Child abuse? I would think that it would be up to the local DA. criminal Negligence? I would think so...When a bus driver, taxi driver, or someone else in public transportation has passengers, their safety becomes the driver's responsibility.
If the driver had at least used his radio to call for help, there would be no liability
Because he did nothing to prevent or stop the attack, that makes him an accessory to the crime.
That driver should go to trial, and if found guilty, serve time and have his CDL revoked.
If anything, in Civil court, he doesn't stand a chance.
as by my own governments wording on child abuse it confirms that it was child abuse. It was an elder, adult and a communitty leader who was negelant and not just negelant but negelant to a minor.
That negelance was in fact, failure to provide safety, failed to provide medical in respect to a minors health.
If this was an adult that it happen to then it would be negelance and criminal negelance at that. But this government official fails to provide action, from picking up a cb radio and calling police to getting medical attention to the minor after the attack.
Not only the bus driver, a government employee of STA but the organization itself was contact after the attack had occured and the organization did nothing also.
They were obligated by law to have medical and contact police - Now this organization had many branches and locations, the location that was contacted was the Port Adelaide Bus Depot. Why after they were contacted they failed to do anything, the only conclusion on the that would be criminal intent as they knew they would have severe legal reprocussions and possible public liabity claim against them.
