Bus Driver Fired For Harassing Special-Needs Children

A bus driver and bus aide were suspended for harassing special needs children in the Morton School District 201 after a recording surfaced of the pair calling kids "f[uck]ing little monsters," threatening to tie the children on the roof and also threatening to break their fingers. Cathy and Richard Bedard had a feeling something wasn't right with the bus that took 2 of their 3 special needs kids to school everyday so they stuck a tape recorder in their 13 year-old daughter's backpack. Sneaky. Awesome. The driver and aide work for First Student Inc. and were immediately suspended, however, the school district recently learned that following a 6-week suspension the pair were reassigned to another route, causing outrage in the community. more ›
