Any supposed apology that includes "or whatever" is completely insincere. She's banned from any job around children for the probation period, but maybe there needs to be a registry for serious child abuse that resembles the sex offender registry.
We have 2 separate systems here I assume similar in other states. The department of Human Services also does either a child protection or vulnerable adult investigation separately from the criminal system. My son with special needs was also abused as was my father in assisted living. Both with witnesses and video. Without that, many cases go nowhere we have been told. I'm also a county case manager for adults with special needs, and have seen many cases not protect our kids and vulnerable adults. Anyway, the two women who abused my dad were charged criminally and only one did the jury find guilty (the poor one who couldn't afford a private attorney to get her off) but BOTH were found responsible by DHS and can't pass a background check for any job requiring a DHS background check. That's required for any human service job here. They are excluded from providing direct services. Stinks especially for the one who was just taking her nursing boards who got off her criminal charge. But she chose to toss an old man with dementia around his room, pit her arm around his neck in a choke hold to remove clothes, and kneeled on his chest because he couldn't understand her or move fast enough. The terror in his voice and words was the most heartbreaking thing ever. 💔 Thank heaven she can't pass the background check here....but it's not national.
She'll never be able to work with children again. Her history will follow her. I wouldn't trust her to be around any children, not even her granddaughter. Nope.
Judge Simpson is an epitome of what an ideal judge should be. He’s fair, compassionate,emphatic,aware,observant, well spoken, intelligent and warmhearted. Kudos to you Judge.
He's an absolute blessing. As a father of a disabled child, I was close to tears a couple of time swatching this. The complete antipathy so many people have, how subhuman they find those with disabilities, is exactly what this so called 'teacher' has writ large on every part of her being, and to see the Judge bring home some measured, empathetic, understanding, firm justice was good to see.
Reminder: Judge Simpson obstructed a DUI arrest of one of his clerks. He drove to the scene and tried to interfere with the officers. He does NOT believe in equal justice under the law; it's totally selective and biased.
I came on to say this very thing. When she shrugged her shoulders I wanted to slap the indifference off of her smug face. Evil walks among us and she’s it. 🤬
Judge Simpson is compassionate when a person shows true remorse, but woe be to creatures like this female who do wicked things and are only sorry they got caught - because he will throw the book at them to the fullest extent he can.
She had the audacity to pick lint off of her clothes while Judge Simpson was in the middle of sentencing her! I was momentarily elated, then terribly dejected when I thought that he was actually sentencing her to the full 365 days in jail. 😪😡
Didn't he just let her off with 30 days in jail & 16 month probation... having SUSPENDED her 365 days in jail... which is, in effect, letting her off scot-free for ABUSE of a DISABLED CHILD... for which he acknowledged that she shows no remorse for doing, AND he's going to let her continue to take care of helpless children?? If I'm wrong I'd be happy to know it!
@zezavanhalen Sorry if I got that wrong. I know what you mean re president I can’t think of any public figure I respect more than this good judge. Certainly no one I would trust more to make decisions relative to our country!
"Your honor, I can't go to jail! I'm the only one in the family who can abuse OUR kids correctly!" I know it's not exactly what she said but the case kind of colored how I heard it. Unreal. 😵💫
It was FOUR months later and only after the Police Department contacted the mom, not even the school district. It is that point that is very telling and I think she may get her $10 million or at least a good amount.
My nephew got a serious head injury at his school. The school didn’t get him medical help, he only got to see a doctor when he got home that day with his head spilt open. The school has tried to cover it up but my sister is the wrong one to mess with. After getting conflicting stories, she opened a case against the school, they had to release cctv of what had happened to my nephew and it does match any of the teachers stories. Lawsuit currently loading…… Some of these schools have devils working as teachers.
I hope she wins. Won't change anything the damage is done but hopefully being sued will make it clear this is not okay. This is why I don't trust anyone with my special needs daughter. Sick people. Mom was great mom code protect each others babies
If all Judges took a lesson from Judge Simpson our courts would literally improve overnight! This man is the picture of intelligence, compassion, empathy, perception and fairness. He’s not on that bench to assert his power or to make friends.. he’s there to assert JUSTICE! Well done sir, thank you for serving your community with such grace and dignity!
More like “How dare he” he said it all about her nature. Whatever caused her to be cold hearted SHAME on her for taking it out on the wrong person .to me she appears to be bullyish
@@kenyonbissett3512I think it means she went in for 30 days instead of just 15, the balance suspended unless she fks up again then back in for the remainder?
You are so right. It's amazing to watch this thoughtful, intelligent, hilarious when he needs to be man, choosing his words so carefully.....truly an awesome judge. Oops, I have to edit, I forgot the hearts!! ❤ ❤ ❤
Didn’t you know? As Americans we’re offended by anything that sounds too much like right. And a judge like Simpson on the Supreme Court most certainly sounds too much like right.
365 days jail (less the 2 days time already served). She is to immediately serve 30 days, the rest of the 365 day term will be suspended (if she breaks the terms of probation she is recalled to jail to serve the rest of the sentence).
You know I’ve lost a lot of faith in our justice system in recent years, corrupt DAs letting off blatant criminals, corrupt cops etc…but Judge Simpson gives me a hope. An intelligent, principled, tough yet funny and compassionate man. If all judges in our society treated cases like him our entire justice system would be reformed over night. Once in a lifetime kind of man here.
"Whatever." You face the victim's family and "whatever" comes out of your mouth half a dozen times? Her demeanor is as if she screwed up their order at Burger King. Hopefully she gets a taste of restraint in jail.
It seemed like she was mocking their inconvenience, like you might apologize to someone who's complaining about you doing something correctly. Like, when I saw your car on fire, I pulled over immediately and used my fire extinguisher to put it out, and pulled you out quickly because I smelled gasoline and thought we could both be in a ball of fire. I'm sorry for the confusion I caused you when you woke up drunk with a sore arm. I'm sorry for whatever harm I caused you by hurrying, since my burns were only first degree.
The look on the judge's face the first time she cavalierly waved her hand in the family's direction and said "whatever" was priceless. Just the movement of his eyebrows and his stare showed disgust, sadness and a bit of anger. He saw into her heartless chest and was revolted. Great judge.
If she has significant health issues then that seems like a excuse she had no promblem abusing a special needs kid she's full of it thiers no remorse and if she has so many health promblems then how can shebwork 8:01
@@goonerbear8659 Correct. Judges don't have carte blanche to order whatever they like. They are bound by law, and the day they stop being bound by law is the same day the justice system is truly dead. Also, I like your choice of football team.
@@goonerbear8659 Thank you for explaining that! I had no idea that misdemeanor vs. felony convictions would direct where a convicted person would be remanded. I feel a bit more educated. And now I know why Judge Simpson didn't impose a harsher sentence.
You aint lying. They have youtube channels now. I am not kidding. Dont even ask just search from jail. They have inmates with phones, live streams, channels, laptops its beyond me.
They keep saying that the child was violent and aggressive. Parents call them babies and they harm people. Whenever they harm others, their parents look at everyone and mention Autism. That's not a pass for your children being violent, aggressive, abusive, and incontrollable. There's programs and facilities who are more suitable.
That victim impact statement was powerful. I haven’t heard of this case but the mom really hit me in the heart with how her child is impacted. It’s hard enough to explain to a typically developing kid that all grown ups aren’t trustworthy but for a special needs kid to find out the hard way is really heartbreaking
I dunno, when someone reads off of a prepared script, it leaves me completely unaffected or even a little annoyed if anything. Like, how could you *possibly* not remember what you want to say about a matter that supposedly affected you and/or your loved ones so heavily? Do you really need a teleprompter for this? Can't you just speak from the heart and not give a damn about sounding eloquent? But then I'm a sociopath and I know we tick very differently from you normies. Also, that sentencing seems pretty lenient for what she did. Should be at least a few months mandatory jail time. It's not gonna fix anything, but it might discourage her from doing this again.
@@RoseJ143I guess sometimes people write it down because once you start getting in your feelings and the emotions and adrenaline starts flowing, you forget to say certain things and make specific points that later you wish you would've done. That's how I see it anyway.
She was remanded to serve the year + 30 days. I'm not sure if there's a suspended sentence on top of that should she violate probation.@@kenyonbissett3512

