    I must say, he look's like a crook. That said, don't judge a book by it's cover. The kids in the bus said that he said "Y'all know that you're going to die?" He should be put to sleep or life sentence in prison. Sometimes prison for life is more painful than immediate death. (Aaron Hernandez is the exception to the rule. He seem's to love it). People like AH have mental issues to be content in a situation like that. I'd rather die than be caged like an animal. The bus driver doesn't appreciate life, therefore lock his ass up.

    Putting 24-year-old driver for school bus is no-no in the first place. All the parents should sue Bus company. In our place, all the school buses are driven by retirees or the folks in their 40s.

    At 24 you dont have a healthy respect for the road yet, it's not until a few close calls when you start realizing getting somewhere 2 minutes faster is not worth the risk. Put a 24 year old in charge of a bus? Terrible idea, no matter what color or hair style. He should be mowing and edging my lawn, not in charge of the lives of 35 2nd graders.

    Difficult to look at the photos of the victims...Really heartbreaking for the children involved.
    Sixth child just passed.
    Precious gift of life taken way too early.

    Parents have complain about him speeding and the school district didn't do anything about it.

    Was it intentional? Heard something about kids saying he said "y'all ready to die"? True or false?

    What are you guys gonna do when it ends up being a malfunction on the bus. He passed drug and alcohol tests after the fact. I think if he was a swimmer at stanford then he would be given a pass!

    Yeah, let's see what the facts are. Even if it's speeding, that's bad, but it's not life in prison bad. But if it was intentional, then it's first degree murder.

    Jumping to conclusions because he's black is stupid. Also the thing about "are you all ready to die?" is alleged. They retrieved audio and video recordings, as well as speed and braking information. Unfortunately, those news stories don't get clicks so, if they even release something else on it in the future, it will be a tall task to actually find out what happened if you aren't in Chattanooga.

    I agree with thellama though, 24 is too young to be driving a school bus with a bunch of children on it. I did some stupid shit when I was driving between 17-24. Putting 35 screaming children behind me with a lack of experience could definitely exacerbate it.

    Sucks for everyone involved, the parents who lost children, the parents who may have children in critical condition, the children themselves, the school district, and the driver (assuming it was just an honest mistake and it wasn't compounded by recklessness aside from speeding)

    We get it, bud. You're looking for the attention your wife isn't willing to give you any longer, and sadly you've come to the right place.

    Yea let's hold off on lynching him until the real story comes out. Could be a mental health issue or it could have just been an accident. Promising that he wasn't drunk. Given that his name is Johnny Walker that would have made it worse

    Of the 3,000 plus vehicles the bus service has, there has been over 350 accidents in 2 years.

    The street he was on was not on his route, plus going too fast.

    Heard driver liked to hit the brakes on purpose so the kids smash their faces on the seat in front of them.

    Sounds like a twisted sick fuk.
