John Petrone is a good man and is innocent of the allegations being made. Bus drivers today are constantly harassed by unruly children with poor upbringings. In these cases isles get blocked, items are thrown at the driver and they are not permitted under any circumstances to resolve the matters on their own. If a child was touched, it was only to allow the driver to do his job and to ensure the safety of the children. I have known John for many years and he is an upstanding citizen with many grandchildren of his own, who undoubtedly love him dearly.

Please remember the bus driver recently that was verbally harassed, bordering on verbal assault; that raised over $650K in donations from decent citizens, just to make her happy. she deserves every penny.

I have children of my own and trust them with John always. He is protective, loving, and cares for all people in general. This man needs to be exonerated and I hope that when the evidence is presented, that this case gets thrown out and his good name redeemed.

As a parent, I too would want to investigate such allegations made by a child, but people we must remember we are talking about children with wild imaginations that will say things they they think they need to, that we want to hear, or whatever will keep them from getting in trouble. Point is, let's not give too much credibility to allegations from children.

Imagine this: crowded bus, narrow walkway, how can you not bump into someone?

Very well said and i could not agree with you more.

VERY WELL SAID. THIS COULD HAPPEN TO ANY BUS DRIVER.JOHN IS A VERY CARING DRIVER NOT ONLY FOR HIS CHILDREN HE DRIVERS FOR BUT HIS JOB.IT OFTEN COMES DOWN TO WORD ANGAIST WORD. WHY IS IT PERMITTED FOR A TEACHER TO BE ABLE TO HIGH FIVE A CHILD AND NOT A BUS DRIVER?....