And this is why Judge Simpson is one of my favorite judges. But what was really disturbing is the fact that she didn’t have a care in the world. She literally shrugged her shoulders. This woman is pure evil, and when she does get out of jail, she’s going to do it to someone else in the next time someone’s going to seriously her hopefully. I hope someone teaches her a lesson in jail.
There are a lot of mothers in jail wishing they were with their children right now, so the chances that this child abusing piece of crap will get at least one good thrashing are pretty high.
I have a special needs daughter and I am also a school bus driver. As a mom, I'd have probably been the case right after this psychopath's because I would have beat the brakes off her for hurting my baby! As a school bus driver, those babies are MY babies when they are on my bus! How dare someone abuse those sweet babies they have been trusted with!!!! Do I have holy terrors on my bus sometimes? Yes! I think of new and creative ways to redirect the behaviors but still hold them accountable and talk to them and also listen to them! As a school bus driver/monitor, your face is the first face a child sees on their school day and the last face they see at the end of their school day. Gotta do so much better man smh
"It's OK, take your time. We have all day" I literally cried when he said that. I feel for that mother. 😢😢 Her genuine concern and fear is just so clear. I completely adore Judge Simpson for cases like these. ❤❤
When my son who is non-verbal was 7 years old, he started acting out by refusing to get on the bus. Come to find out the school district gave one of the administrators delinquent son a job driving the bus for special needs children. Several children were hurt by his aggressive driving and the driver had one of the children, a little girl he had stand beside him while he drove; it was definitely his world. This was in Oklahoma in about 1987. I went to the school board and they acted like it was nothing because children were nonverbal and they couldn't say anything so there was nothing we could do. I am so happy they now have cameras on these buses to record these people who essentially use their position to abuse these children..
This isn't the first time she's done something like this. It's just the first time she was caught. She shouldn't have access to children ever again she's obviously a deviant person.
Well, insofar as the sentencing guidelines allow, she didn't get away with it. But I agree that fifteen days plus probation is a slap on the wrist. I don't know about twenty years, because that's getting into the second degree murder or kidnapping territory... but I would like to see her get three to five.
@@musicgtts She restrained (without training or parental permission) an autistic child, then slapped him multiple times. As he tried to escape the harness, she let him hang off the seat, as his feet were still caught in the restraint, then said he’d be going to jail.
@@musicgtts From what it sounds like, strapped him down and hit him, though they weren't too precise at this stage because that was all detailed during the trial phase.
The total lack of self awareness is disturbing, I would have liked more jail time and longer probation, I just hope this monster is banned from working with children or vulnerable adults.
Just like the Mother said, this woman is only sorry because she got caught. It's people like her that give a bad name to others that work in these fields.
There should be something along the lines of a List you go on. Very much like a Sexual Predator has to go through. Force you on that List where we the public can look you up. Also so we can know when you move into a neighborhood. This to me is just as 'Bad' as a Predator.
@@youtubegavemynameawaycuntbagsdo you feel that way about sex offenders? What about a serial killer who gets released? Should we give them a pat on the back and say "now be good"
Mom is suing THE SHIT out of the school district. They didn't even tell her what happened to her child. She found out weeks later cause they covered it up
This woman and her victim impact statement is amazing. She not only spoke her truth but gave a voice to all of those that couldn't. She's incredible and brave and everything that other lowlife woman is not and will never be! Classy, eloquent, beautiful, strong, brave, courageous, and an amazing human being, Teacher and mother.
Yes. Also, good for Judge Simpson, who stayed gentle with her through every tangled tongue, and made sure she had all the time in the world to say what she needed to say.
To brutalize any child is despicable but to do it to a special needs child is horrific. The temptation to beat the hell out of her is difficult to resist. I do hope that she receives the same cruelty that she inflicted on this child. She cannot even fake shame or remorse.
@DonnellxxOkafor They have separate rooms and classes for special needs children. The thought is it is more normal to mainstream them than to isolate them in separate schools.
Like the judge said, abusing a child is horrible but at least that child can verbalize the abuse to someone but abusing a child who cannot even do that because of a disability is one degree lower on the despicable level.
@DonnellxxOkafor My youngest is on the spectrum and I'm thankful our schoolboard was able to provide a Van for primary school. He just started grade 9 and is taking a bus to school. He's doing quite well in regular classes with his friends. These kids aren't handicapped. They have untapped potential. My son wants to be an Underwater Welder, and I know he will be.
@DonnellxxOkafor An autistic student is a regular student. Inability to speak does not equal an inability to understand. So for eg. the child may be non verbal, but able to read, write and use sign language to communicate, special school may not be an option because often the child needs to be diagnosed with an intellectual disability to be admitted and lastly, society is still quite bigoted towards ppl with disability. The best way to breakdown barriers is through exposure.
I am a school bus driver AND a mother of a special needs child and this is exactly why I LOVE JUDGE SIMPSON! He is the most down to earth, fair, but firm judge i have ever seen. I wish there were many more just like him! Don't come in that court room playing a game because he will show you how it's played EVERY TIME!
I love how he doubled her community service. He knows it’s not going to change her, and make her a better person. He just doubled the monitoring she’s going to have during probation. He knows that she’s going to violate, and will have to serve that year. Unfortunately, he’s constrained by the law, and cannot sentence her to longer than that. As for working with minors, this is now on her record. Even if she doesn’t disclose it on an application, it will show up on a background check. I’ve worked with both children and the elderly, and those have been the strictest background checks I’ve had for a job.
I agree with you! He knows it’s just a matter of time before she violates. Just look at how non chalant she is standing there. She doesn’t care. She will do that full year!
@@veebee9942That is a true but scary statement. Hopefully she will do everyone a favor and stay away from any job taking care of people or animals. Or even plants, vehicles, art, or fine furnishings for that matter. Just keep her away from anything civilized.
@@veebee9942I have worked in care facilities and child care in multiple states, and she wouldn't pass any background check. This was national news. If it hadn't gone to trial, but was fired for this she wouldn't pass. She'd have to get an entirely new identity.
@@melissaquinn6845 baby you got some shady places EVERYWHERE especially if she’s willing to accept a lower wage there are horror stories you never even get to hear of. Working in the medical field myself I will say I’m speaking from my own experience however understand what you’re saying as well.
Wow! That was a hell of a thing. I did not see that coming! I was thinking 30 or 60 days, but when he said 360 reasons I was like holy sh!t! Judge Simpson laid the smack down and it was beautiful.
It's a suspended sentence after 30 days. So if she slips up even a little in the 5 years of her probation (smoke weed, catch a charge, etc) then she goes in for a full year
I've never seen a Judge so angry and appalled at both a defense attny and their client during statements. He probably gave her the most sentence his state guidelines allow and she certainly deserved it. No remorse or shame what so ever.
The flat affect throughout the video was jaw-dropping. This woman is a sociopath. Should never be allowed to walk on the same side of the road as another child, let alone continue to drive school buses.
15:44 I love judge Simpson. He was fuming during the whole thing. I would be too. She tortured a little boy. And it’s an inconvenience to her to go to jail. 15 days is not long enough. CA’s deserve years. When I say 15 days.. I’m saying that’s what was recommended by the state/probation. I’m just saying that wasn’t enough. I heard what she got. I fully understand her sentence. It’s a slap in the face to even recommend 15 days jail time.
I have always loved judge Simpson, but WOW, he is now my Hero!!! As a single mom to an autistic child, thank you judge Simpson, for not letting something like this slip through the cracks!! I’m balling my eyes out, which started when I listened to that mom tell this traumatic story about what her child went through. I could write a 5000 word comment, but I won’t. Speechless is an understatement. Prayers for the mom and little Jace! No child should have to go through this! Proud of this mom for stepping up!! Thank you judge Simpson!! ❤❤❤
The word Narcissist has become so overused. That’s a diagnoses that people are just casually throwing around. It would be more accurate to say that this woman is inhumane, lacks empathy or remorse, and was horrifically abusive to children. She is callous and probably deserves to be put away for life.
@@dcg590 A narcissist can definitely possess those traits, but those traits themselves don’t make a narcissist. You simply don’t have enough information to make a diagnosis. Like I said, people are just throwing that word around anymore. A person can be mean, cruel or evil and that doesn’t mean they’re a narcissist.
I have a special needs child with Austism. It's not easy being a parent of an autistic child but the love I have for my son is undeniable. It's not easy for his educators either but they put things in place to ensure my son is happy and safe at school. To hear of another child, autistic or not, being abused in this fashion broke my heart. How anyone could EVER abuse a child and especially someone in a public school system who should be showing compassion and understanding is sobering as it is disappointing. PLEASE. When you see a child acting out please understand that not every child is just "being bad" but there may be other issues at play and that child isn't just being bad because they are a bad kid, it's because they may be anxious or scared and need a gentle touch and some understanding.
Even though there are patient well trained teachers and assitants in special ed departments. There are also some that should not be in this profession They need to be given a full evaulation and have the necessary schooling needed before they are hired. Not just trained for the position once they are hired.
My sister teaches self contained so ed. If anyone even thought about harming one of her students she would have their job and press charges She cuts no slack when it comes to her kids She has two sisters that she has brought home over various weekends to help the parents out and give them a break She buy clothes and food for them as well These children are children even if they are born with a disability They deserve respect!!!!!
As a mom of a special needs child, this is one of my biggest fears. He just entered high school, and this is the first time I’ve ever let him ride the bus. Thank you to the judge!
Hang in there. I know it's scary, but you just have to be vigilant. There is hope though. There are still kids out there that will befriend a special needs child and look out for them. Maybe not hang around and be pals all day, but they will stick up for them and make sure they are taken advantage of. Plus, you may get a good bus driver that won't let any of the bad stuff go on.
i’m a mom of a 22 year old autistic son who was abused in a residential setting. He was put in a residential placement because of behaviors during puberty. He is now home and has PTSD he can’t express his emotions and this is the most devastating thing a parent can go thru
I'm the mother of a 11 year old boy who has autism and is non verbal. This evil woman is exactly why I homeschool my son, a luxury I know so many parents of special needs child can't do. My heart breaks for this baby and his mother. I'm sure this event has turned their lives upside-down. Children with autism are extremely sensitive, and he probably still struggles to deal with the abuse he faced everyday. 💔 Edited to add: I love what Judge Simpson had to say and the sentence he imposed.
i too have a non verbal child and i am currently investigating my sons school as be came with a broken buckle on his backpack and was extremely quiet and sad. its sad we have trust in these people to care for our children.
I don't know how I'd be able to keep it together to address a teacher who not only made fun of my child and yelled at him, but apparently also assaulted him??
Agreed. Bailiff was positioned near the victim's mother during the victim impact statement and was ready to jump into action. The father who lunged at Larry Nassar (the gymnastics doctor who abused all those girls) basically got off without any consequences. Tough to blame him for going after Nassar.
She caused the stress. She's the reason her family will go without their main provider. She did this. No one else. Yet she is a selfish self centered victim. She will forever blame everyone else and never take accountability. Ever. She has no conscience. I hate when people use their kids as an exscuse to avoid jail. But why didn't you think of them before committing your crime?! Pathetic! Life has been horrendously hard for me. I'd neverrrrr harm a child, especially one with special needs. Grow up, stop with the exscuses, take responsibility and never work with kids again. Pleaseeee!
I bet if it was the other way around and someone did that to her kids. She would have a whole different outlook and not act like she’s inconvenienced by this.
"I wanna apologize for the harm I did or whatever"...." I, uhh, ya know, apologize from the bottom of my heart ya know ". She isn't sorry and has no remorse for anything other then getting caught.
"Yeah so like, I apologize from the bottom of my heart or what ever. Im sure it did something or what ever, but I really need let go free to keep going" most deep felt apologize Ive ever head. You could tell how truly devastated and traumatized by what ever.
I didn't even finish listening to this woman's impact statement before wanting to go off in this comment section, ranting about how horrible I feel for her, I have a 5 year old autistic daughter and I worrie every day if I should home school her or take the chance and send her to school. But I can't help but to worry when I see stuff like this happening every day either on youtube or the news. It's sad that our kids aren't even safe in this world today. So sad.
