A Raleigh school bus driver has been charged with the intentional abuse that resulted in a significant injury to a child in her care. Forty-two-year-old Tiffian Kimberly Truesdale of Zebulon is facing charges for intentionally fracturing the left femur of a three-year-old, as the child was being transported from Durant Road Elementary School to a daycare facility, as perABC11.
The incident reportedly occurred on September 24, and Raleigh Police Department served Truesdale with a warrant on charges of intentional child abuse causing serious physical injury,TheNews&Observerreports. Details on how the injury was inflicted have not been disclosed by investigators, the nature of the charges imply a deliberate act rather than an accident.
Truesdale was taken into custody on Monday, and according to court records obtained byCBS 17, has been issued a $75,000 secured bond. She is scheduled to appear in Wake County Court on Tuesday, where the incident will be subjected to legal scrutiny.
While the arrest warrant claims Truesdale was “providing care for the child” when the child’s femur was fractured, it is unclear if she was employed directly by Wake County Public Schools at the time of the incident. The case has drawn attention due to the severity of the charge, opening a discussion on the responsibilities and conduct of those entrusted with the care of children during transport to educational facilities, theCBS 17adds to the narrative.
The community awaits further development as the legal process unfolds and more information emerges surrounding the circumstances of this distressing event. More information may be released following Truesdale’s court appearance.
