Doesn't appear to be.
FULTON COUNTY, Ind. (WOWO): In Fulton County Court Wednesday afternoon, Alyssa Shepherd was sentenced to 4 years in prison, 3 years of electronic monitoring, and at least 3 years of probation for the bus stop crash that killed three children and injured of a fourth.
In October, Shepherd was found guilty of three counts of reckless homicide, one count of criminal recklessness, and one count of driving around a school bus with an extended stop arm.
She claimed during her trial that she saw the lights prior to the October 2018 crash but didn’t realize it was a school bus.
Usually they will say so. It says she was found guilty, not pleaded guilty. That infers there was a trial.
Here I found information stating it was sent to a jury.