I think most of us respect and adore Judge Simpson, but I didn’t think I could appreciate him more than I already did prior to this. The things he said when he imposed his sentence, and the sentence itself, is what I’d expect from any kind-hearted, rational, and fair person, but he is able to say it so eloquently in the fewest words possible and I love him for that. I hope Jace is able to heal and get over the trauma Johnson so cruelly put him through. 💜
I have had to stop Watching most judges but I adore judge Simpson and judge Stevens jr They are for the victims , they do Justice when it needs to be done Like grampa judges who care as if all children are theirs
I could tell the judge is a joke and look what I found. Your righteous judge is terrible. I wonder what else he's done? (On November 12, 2014, the Michigan Judicial Tenure Commission (JTC) filed a formal complaint against Judge Cedric Simpson for interfering in a police investigation involving his intern, Crystal Marie Vargas. After a judicial misconduct hearing, the JTC recommended that Simpson be removed from the bench. [2] In July 2017, the Michigan Supreme Court ordered Simpson to serve a nine-month suspension without pay.)
@@perfectlittleangel What does Simpson’s judicial misconduct have to do with a defendant convicted of child abuse? This defendant struck a child on the bus then left him dangling upside down in a restraint, helpless and scared out of his mind. As if that’s not bad enough, he was a special needs child. Are you missing something?
@@rainingonyourcharade "I think most of us respect and adore Judge Simpson." This judge is terrible. He's got a God complex and loves when defendants beg. He's sick and people should know his true backstory if they say they adore him.
@@perfectlittleangel Yes, “sick” best describes the person who visited the scene of a fender bender and introduced himself as a judge and not the scumbag who abused and bullied children. 👌 And what makes you think someone doesn’t know “his true backstory” because they don’t share your opinion, or that others would be foolish enough to post an opinion without first knowing all there was to know? Would a community who likes to watch court proceedings and read court transcripts think three sentences someone pasted from google encompassed “his true backstory,” or would they have instead watched court proceedings and read court transcripts to form their own educated opinion long before someone assumed they hadn’t? 🤔
I'm so upset hearing what this woman has done to this child and has likely done to others. Thank you so much for capturing this important story and giving it the light and attention that it deserves.
@@justb4769 if you listen to the victim impact statement you can get the jist of it, he is developmentally delayed and physically disabled child and she physically abused him
My kids are grown now, but I got into it with some teachers and bus drivers. NO, my kids were not bad kids, I raised them to be respectful and to listen to adults. But if you put your hands on my kids, expect to have my hands on you.
As a mother of a 30-year old son with autism, my heart breaks for this family. She is not exaggerating that Jace will carry scars for life. The public didn’t know what autism was when my child was in school. It was my biggest fear that he would be mistreated by faculty. There were days he came home with gashes so deep on his face that we had to get stitches at the hospital and no one at the school cared it took responsibility. He has struggled with authority figures ever since. I raised him to always be respectful and that has kept him out of jail but it’s a struggle for him manage injustice. I’m so glad Judge Simpson saw this defendant as the self-absorbed person that she was.
Her attitude to what she did to that poor child, she should of got more jail time but I have feeling she’ll be back for breaching her probation and end up doing the full time and not be allowed near another child again!😮Also, judge Simpson is just amazing, the way he put her in her place was just brilliant! He’s a good man and an astounding judge! Bless him!❤
I zoomed in on the entire sentencing process, and that woman's lack of compassion or empathy is sickening. She is absolutely capable for harming someone severely in the future. I wish she could be sentenced to NEVER being alone with any child under the age of 18 ever again. And to the Momma, you're absolutely right, it's all our jobs to take care of each other's children. May you continue to find the strength to get through this. You are an amazing woman, and I wish you and your family nothing but the peace you all deserve.
I have such GREAT RESPECT and adoration for Judge Simpson. I wish Court Junkie's could do field trips JUST to sit and listen to this HONORABLE man!!!❤❤❤
@zombieasparagus6021 Oh, I have contemplated several times doing a field trip for a few days from my home in NC to go do just that. I admire him immensely and what an honor it would be to have an opportunity to possibly get the chance to meet him. Certainly it wouldn't be a guarantee, but it's a nice notion to have it on my bucket list! 😊🥰
@kimberlysmith1282 if you do follow through, check the docket, contact the courthouse about whether or not you may sit in, business dresscode, and most importantly, show respect to the court and its staff. I do encourage sitting in on court cases it's one of the best ways to learn court procedures and how the process works.
Reminder: Judge Simpson obstructed a DUI arrest of one of his clerks. He drove to the scene and tried to interfere with the officers. He does NOT believe in equal justice under the law; it's totally selective and biased.
I have a 33 years old daughter with autism and learning disabilities and am in UK and can honestly say my daughter loved her teachers and her school and happily went on her school transport with her carers. I can’t imagine what that poor child went through my heart goes out to that little boy and his parents. I still care for my daughter and always will until I die.
Judge Simpson is the nicest, most kind, patient judge I ever seen. So for him to become upset says a lot. God bless Judge Simpson. He's a rock star judge!
She didn’t do anything wrong,in her eyes. That must be how she treats her own children and or grandchildren. Charge her and put her in jail. She should never ever have a job around children ever again.
I've never seen a judge announce a sentence like that before and it was incredible to watch because you just know she thought that the 60 months of probation was in lieu of incarceration.
I've always loved Judge Cedrick Simpson. After watching how he dealt with the sentencing and his closing remarks, in my opinion...... He goes down as one of the BEST judges out there. We NEED more like him.
Thank you Judge Simpson!!!! She showed no mercy to that child and none should be shown to her! The fact that she was still working my with kids while being on trial blows my mind 🤦🏽♀️
Videos like this are why I make sure my adult brother with severe learning difficulties knows he must always always tell me if there are any problems with staff and/or service users at his daycentre. I am his big sister. I will help him live his best life.
I saw her attitude at the beginning of her "apology" and knew better than to watch it. After listening to the mother describe what happened and how she felt having to watch that video, I dont think I could've kept it together nearly as well as she did.
I cannot think of another case where I've seen Judge Simpson visibly having to 'pick his words' like that. You can see it in his face; he wanted to throw the book at this one...literally! Gotta love this Judge, I do. Like quite a few, but this man is the best of the best in my mind. Thanks again Old Squishy, the channel and what you present to us is fabulous. Always looking out for a new video.
And she’s asking for leniency, when you work with children especially vulnerable children,the moment you feel that anger boiling up in you, quit your job, or asked to be transferred, that’s how you stay out of jail!!!,,she’s very lucky little man is ok 😱😱🙏🏻’s to him& his family & TY sooo much ✌🏻💕
As I watched the Officers who were standing by in the courtroom I wondered if they already anticipated she would be remanded to custody. This was the only outcome that could possibly serve justice.
Judge Simpson is a wonderful Judge!! He is a true gentleman too!! He is ALWAYS fair!!!! He deserves to be called your honor!! I watch him on RUclips every day. He is a honorable man !!!
I need to rent my time out to parents like this. I would happily catch jail time to teach this lady some real manners. A mother need not dirty her hands when I will for her...
This should be a service, knowing your child was hurt and wanting to retaliate but knowing doing so will take you from your child is a helpless feeling.
I'm doing time for mine. No one else will get the satisfaction that I'll feel if I do it myself. My niece is nonverbal autistic and I told my sister that I'll handle it for her. I already have a background. I'll take the charges.
Prison and karma are the only 2 things that would stop me. The problem with this is I think the mom was clueless until the school showed her the video. It was already too late to go vigilante. But man, it would be tough to not do to her exactly what she did to my child.
I liked Judge Simpson before seeing this, and now I think he's amazing. If there had been a way to bar her from ever working with children again or to even in any sort of elder care situation (because she would abuse any helpless being), that would have been totally warranted.
Yo there, your honor, your compassion actually bestirred my dormant heart. Damn near made me cry. Not joking. Like to see more of this in our justice system, and I thank you.
the fact that the school district thinks they will be able to hold a 7 year old criminally liable is DISGUSTING. shame on ann arbor school systems for supporting this OBVIOUS ABUSE.
@@Nexus_of_SominusI can't find anything that shows the school board is trying to hold the kid criminally liable, but if you want to know more, just search for Rochanda Jefferson. She is the one that hit the child.
@@Nexus_of_Sominus she worked for/ in? the school. The child was having a meltdown screaming. So she strapped the child to a chair and becuase the kid couldnt fully communicate what happened it was all kept a secret from the family ( i think for like a month) word got out people got charge hence this vid
“I want to apologize for the harm I did and you know, whatever.” Very eloquent, spoken straight from the heart. 🙄
"Whatever" translated means: "I have to say this, but I really don't give a damn one way or the other!
Typical digger.
Thank you BC I couldn’t understand anything that she said.....
I'm sorry 🙄 or whatever.
NOW let's get on to what's important ... ME!!! I need this, want that, deserve this, and am entitled to that
She has no empathy. That’s why she said this.
Any supposed apology that includes "or whatever" is completely insincere. She's banned from any job around children for the probation period, but maybe there needs to be a registry for serious child abuse that resembles the sex offender registry.
Agreed. I don't know why we don't have something like that already in place
We have 2 separate systems here I assume similar in other states. The department of Human Services also does either a child protection or vulnerable adult investigation separately from the criminal system. My son with special needs was also abused as was my father in assisted living. Both with witnesses and video. Without that, many cases go nowhere we have been told. I'm also a county case manager for adults with special needs, and have seen many cases not protect our kids and vulnerable adults.
Anyway, the two women who abused my dad were charged criminally and only one did the jury find guilty (the poor one who couldn't afford a private attorney to get her off) but BOTH were found responsible by DHS and can't pass a background check for any job requiring a DHS background check. That's required for any human service job here. They are excluded from providing direct services. Stinks especially for the one who was just taking her nursing boards who got off her criminal charge. But she chose to toss an old man with dementia around his room, pit her arm around his neck in a choke hold to remove clothes, and kneeled on his chest because he couldn't understand her or move fast enough. The terror in his voice and words was the most heartbreaking thing ever. 💔
Thank heaven she can't pass the background check here....but it's not national.
Most states do, NY does so idk why other states don’t maybe a money issue or they say it’s a money issue
A lot of states have a child abuse registry, but every one of them should have!
She'll never be able to work with children again. Her history will follow her. I wouldn't trust her to be around any children, not even her granddaughter. Nope.
Judge Simpson is an epitome of what an ideal judge should be. He’s fair, compassionate,emphatic,aware,observant, well spoken, intelligent and warmhearted. Kudos to you Judge.
👨🏾⚖️🦸🏾♂️😄
He's an absolute blessing. As a father of a disabled child, I was close to tears a couple of time swatching this. The complete antipathy so many people have, how subhuman they find those with disabilities, is exactly what this so called 'teacher' has writ large on every part of her being, and to see the Judge bring home some measured, empathetic, understanding, firm justice was good to see.
Not just a judge but a man
"Fair", and for all the reasons you listed. He's "fair".
When a judge says “thank you for allowing me to continue in my courtroom” you know you’re on their bad side.
You know you screwed and JAIL is happening!
yeah, I sat back in my chair like "ooooh shit "
Its the people’s courtroom for a start
That's when they know they should shut up.
Reminder: Judge Simpson obstructed a DUI arrest of one of his clerks. He drove to the scene and tried to interfere with the officers. He does NOT believe in equal justice under the law; it's totally selective and biased.
Her face, posture, and entire attitude screams that this is all just an inconvenience to her! Well done Judge.
I came on to say this very thing. When she shrugged her shoulders I wanted to slap the indifference off of her smug face. Evil walks among us and she’s it. 🤬
Judge Simpson is compassionate when a person shows true remorse, but woe be to creatures like this female who do wicked things and are only sorry they got caught - because he will throw the book at them to the fullest extent he can.
She had the audacity to pick lint off of her clothes while Judge Simpson was in the middle of sentencing her!
I was momentarily elated, then terribly dejected when I thought that he was actually sentencing her to the full 365 days in jail. 😪😡
@@orcasgirl1 same about the jail sentence.
Poor attorney Reed; she looks as if she wants to dig a hole and jump in it quick fast
Can we just have this judge run for president
I will vote for him
Didn't he just let her off with 30 days in jail & 16 month probation... having SUSPENDED her 365 days in jail... which is, in effect, letting her off scot-free for ABUSE of a DISABLED CHILD... for which he acknowledged that she shows no remorse for doing, AND he's going to let her continue to take care of helpless children?? If I'm wrong I'd be happy to know it!
@@Irish_Georgia_GirlNope, you are not wrong!
So he gave her a year?

