Terrible Tragedy in my state

May 2nd, 2007 at 04:08 pm

Today the road in front of my work was closed due to a school bus driver being stabbed to death on the side of the road. If you look at the attached link, the brick building in the background is my work.

Luckily, this occurred before any children had been picked up on her route. But still it is such a sad thing. She was only 31 years old. I feel for her family and friends.

What really gets me is that people were more concerned with being late to work than with this tragedy. I don't know if its desensitization to violence or just plain selfishness, but I don't understand why my coworkers aren't more affected by what happened.

    Oh that is so awful! I am so sorry. I know of your town. I used to go to school in Eastern shore of Maryland. Again, very sorry for this tragedy.

    That is sad, I am so sorry. I remember several years ago in Seattle being on a bus near the UW and a woman was perched on a bridge set to jump. Police were negotiating with her and trying to get her help, but mad commuters kept yelling at her to jump (it made me sick...) She did jump, but thankfully survived. I cannot believe people get so wound up about their commute.

    It's so awful when you see something like that up close and personal. You know it happens, but you never think it will happen in your back yard. I hope they find the murderer.

    Just an update for anyone interested. The ex-boyfriend turned himself in for questioning and they found scratches on his hands and blood in his shoes. They have since pressed charges & he has no bail. That poor woman had 3 small children. Its so sad.
