She admited to using an ipod on the bus to the officers who responded to the crash. As well, the "kids" (16 and 18) who testified yesterday said they saw her with earphones in immediately prior to the crash.
I believe she (the driver) was institutionalized for several weeks following the crash due to suicidal thoughts.
Judging by the path this case is taking, the worst I can see is Dangerous / Careless driving causing death... It will likely have some light jail time and some other stipulations, but I think this woman has already been sentenced to a lifetime of regret and depression (of her own doing, of course)