Sorry if I got that wrong.

I can’t think of any public figure I respect more than this good judge. Certainly no one I would trust more to make decisions relative to our country!
ME TOO, VOTE FOR HIM.
I am so thankful they pressed charges. This woman shouldn't ever, EVER be near kids again. I have no words.
150% agree michelle!
"Your honor, I can't go to jail! I'm the only one in the family who can abuse OUR kids correctly!" I know it's not exactly what she said but the case kind of colored how I heard it. Unreal. 😵💫
💯
I don't get it. She did absolutely nothing wrong!
I know! She’s evil & did everything right the way she knows
The school knew about this and covered it up for over a month. The parents are suing for $10 million.
It was FOUR months later and only after the Police Department contacted the mom, not even the school district. It is that point that is very telling and I think she may get her $10 million or at least a good amount.
My nephew got a serious head injury at his school. The school didn’t get him medical help, he only got to see a doctor when he got home that day with his head spilt open. The school has tried to cover it up but my sister is the wrong one to mess with. After getting conflicting stories, she opened a case against the school, they had to release cctv of what had happened to my nephew and it does match any of the teachers stories. Lawsuit currently loading…… Some of these schools have devils working as teachers.
what even went down? what school? do u have news videos to send? im really wondering what happened?
I hope she wins. Won't change anything the damage is done but hopefully being sued will make it clear this is not okay. This is why I don't trust anyone with my special needs daughter. Sick people. Mom was great mom code protect each others babies

