Two Bountiful Junior High School teachers are accused of sexually assaulting the same 13-year-old student, after their separate relationships with him spiraled from personal conversations to the exchange of sexual text messages and phone sex, authorities said.

On Friday, the Davis County Attorney's Office filed first-degree felony charges of rape and sodomy on a child against Linda R. Nef, 46, and Valynne Bowers, 39.

Nef, a Utah studies teacher and cheerleading adviser, and Bowers, who teaches math, each confessed to having sex with the student, said Bountiful Police Lt. Randy Pickett. Until recently, the two teachers did not know about each other's relationship with the same boy, Pickett said.

It's almost as if they revert back to being in middle school when in fact they are often times the teacher, put in charge of this child's care and well being. Most women I see at work - aides, teachers, administrators - view these children as an extension of their own family. I know I do personally. Once a mom, always a mom I like to say. But then again, look at Mary Kay Tourneau (sp?). She never had that filter that said - this is WRONG!

Sick......
