Bus Driver Catches Pedophile Despite Warning From Company

While this is a news story about a 73-year-old man preying on a poor 14-year-old mentally ill girl on a bus, this is also a story about a brave bus driver who went all his way to nap the pedophile despite the risk of losing his job.

This horrible 73 year old man, Atsushi Yamagami accompanied students on the bus which picked up and dropped off the special-needs students. Police arrested him for kissing the girl and rubbing her breasts over a period of about 20 minutes on the morning of March 4, as the bus headed to the school, carrying about 20 students at the time.

The incident came to light after his actions were recorded by a video camera installed by the bus driver, who handed the tape to police at Ikegami police station. The 47-year-old male bus driver first noticed Yamagami touching the student in May last year.

But when he spoke to the management of the company that operated the bus – Toto Kanko Bus - he was asked how he felt about not working for them anymore.

The driver then abandoned discussion with management and installed the camera without their knowledge.

Yamagami has admitted to the allegation and told police:

I did it because I thought she wouldn’t tell anyone about it. She’s cute, her body’s big and she was easy to take care of…I liked her.

I’m really dissapointed by the actions of the bus company and the pedophile. These are students with special needs and can’t protect themselves and yet the bus company didn’t want to step in and take any action. The manager and the old men is probably in cahoots or something. >_<

Kudos to the brave bus driver. But too bad cause I forsee he’s gonna lose his job soon.