judge Simpson for President 2024
I concur wholeheartedly he is a gem. No holds bar attic love it
I’m not good with legal stuff, did she have to serve 360 days or was it suspended? Appreciate any help!
She’ll be sitting in jail and spend the entire time thinking, “how could that judge do that to ME?”
More like “How dare he” he said it all about her nature. Whatever caused her to be cold hearted SHAME on her for taking it out on the wrong person .to me she appears to be bullyish
She's one of those, "me me me" people.
Did she get 360 days or was it suspended? Appreciate anyone explaining it to me!
@@kenyonbissett3512I think it means she went in for 30 days instead of just 15, the balance suspended unless she fks up again then back in for the remainder?
@@johndagenais2565correct! And she’ll undoubtedly fuck up. So I’m sure she’ll end up serving it.
I've said it so many times "I love Judge Simpson" today his compassion & integrity during sentencing brought me to tears. Well done sir, well done!!
Why were you in tears. A bit OTT I think.
If someone is issuing an apology and the words "Whatever" are used at any point for any reason, you can just throw the whole apology out
It’s like saying “I’m sorry, but”. Just throw out anything else said after that because it’s meaningless.
Yeah, that whatever got to me. It's like I'll take the probation and except that, but anything else, I'm not excepting at all. SMH
She has poor vocabulary skills. She can hardly pull a full sentences together. She's disturbed.
Unless it’s “I’ll do whatever I need to” lol
“I can’t go to jail. My daughter has to get to work.”
Imagine how many people could be released from their sentences right now!
Horrible pos. Never been told no, won’t be told what to do, never held accountable. Typical
Well that kid can take the bus now.

Didn’t you know?
As Americans we’re offended by anything that sounds too much like right.
And a judge like Simpson on the Supreme Court most certainly sounds too much like right.
I love how he read off the probation and other charges first. To make her think she wasn't getting jail time.
I thought he wasn’t going to sentence her, I was thinking.. WHAT , but he saved the best till last!!
I fully agree! Judge Simpson is definitely elite 💪🧠💪
I am a little confused though - how much time will she actually spend in jail?
my question exactly …. how much immediate jail time did she get?
@@_Tylor_probably 6 months but that's a long time in a county jail 😂
365 days jail (less the 2 days time already served).
She is to immediately serve 30 days, the rest of the 365 day term will be suspended (if she breaks the terms of probation she is recalled to jail to serve the rest of the sentence).
You know I’ve lost a lot of faith in our justice system in recent years, corrupt DAs letting off blatant criminals, corrupt cops etc…but Judge Simpson gives me a hope. An intelligent, principled, tough yet funny and compassionate man. If all judges in our society treated cases like him our entire justice system would be reformed over night. Once in a lifetime kind of man here.
Your speaking the thoughts of many people who agree with you...
Confirmed he was indeed suspended 9 months for interfering in his intern getting arrested in 2017.
Following this man puts my faith in our country again
"Whatever." You face the victim's family and "whatever" comes out of your mouth half a dozen times? Her demeanor is as if she screwed up their order at Burger King. Hopefully she gets a taste of restraint in jail.
That’s exactly what I thought! Whatever and whatever!
It seemed like she was mocking their inconvenience, like you might apologize to someone who's complaining about you doing something correctly. Like, when I saw your car on fire, I pulled over immediately and used my fire extinguisher to put it out, and pulled you out quickly because I smelled gasoline and thought we could both be in a ball of fire. I'm sorry for the confusion I caused you when you woke up drunk with a sore arm. I'm sorry for whatever harm I caused you by hurrying, since my burns were only first degree.
🙌🏾
My thought exactly. She was not sincere, nonchalant, and sloppy= the trash took itself out 🎉
The look on the judge's face the first time she cavalierly waved her hand in the family's direction and said "whatever" was priceless. Just the movement of his eyebrows and his stare showed disgust, sadness and a bit of anger. He saw into her heartless chest and was revolted. Great judge.
I've never found judge Simpson frightening, but the quiet smiling fury while telling her she wasn't sorry was terrifying
Definitely gave off the "Ima beat a bitch" vibe. Never in my life do I want that man mad at me.😆
@@LilMomma-kz8wuhahahahaha too true 😂😂
The mother couldn't have gotten a better judge.
Definitely!!!!!!
If she has significant health issues then that seems like a excuse she had no promblem abusing a special needs kid she's full of it thiers no remorse and if she has so many health promblems then how can shebwork 8:01
She got off TOO DAMN EASY if you asked me. Should have been DOC, not County Jail
Well, she was charged with a misdemeanor, so jail was it. Prison/DOC is for felony convictions.
@@goonerbear8659 Correct. Judges don't have carte blanche to order whatever they like. They are bound by law, and the day they stop being bound by law is the same day the justice system is truly dead.
Also, I like your choice of football team.
@@goonerbear8659 Thank you for explaining that! I had no idea that misdemeanor vs. felony convictions would direct where a convicted person would be remanded. I feel a bit more educated. And now I know why Judge Simpson didn't impose a harsher sentence.
I've heard that prison is easier than jail
You aint lying. They have youtube channels now. I am not kidding. Dont even ask just search from jail. They have inmates with phones, live streams, channels, laptops its beyond me.
The idea that she might lose her job is insane. Why didn't she get immediately terminated is beyond me.
Wait she is still work the same job??
She's a black woman
She likely got fired from the school bus job but had a new job.
The mother said in her statement that the defendant had spoken during the trial about a new job, out of state.
She lost her bus driver job immediately
Beware when Judge Simpson leans back in his chair and he is NOT smiling. "That's somebody's baby." I wish more people would understand that.
Weird, cause I wish everybody understood that just because this is *your* baby doesn't make it everyone else's responsibility.
They keep saying that the child was violent and aggressive. Parents call them babies and they harm people. Whenever they harm others, their parents look at everyone and mention Autism. That's not a pass for your children being violent, aggressive, abusive, and incontrollable. There's programs and facilities who are more suitable.
@@bluedragonfly8139 In what world is that baby not the bus driver's responsibility?
Judge Cedric has my vote. This man is more perceptive and compassionate than ive ever seen
That victim impact statement was powerful. I haven’t heard of this case but the mom really hit me in the heart with how her child is impacted. It’s hard enough to explain to a typically developing kid that all grown ups aren’t trustworthy but for a special needs kid to find out the hard way is really heartbreaking
100%
I completely agree, it was heart wrenching to hear the mom say that it is a code of mother's that we take care of our children.
Heart wrenching
I dunno, when someone reads off of a prepared script, it leaves me completely unaffected or even a little annoyed if anything. Like, how could you *possibly* not remember what you want to say about a matter that supposedly affected you and/or your loved ones so heavily? Do you really need a teleprompter for this? Can't you just speak from the heart and not give a damn about sounding eloquent? But then I'm a sociopath and I know we tick very differently from you normies. Also, that sentencing seems pretty lenient for what she did. Should be at least a few months mandatory jail time. It's not gonna fix anything, but it might discourage her from doing this again.
@@RoseJ143I guess sometimes people write it down because once you start getting in your feelings and the emotions and adrenaline starts flowing, you forget to say certain things and make specific points that later you wish you would've done. That's how I see it anyway.
The way he delivered that 365 gave me chills.
There is something about a quiet and justified anger that is terrifying in all the right ways.
Will the 360 days or was it suspended?
She was remanded to serve the year + 30 days. I'm not sure if there's a suspended sentence on top of that should she violate probation.@@kenyonbissett3512
@@kenyonbissett3512 suspended
She only has to serve 30 days unless she messes up her probation. Then she could be forced to serve the year.

