The Blaze (excerpts):  In Bedford County, Virginia, a school bus driver and an aide are being named in a shocking $20 million lawsuit that claims the two abused Timothy Kilpatrick, a young autistic boy, in 2009.  The women, Alice Davis Holland (the bus driver) and Mary Alice Evans (a special education bus aide) were convicted of assault and battery following the incident, but it seems new problems for the two former district employees are on the horizon.  Holland and Evans repeatedly physically abused the then 11-year-old boy.  Ryan Edwards, a spokesperson for Bedford County Schools, says that neither of the women have been employed by the district since September 2009, and WSLS.com has more about the legal penalty they faced for the allegations waged against them.  Interestingly, while the two were charged with misdemeanor assault, a prosecutor dropped a separate felony child abuse charge.  Now, the child's family is taking action of their own.  Allegations and convictions are one thing, but video footage is another.  Lawyers for the boy's father, Thomas Kilpatrick, were apparently able to secure a disturbing bus video through Freedom of Information Act requests.  In it, the driver, or her assistant, can be seen hitting the child with a fly swatter, while at other times chocking, kicking and beating him with their bare hands.  * This video has been downloaded to the News Videos page on this website, dated 1/7/12.  

Commentary:  Here we are again.  Not just 13-17 year-old children being molested by their teachers; a bus driver and her aide beating a disabled child!  If you can think rationally and if you are not an evil person yourself, you can clearly see that we are living in very disturbing times, as the Word of God foretold us.  2 Timothy 3:1 says, "Know this, that in the last days perilous times will come."  If you would like information on how you can home educate your child and receive legal protection for a nominal yearly fee to do so without possible government harassment, please visit the Home Education page of this website.  God bless you.
