Bus Driver Sentenced To Probation Only After Duct Taping Disabled Child’s Mouth
Now this is just ridiculous.
A former upstate New York school bus driver has been sentenced to three years of probation for placing duct tape over the mouth of a 7-year-old disabled girl.
Marjorie Jones also will have to perform 100 hours of community service under a sentence handed down Monday by a town justice in Queensbury, on the southern edge of the Adirondacks. The victim is unable to speak and has the cognitive abilities of a toddler.
Jones apologized for her actions but said it was a “playful thing” and that she meant no harm. The Post-Star of Glens Falls reports that Jones was served with a lawsuit from the parents of the girl as she left court.
