LOWER MORELAND, Pa. - January 24, 2014 (WPVI) -- A high school teacher in Montgomery County has been charged with having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student. Erica Ann Ginnetti, 33, an advanced math teacher at Lower Moreland High School, is charged with 13 counts including Institutional Sexual Assault, Corruption of Minors, and Disseminating Obscene Materials to a Minor.
Students say the rumors have been circulating for a while that Ginnetti, a married mother, had an intimate relationship with a 17-year-old male student. "The fact that she had kids and she was a teacher and he was student, that's what's shocking," said Patrick Giordano, student.
Police began their investigation ten days ago, after receiving a tip about other students seeing incriminating evidence on the victim's cell phone. Police say the evidence, including photos, video and text messages, led them to Ginnetti, who admitted to having a relationship with the student starting last Spring.
Investigators say Ginnetti first approached the male student at the school's senior prom last May, asking him if he would come work out at her gym. They say the student responded with a text message a few days later and the two began communicating on a daily basis.
Prosecutors say over the next several months, Ginnetti sent the student sexual text messages and sexually explicit photos and videos of herself, and on one occasion had sex with him. Investigators said in July 2013 the pair met at coffee shop in Northeast Philadelphia, Ginnetti drove the student to an industrial park near the Lower Moreland-Philadelphia border, had sex with him, then drove him back to the coffee shop and asked him not to tell anyone.

I think the jury needs to review the video evidence. On the basis of the photo, she may very well be guilty.
Good point. . .wonder why?
Don’t want to enrage people against the Amish, perhaps?
Was the mall murderer a minority?
I was thinking the same. She has the facial features of a man.
The really sad thing is, five years ago this was the male shop teacher... LMAO (just kidding)
Ouch. She looks like she’s switched teams at one point.
The propagandist “news” tends to do this.
Just flushed her entire life down the drain for a few moments of sexual satisfaction.
Stupid...but I guess this is what the past 30 or so years of hyper-sexualization in our society has wrought.
Ginnetti is a Pennsylvania mob family name from the Northeast.
A liberal wet dream; half latino/half-black
“That’s a man!”
I was thinking the same thing. Looks like a Tranny.
He’s not to smart if he’d kept his mouth shut he’d probably still be get’n it.
After identifying him by name, that is the only rational explanation.
"Equal protection," and all that... < /sarc >
Just wait a year or 2-it’s just as hard.
Yup, strictly by the numbers and she new all the angles.
That prosecutor should be in prison with that cop!!
..stripes look good on her