Pathetic apology , for sure . The judge gave her every opportunity to be remorseful and she blew it.
And this is why Judge Simpson is one of my favorite judges. But what was really disturbing is the fact that she didn’t have a care in the world. She literally shrugged her shoulders. This woman is pure evil, and when she does get out of jail, she’s going to do it to someone else in the next time someone’s going to seriously her hopefully. I hope someone teaches her a lesson in jail.
When she get out I hope there's someone at the gate waiting to get on her behind fr
There are a lot of mothers in jail wishing they were with their children right now, so the chances that this child abusing piece of crap will get at least one good thrashing are pretty high.
I have a special needs daughter and I am also a school bus driver. As a mom, I'd have probably been the case right after this psychopath's because I would have beat the brakes off her for hurting my baby! As a school bus driver, those babies are MY babies when they are on my bus! How dare someone abuse those sweet babies they have been trusted with!!!! Do I have holy terrors on my bus sometimes? Yes! I think of new and creative ways to redirect the behaviors but still hold them accountable and talk to them and also listen to them! As a school bus driver/monitor, your face is the first face a child sees on their school day and the last face they see at the end of their school day. Gotta do so much better man smh
Even with the captioning, I really couldn't understand about 98% of what the defendant said...but "whatever" always came out as a clear as a bell.
I have a special needs child who is now 33 years old. However if someone even thinks they can abuse him- think again
"It's OK, take your time. We have all day" I literally cried when he said that. I feel for that mother. 😢😢 Her genuine concern and fear is just so clear. I completely adore Judge Simpson for cases like these. ❤❤
I love Judge Simpson, he has a heart of GOLD!!!!
When my son who is non-verbal was 7 years old, he started acting out by refusing to get on the bus. Come to find out the school district gave one of the administrators delinquent son a job driving the bus for special needs children. Several children were hurt by his aggressive driving and the driver had one of the children, a little girl he had stand beside him while he drove; it was definitely his world. This was in Oklahoma in about 1987. I went to the school board and they acted like it was nothing because children were nonverbal and they couldn't say anything so there was nothing we could do. I am so happy they now have cameras on these buses to record these people who essentially use their position to abuse these children..
This isn't the first time she's done something like this. It's just the first time she was caught. She shouldn't have access to children ever again she's obviously a deviant person.
I think your right makes my gut sick
Life in prison. I don't have time for this. No second chances.
She should have gotten 20 years. She knew that the kid couldn't say anything and thought she would get away with it.
What she forgot was that words are not the only form of communication there is.
Well, insofar as the sentencing guidelines allow, she didn't get away with it. But I agree that fifteen days plus probation is a slap on the wrist. I don't know about twenty years, because that's getting into the second degree murder or kidnapping territory... but I would like to see her get three to five.
What did she do to the child
@@musicgtts She restrained (without training or parental permission) an autistic child, then slapped him multiple times. As he tried to escape the harness, she let him hang off the seat, as his feet were still caught in the restraint, then said he’d be going to jail.
@@musicgtts From what it sounds like, strapped him down and hit him, though they weren't too precise at this stage because that was all detailed during the trial phase.
The problem is - if you have no empathy, you have no empathy.
U HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD.
Facts! They simply do not exist and are not registered at all. Pure nothingness.
She really said "Whatever. Whatever. I truly am sorry."
Im dead. 😂 Zero Remorse.
exactly…no remorse at all.
The total lack of self awareness is disturbing, I would have liked more jail time and longer probation, I just hope this monster is banned from working with children or vulnerable adults.
Just like the Mother said, this woman is only sorry because she got caught. It's people like her that give a bad name to others that work in these fields.
There should be something along the lines of a List you go on.
Very much like a Sexual Predator has to go through.
Force you on that List where we the public can look you up.
Also so we can know when you move into a neighborhood.
This to me is just as 'Bad' as a Predator.
With a child abuse conviction, she will not be allowed to work at any licensed facility that works with children.
exactly. great comment.

She's incredible and brave and everything that other lowlife woman is not and will never be! Classy, eloquent, beautiful, strong, brave, courageous, and an amazing human being, Teacher and mother.
Yes. Also, good for Judge Simpson, who stayed gentle with her through every tangled tongue, and made sure she had all the time in the world to say what she needed to say.
I've seen him do that with victims giving impact statements before - he treats them with the utmost respect.
Can tell she's a true follower of Jesus. Born again believers are about forgiveness.

To brutalize any child is despicable but to do it to a special needs child is horrific. The temptation to beat the hell out of her is difficult to resist. I do hope that she receives the same cruelty that she inflicted on this child. She cannot even fake shame or remorse.
@DonnellxxOkafor They have separate rooms and classes for special needs children. The thought is it is more normal to mainstream them than to isolate them in separate schools.
Like the judge said, abusing a child is horrible but at least that child can verbalize the abuse to someone but abusing a child who cannot even do that because of a disability is one degree lower on the despicable level.
@DonnellxxOkafor He was seven.
@DonnellxxOkafor My youngest is on the spectrum and I'm thankful our schoolboard was able to provide a Van for primary school.
He just started grade 9 and is taking a bus to school. He's doing quite well in regular classes with his friends.
These kids aren't handicapped. They have untapped potential. My son wants to be an Underwater Welder, and I know he will be.
@DonnellxxOkafor An autistic student is a regular student. Inability to speak does not equal an inability to understand. So for eg. the child may be non verbal, but able to read, write and use sign language to communicate, special school may not be an option because often the child needs to be diagnosed with an intellectual disability to be admitted and lastly, society is still quite bigoted towards ppl with disability. The best way to breakdown barriers is through exposure.
I love judge Simpson even more after watching this. Thank you.
I am a school bus driver AND a mother of a special needs child and this is exactly why I LOVE JUDGE SIMPSON! He is the most down to earth, fair, but firm judge i have ever seen.

I've driven special needs kids amongst others for 13 years and I've never even heard of something like this.

I love how he doubled her community service. He knows it’s not going to change her, and make her a better person. He just doubled the monitoring she’s going to have during probation. He knows that she’s going to violate, and will have to serve that year.
Unfortunately, he’s constrained by the law, and cannot sentence her to longer than that.
As for working with minors, this is now on her record. Even if she doesn’t disclose it on an application, it will show up on a background check. I’ve worked with both children and the elderly, and those have been the strictest background checks I’ve had for a job.
I agree with you! He knows it’s just a matter of time before she violates. Just look at how non chalant she is standing there. She doesn’t care. She will do that full year!

It's a suspended sentence after 30 days. So if she slips up even a little in the 5 years of her probation (smoke weed, catch a charge, etc) then she goes in for a full year

And that's why I think Judge Simpson is an incredible judge and a truly wonderful person.
I've never seen a Judge so angry and appalled at both a defense attny and their client during statements. He probably gave her the most sentence his state guidelines allow and she certainly deserved it. No remorse or shame what so ever.
The flat affect throughout the video was jaw-dropping. This woman is a sociopath. Should never be allowed to walk on the same side of the road as another child, let alone continue to drive school buses.
Wow! Nothing but respect for Judge Simpson.
15:44 I love judge Simpson. He was fuming during the whole thing. I would be too. She tortured a little boy. And it’s an inconvenience to her to go to jail. 15 days is not long enough. CA’s deserve years.
When I say 15 days.. I’m saying that’s what was recommended by the state/probation. I’m just saying that wasn’t enough. I heard what she got. I fully understand her sentence. It’s a slap in the face to even recommend 15 days jail time.

