The mother of two survivors of the horrific bus crash in Chattanooga says the bus driver’s words right before the crash point to it being intentional on his part.
From the New York Post:
The driver behind the wheel of a Tennessee school bus that crashed and killed five children asked the kids if they were “ready to die” as he sped along a Chattanooga road, according to a report.
A mom who had three students aboard the bus — one of whom died — told CBS News that Johnthony Walker asked the chilling question seconds before the yellow bus slammed into a telephone pole and a tree.
Walker, 24, was well above the 30-mph speed limit while driving 35 students home from the Woodmore Elementary School on Monday — crashing on a narrow road about a mile from the school, Police Chief Fred Fletcher said.
That is just horrific. Apparently the moron had also been in a car accident 2 months prior to this crash – how is it possible that he was still entrusted with the care of children?!

I bet there’s gonna be a lot of blame to go around when more facts come out.
