machine, leading the field comfortably with Hamilton reeling off fastest laps and little else changing as the procession stretched out around the harbour streets.