She is clearly a narcissist, incapable of empathy. No matter how long she spends in jail, she’ll never feel anything for anyone other than herself.
The word Narcissist has become so overused. That’s a diagnoses that people are just casually throwing around. It would be more accurate to say that this woman is inhumane, lacks empathy or remorse, and was horrifically abusive to children. She is callous and probably deserves to be put away for life.
@@MarieAntoinetteandherlittlesisI agree, an absolute disgrace to society. Pure trash!!
@@MarieAntoinetteandherlittlesisyou just described a narcissist.
@@dcg590 A narcissist can definitely possess those traits, but those traits themselves don’t make a narcissist. You simply don’t have enough information to make a diagnosis. Like I said, people are just throwing that word around anymore. A person can be mean, cruel or evil and that doesn’t mean they’re a narcissist.
Maybe Asperger
What an evil lady to treat that child like that. Judge Simpson is a class act he's definitely one of my favorite judges... love and prayers for Jace💚
Amen Amen and Amen 🙏 again
I have a special needs child with Austism. It's not easy being a parent of an autistic child but the love I have for my son is undeniable. It's not easy for his educators either but they put things in place to ensure my son is happy and safe at school.
To hear of another child, autistic or not, being abused in this fashion broke my heart. How anyone could EVER abuse a child and especially someone in a public school system who should be showing compassion and understanding is sobering as it is disappointing.
PLEASE. When you see a child acting out please understand that not every child is just "being bad" but there may be other issues at play and that child isn't just being bad because they are a bad kid, it's because they may be anxious or scared and need a gentle touch and some understanding.
Even though there are patient well trained teachers and assitants in special ed departments. There are also some that should not be in this profession They need to be given a full evaulation and have the necessary schooling needed before they are hired. Not just trained for the position once they are hired.
Facts cause I have special needs child with austim totally understand smh
I have two with autism, one not sufficiently verbal to always tell something like that. My heart is broken.
My sister teaches self contained so ed. If anyone even thought about harming one of her students she would have their job and press charges
She cuts no slack when it comes to her kids
She has two sisters that she has brought home over various weekends to help the parents out and give them a break
She buy clothes and food for them as well
These children are children even if they are born with a disability
They deserve respect!!!!!
And the majority of these children can’t explain what they’re feeling or trying to say, which leads to more frustration for the child.
As a mom of a special needs child, this is one of my biggest fears. He just entered high school, and this is the first time I’ve ever let him ride the bus. Thank you to the judge!
I wish you and your family the best. My son isn't special needs and I fear him getting on a school bus.
Hang in there. I know it's scary, but you just have to be vigilant. There is hope though. There are still kids out there that will befriend a special needs child and look out for them. Maybe not hang around and be pals all day, but they will stick up for them and make sure they are taken advantage of. Plus, you may get a good bus driver that won't let any of the bad stuff go on.
i’m a mom of a 22 year old autistic son who was abused in a residential setting. He was put in a residential placement because of behaviors during puberty. He is now home and has PTSD he can’t express his emotions and this is the most devastating thing a parent can go thru
My daughter is 8 and autistic. I have the same fears. I just pray that our children have better people around them.
I'm the mother of a 11 year old boy who has autism and is non verbal. This evil woman is exactly why I homeschool my son, a luxury I know so many parents of special needs child can't do. My heart breaks for this baby and his mother. I'm sure this event has turned their lives upside-down. Children with autism are extremely sensitive, and he probably still struggles to deal with the abuse he faced everyday. 💔
Edited to add: I love what Judge Simpson had to say and the sentence he imposed.
❤️❤️❤️
Liz, very well said! 👏❤️
From one mother to another, God bless you.🙏
i too have a non verbal child and i am currently investigating my sons school as be came with a broken buckle on his backpack and was extremely quiet and sad. its sad we have trust in these people to care for our children.
A non verbal student is the most vulnerable children of all. If I had a special needs student I would home school too ❤️❤️❤️
I don't know how I'd be able to keep it together to address a teacher who not only made fun of my child and yelled at him, but apparently also assaulted him??
Agreed. Bailiff was positioned near the victim's mother during the victim impact statement and was ready to jump into action.
The father who lunged at Larry Nassar (the gymnastics doctor who abused all those girls) basically got off without any consequences. Tough to blame him for going after Nassar.
There's video, it's awful. I wouldn't have kept it together.
We be fighting! I don't condone fighting, but you touch my child, all that goes out the window!
@@christinerichardson6596 I just told my teenager the same thing. I would have been before the judge because I would have done the same thing to her.
You and me both, I believe they would be taking me to jail
It didn't hit her til the Judge said, 'I don't care if you lose your job, and that she was going to jail.
This bailiff knows his judge so well. Standing behind the defendant during sentencing!
She caused the stress. She's the reason her family will go without their main provider. She did this. No one else. Yet she is a selfish self centered victim. She will forever blame everyone else and never take accountability. Ever. She has no conscience. I hate when people use their kids as an exscuse to avoid jail. But why didn't you think of them before committing your crime?! Pathetic! Life has been horrendously hard for me. I'd neverrrrr harm a child, especially one with special needs. Grow up, stop with the exscuses, take responsibility and never work with kids again. Pleaseeee!
I bet if it was the other way around and someone did that to her kids. She would have a whole different outlook and not act like she’s inconvenienced by this.
She was talking about taking care of her granddaughter for her daughter to go to college, the granddaughter was the little baby in the court room.
@@gladysstewart9011 I know
This is the result of victim mentality, zero accountability, handouts and never being told no.
"I wanna apologize for the harm I did or whatever"...." I, uhh, ya know, apologize from the bottom of my heart ya know ". She isn't sorry and has no remorse for anything other then getting caught.
Harm I did…or whatever🤬🤬🤯
This man is a very good judge.
"Yeah so like, I apologize from the bottom of my heart or what ever. Im sure it did something or what ever, but I really need let go free to keep going" most deep felt apologize Ive ever head. You could tell how truly devastated and traumatized by what ever.
I had to go back when I heard the “whatever.” I couldn’t believe she said that, and I was sure I’d misunderstood. Nope.
Man, this is a very good judge. Some judges go through trials as if it’s a job. He goes through them as if this is what he was born to do.
I believe it is what he was born to do.
utter cringe
@@magicponyrides I know right
He was born to do it
👨🏾⚖️🦸🏽♂️😂
I didn't even finish listening to this woman's impact statement before wanting to go off in this comment section, ranting about how horrible I feel for her, I have a 5 year old autistic daughter and I worrie every day if I should home school her or take the chance and send her to school. But I can't help but to worry when I see stuff like this happening every day either on youtube or the news. It's sad that our kids aren't even safe in this world today. So sad.
I think most of us respect and adore Judge Simpson, but I didn’t think I could appreciate him more than I already did prior to this. The things he said when he imposed his sentence, and the sentence itself, is what I’d expect from any kind-hearted, rational, and fair person, but he is able to say it so eloquently in the fewest words possible and I love him for that. I hope Jace is able to heal and get over the trauma Johnson so cruelly put him through. 💜
I have had to stop
Watching most judges but I adore judge Simpson and judge Stevens jr
They are for the victims , they do Justice when it needs to be done
Like grampa judges who care as if all children are theirs
I could tell the judge is a joke and look what I found. Your righteous judge is terrible. I wonder what else he's done?
(On November 12, 2014, the Michigan Judicial Tenure Commission (JTC) filed a formal complaint against Judge Cedric Simpson for interfering in a police investigation involving his intern, Crystal Marie Vargas. After a judicial misconduct hearing, the JTC recommended that Simpson be removed from the bench. [2] In July 2017, the Michigan Supreme Court ordered Simpson to serve a nine-month suspension without pay.)
@@perfectlittleangel What does Simpson’s judicial misconduct have to do with a defendant convicted of child abuse? This defendant struck a child on the bus then left him dangling upside down in a restraint, helpless and scared out of his mind. As if that’s not bad enough, he was a special needs child. Are you missing something?
@@rainingonyourcharade "I think most of us respect and adore Judge Simpson." This judge is terrible. He's got a God complex and loves when defendants beg. He's sick and people should know his true backstory if they say they adore him.
@@perfectlittleangel Yes, “sick” best describes the person who visited the scene of a fender bender and introduced himself as a judge and not the scumbag who abused and bullied children. 👌 And what makes you think someone doesn’t know “his true backstory” because they don’t share your opinion,
or that others would be foolish enough to post an opinion without first knowing all there was to know? Would a community who likes to watch court proceedings and read court transcripts think three sentences someone pasted from google encompassed “his true backstory,” or would they have instead watched court proceedings and read court transcripts to form their own educated opinion long before someone assumed they hadn’t? 🤔
I'm so upset hearing what this woman has done to this child and has likely done to others. Thank you so much for capturing this important story and giving it the light and attention that it deserves.
important for folks to see!
That's what is scary is that I doubt this was the first time, her attitude says this is everyday behavior
What exactly did she do to the boy? I'm trying to find the court case
@@justb4769 if you listen to the victim impact statement you can get the jist of it, he is developmentally delayed and physically disabled child and she physically abused him
There was video which wasn't broadcasted on RUclips as the victim is a child.@@justb4769
I love Judge Simpson. He’s so on the ball, he doesn’t miss a trick. He’s just so relatable how he interacts with people.
I have never love Judge Simpson more than I do right now. Yes! Kids should ALWAYS come 1st. 100% of the time.
a national treasure!
If someone hit my kid like what was described here, it would be very difficult to not react violently
Protect ourselves, my child before 18 is my responsibility. That woman would be done.
My kids are grown now, but I got into it with some teachers and bus drivers. NO, my kids were not bad kids, I raised them to be respectful and to listen to adults. But if you put your hands on my kids, expect to have my hands on you.
Violence solves nothing. Nothing.
@@Haarschmuckfachgeschafttadpoleyou're right. But damn, it feels good on the moment
@@Haarschmuckfachgeschafttadpole Actually, some times it does. The Normandy invasion comes to mind. Not a first choice though.
This judge is awesome ..he’s fair he is compassionate..we really need more like him that’s for sure
fully agree with you
As a mother of a 30-year old son with autism, my heart breaks for this family. She is not exaggerating that Jace will carry scars for life. The public didn’t know what autism was when my child was in school. It was my biggest fear that he would be mistreated by faculty. There were days he came home with gashes so deep on his face that we had to get stitches at the hospital and no one at the school cared it took responsibility. He has struggled with authority figures ever since. I raised him to always be respectful and that has kept him out of jail but it’s a struggle for him manage injustice. I’m so glad Judge Simpson saw this defendant as the self-absorbed person that she was.
Carrie..thanks for sharing..i can not even BEGIN to imagine teh stress from constant fear of one of your kids being taken advantage of...
Warrior Mama, that's what you are. How blessed you are to have each other.
I feel for both of you.
Hope the future holds brighter things.
I feel for both of you.

