Female Teacher Accused of Sex With Students She Also Gave Alcohol to Boys, Ages 14-16, Police Say apbnews.com Aug. 22, 2000 By Richard Zitrin MONTROSE, N.Y. (APBnews.com) - A 28-year-old teacher faces up to four years in prison for allegedly carrying on sexual relationships with three teenage students last school year, prosecutors said. Marci Stein, who taught special education at Hendrick Hudson High School in this Westchester County community until earlier this year, pleaded not guilty at her arraignment in County Court Monday. Stein is charged with multiple counts of third-degree sodomy, third-degree rape, third-degree sexual abuse, first-degree unlawfully dealing with a child and endangering the welfare of a child. She is free on her own recognizance, according to the Westchester County District Attorney's Office. Allegedly brought boys home Stein, who taught at Hendrick Hudson High School for two years, allegedly sexually abused three boys between the ages of 14 and 16 from April 1999 until this past January. She also is accused of giving alcohol to the boys, whom she met at school, and of carrying on the relationship in her home in Buchanan, authorities said. Her attorney, George Fufidio, could not be reached for comment. Contesting her firing School district officials said that after learning of the teacher's alleged sexual misconduct, they conducted an investigation of the charges, which led to removing her from her job. Stein is suing the district for allegedly wrongfully terminating her, school officials said. "The district is confident that Ms. Stein's attempts to blame the district and her students for her current dilemma will not withstand the scrutiny of the litigation process and the grand jury's indictment is another step in that process," district officials said in a prepared statement.

Woman Scalded to Death in Yellowstone Hot Spring Two Companions in Critical Condition apbnews.com Aug. 23, 2000 YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. (AP) -- A park concession employee died Tuesday after falling into a 178-degree hot spring and two others were in critical condition. Sara Hulphers, of Oroville, Wash., died about 15 hours after the accident late Monday. The 20-year-old woman died from complications from very severe burns, said Chris Nelson, spokesman for University of Utah's Intermountain Burn Center in Salt Lake City. The accident occurred in the Lower Geyser Basin seven miles north of Old Faithful, roughly in the middle of the park. An area along the Firehole River was cordoned off with yellow police tape Tuesday night. Returning from swim According to park spokeswoman Cheryl Matthews, the three were returning from a swim in the Firehole River when friends heard their cries between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. Monday. They fell into Cavern Spring, a 178-degree pool about 10 feet deep, she said. The three were trying to navigate the geyser basin in the dark hours after sunset and before the moon rose, said park spokeswoman Marsha Karle. Rangers spoke with park concession employees and determined alcohol likely was not a factor in the accident, she said. Yellowstone's hot springs are often surrounded by thin, fragile crusts and numerous warning signs are posted. Visitors to the Lower Geyser Basin are urged to stay on a half-mile boardwalk over the treacherous terrain. "I would not venture off this boardwalk. You couldn't pay me enough to set foot off this," said Carla Wilson, of Denver, who was visiting Yellowstone with her mother. Burns over entire body Hulphers had third-degree burns over her entire body. Tyler Montague, 18, had second- and third-degree burns over 97 percent of his body, and Lance Buchi, 18, had third-degree burns over 90 percent of his body, park officials said. Matthews said some of the friends stayed with Hulphers while others helped Montague and Buchi walk to their cars about a quarter of a mile away. "It's pretty remarkable that they walked these two young men out, which took some time because they were pretty hurt," she said. All three worked in the Old Faithful area; Hulphers in the Old Faithful Inn employee dining room, Buchi in housekeeping at the inn and Tyler at the Old Faithful Lodge kitchen.
