The Tennessee school bus driver charged in a wreck that killed five elementary school kids allegedly asked the students if they were "ready to die" as he raced down a narrow Chattanooga road, a parent said.
Johnthony Walker was speeding "well above" the posted speed limit and lost control of the bus before it flipped over and wrapped around a tree, police wrote in an arrest affidavit.

Walker, 24, is charged with five counts of vehicular homicide for the deaths of five Woodmore Elementary School students: three fourth graders, a first grader and a kindergartner. None of the children - four girls and a boy - have been identified.
Another dozen students remained hospitalized Tuesday morning, six of whom are in critical condition.

I saw that picture and thought they’d arrested Snoop.
“Johnthony”
Guilty right there.
Horseshit to that mom. I wouldn’t let him walk the dog. He has now killed 5 children.
CDL holders are tested for drugs immediately following an accident, not matter whose fault it is. They are also tested randomly for drugs and alcohol. If they are out drinking off duty and are stopped, their blood alcohol limit is below the state standard (at least it is here in AZ).
I drove a school bus for about 3 years. It’s hard work and you have to deal with a lot of crap. I was letting some kids off at a stop and they had to cross the road in front of the bus. There was some drama going on with some of the kids on the bus and I was trying to calm things while watching to make sure everyone got across the street. I was just about to roll forward when I spotted a boy crouched down hiding behind the left front tire.
Thank God I saw him and thank God for out door speakers on the bus. I let the kid have it. EVERYONE in the neighborhood heard it, I’m sure. He took off and made it safely across the street. I had nightmares about what could have happened for several weeks after that.
See, see you meanie old right-wing FReepers! He was just trying to be the first black NASCAR racer! How dare you!
I called it on the breaking thread BTW. Knew it was sabotage.
Do you want to prohibit alcohol, the 3rd leading cause of highway fatalities, also?
It is Chattanooga and he will have his day in court.
Muslim?...................
What’s his muslim name?
If Obama had a son....
Beat me by 21 seconds.
There already has been one..................
All of Obama’s sons are murdering racist pigs.
To hell with them!
you’d think it would be just easier to ban having kids altogether so you won’t have anything to worry about...better not say too loud, it might give them ideas...
Definitely looks high. They should arrest the owner of the bus company as being complicit.
It would not surprise me at all if he is a convert and had Sudden Jihad Syndrome.....................
In 3rd grade our bus driver “Tiny” was quite entertaining. (1961)
He’d holler out favorite lines from Wagon Train, as we departed each stop;
“Wagons Ho!”
“Head ‘em up, Move ‘em out!”
Then he’d pull out a bottle, wrapped in a paper bag, and take a swig.....
About a week after relating this cute little detail to the folks, we noticed we had a different driver.
Premeditated murder— death penalty.

Should have known...
Krappernick’s son?