I feel for both of you.

Judge Simpson is so compassionate!
Only Judge Simpson can get more irate by the second, yet be compassionate for the mother! Love his soul!
When the defendants opening statement began with an "Ummmm" and seeded with a couple of 'whatever's' I knew things were not going to go well for her.
Her attitude to what she did to that poor child, she should of got more jail time but I have feeling she’ll be back for breaching her probation and end up doing the full time and not be allowed near another child again!😮Also, judge Simpson is just amazing, the way he put her in her place was just brilliant! He’s a good man and an astounding judge! Bless him!❤
Judge Simpson is a TREASURE. That was riveting, unbelievable.
Hopefully that horrible woman learns some remorse in jail…
I zoomed in on the entire sentencing process, and that woman's lack of compassion or empathy is sickening. She is absolutely capable for harming someone severely in the future. I wish she could be sentenced to NEVER being alone with any child under the age of 18 ever again. And to the Momma, you're absolutely right, it's all our jobs to take care of each other's children. May you continue to find the strength to get through this. You are an amazing woman, and I wish you and your family nothing but the peace you all deserve.
Do the have this entire court case
As he went thru the probation terms I was like “no jail time?” But he saved the best for last
I have such GREAT RESPECT and adoration for Judge Simpson. I wish Court Junkie's could do field trips JUST to sit and listen to this HONORABLE man!!!❤❤❤
As far as i know you are allowed to sit in on a hearing as long as you behave, dress correctly, and there is room to sit in.
@zombieasparagus6021 Oh, I have contemplated several times doing a field trip for a few days from my home in NC to go do just that. I admire him immensely and what an honor it would be to have an opportunity to possibly get the chance to meet him. Certainly it wouldn't be a guarantee, but it's a nice notion to have it on my bucket list! 😊🥰
@kimberlysmith1282 if you do follow through, check the docket, contact the courthouse about whether or not you may sit in, business dresscode, and most importantly, show respect to the court and its staff. I do encourage sitting in on court cases it's one of the best ways to learn court procedures and how the process works.
@@zombieasparagus6021 Thank you! I was actually very interested to know what the best way to have the best chance! 😊
Reminder: Judge Simpson obstructed a DUI arrest of one of his clerks. He drove to the scene and tried to interfere with the officers. He does NOT believe in equal justice under the law; it's totally selective and biased.
This man gives me hope in humanity.
I have a 33 years old daughter with autism and learning disabilities and am in UK and can honestly say my daughter loved her teachers and her school and happily went on her school transport with her carers. I can’t imagine what that poor child went through my heart goes out to that little boy and his parents. I still care for my daughter and always will until I die.
I am glad your daughter had the experience she had!
That's how it should be, a child loving and trusting her caregivers and teachers. God bless your daughter and family. 🌹❤️
Judge Simpson is the nicest, most kind, patient judge I ever seen. So for him to become upset says a lot. God bless Judge Simpson. He's a rock star judge!
She didn’t do anything wrong,in her eyes. That must be how she treats her own children and or grandchildren. Charge her and put her in jail. She should never ever have a job around children ever again.
I've never seen a judge announce a sentence like that before and it was incredible to watch because you just know she thought that the 60 months of probation was in lieu of incarceration.
I've always loved Judge Cedrick Simpson. After watching how he dealt with the sentencing and his closing remarks, in my opinion...... He goes down as one of the BEST judges out there. We NEED more like him.
Thank you Judge Simpson!!!! She showed no mercy to that child and none should be shown to her! The fact that she was still working my with kids while being on trial blows my mind 🤦🏽♀️
Videos like this are why I make sure my adult brother with severe learning difficulties knows he must always always tell me if there are any problems with staff and/or service users at his daycentre. I am his big sister. I will help him live his best life.
I saw her attitude at the beginning of her "apology" and knew better than to watch it. After listening to the mother describe what happened and how she felt having to watch that video, I dont think I could've kept it together nearly as well as she did.
I cannot think of another case where I've seen Judge Simpson visibly having to 'pick his words' like that. You can see it in his face; he wanted to throw the book at this one...literally!
Gotta love this Judge, I do. Like quite a few, but this man is the best of the best in my mind. Thanks again Old Squishy, the channel and what you present to us is fabulous. Always looking out for a new video.
A year jail time is less then she deserves
And she’s asking for leniency, when you work with children especially vulnerable children,the moment you feel that anger boiling up in you, quit your job, or asked to be transferred, that’s how you stay out of jail!!!,,she’s very lucky little man is ok 😱😱🙏🏻’s to him& his family & TY sooo much ✌🏻💕
An apology with WHATEVER is not an apology from the heart. 😳
As I watched the Officers who were standing by in the courtroom I wondered if they already anticipated she would be remanded to custody. This was the only outcome that could possibly serve justice.
That “thank you for allowing me to continue in MY courtroom!” Was definitely heard from the rest of us.
Exactly!!
Judge Simpson is a wonderful Judge!! He is a true gentleman too!! He is ALWAYS fair!!!! He deserves to be called your honor!! I watch him on RUclips every day. He is a honorable man !!!
I need to rent my time out to parents like this. I would happily catch jail time to teach this lady some real manners. A mother need not dirty her hands when I will for her...
This should be a service, knowing your child was hurt and wanting to retaliate but knowing doing so will take you from your child is a helpless feeling.
Be the Mom enforcer!
I'm doing time for mine. No one else will get the satisfaction that I'll feel if I do it myself. My niece is nonverbal autistic and I told my sister that I'll handle it for her. I already have a background. I'll take the charges.
@@mekeiawatson as valiant a reason I can think of.
Prison and karma are the only 2 things that would stop me. The problem with this is I think the mom was clueless until the school showed her the video.
It was already too late to go vigilante.
But man, it would be tough to not do to her exactly what she did to my child.
I liked Judge Simpson before seeing this, and now I think he's amazing. If there had been a way to bar her from ever working with children again or to even in any sort of elder care situation (because she would abuse any helpless being), that would have been totally warranted.
Yo there, your honor, your compassion actually bestirred my dormant heart. Damn near made me cry. Not joking. Like to see more of this in our justice system, and I thank you.
judge is fantastic!
Lol love your elocution my dude! 😂 I was not expecting that vocab word today, and your use is superb!
@@OSGCourtWatchabsolutely!!!!!
I literally screamed when he said it... judge Simpson in his calm and respectful manner just dropped the hammer. It eas awesome
the fact that the school district thinks they will be able to hold a 7 year old criminally liable is DISGUSTING. shame on ann arbor school systems for supporting this OBVIOUS ABUSE.
What is the backstory to this case? It seems vaguely familiar, but I'd like the details if I can find them.
@@Nexus_of_SominusI can't find anything that shows the school board is trying to hold the kid criminally liable, but if you want to know more, just search for Rochanda Jefferson. She is the one that hit the child.
@@Nexus_of_Sominus she worked for/ in? the school. The child was having a meltdown screaming. So she strapped the child to a chair and becuase the kid couldnt fully communicate what happened it was all kept a secret from the family ( i think for like a month) word got out people got charge hence this vid
