(ANSA) - Turin, March 16 - A judge sentenced a middle-school
teacher accused of sexually abusing his students to 11 years and
4 months in prison on Monday, along with a 50,000-euro fine and
a lifetime ban from teaching.
Investigators said Fabrizio Pellegrino lured students to
his home over a period of at least four years between 2010-2014,
where he paid them to perform sexual acts which he documented
and saved on his computer.
The teacher, who was arrested last August, was accused of
sexual abuse of 19 minors, child prostitution, and possession of
child pornography.
