Softball Umpire Accused of Fondling Girl, 14

(Plantation, Florida) A 25-year-old softball umpire, Brigid Lesovsky, was arrested yesterday for allegedly engaging in a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old girl.

Lesovsky faces charges of lewd or lascivious molestation and lewd or lascivious battery.

The teen plays softball, and Lesovsky met her through her umpire position, officials said. The relationship began as a friendship, but turned sexual about a month ago, when the girl said Lesovsky fondled her, officials said.

Lesovsky's alleged acts came to light after the teen got in trouble in school, and a teacher notified her parents.

When the teen's parents questioned her, she described the lewd acts, the Sheriff's Office said. The parents contacted authorities.

Lesovsky was booked into custody at the Broward County Jail with bail set at $40,000.
