School Bus Driver Who Raped 14-Year-Old Girl Gets No Prison Time

A New York man was sentenced to 10 years probation but no prison time after pleading guilty to raping a 14-year-old girl he met while driving a school bus. The judge in the case defended his controversial ruling by pointing out that Piche had only raped one girl, rather than multiple.

Shane Piche reportedly met the victim through his job as a school bus driver in Watertown City School District in upstate New York last year. Piche, who is either 25 or 26 years old according to conflictingreports, raped the 14-year-old student at his home in June 2018 and was later arrested in September.

Piche was initially charged with second-degree rape, first-degree unlawfully dealing with a child and endangering the welfare of a child by providing alcohol to the victim before the assault, according to Watertown Daily Times. The victim’s mother told local news station WWNY in February that Piche “bought her daughter gifts and invited her and other minors to his home where he gave them alcohol.”

Piche, who is no longer employed by the Watertown City school district, pled guilty to the lesser charge of third-degree rape in February. He was expected to be designated a Level 2 sex offender, which according to the state means there is a “medium risk of re-offense.” As a Level 2 offender, Piche’s address would have been available to the public.

Last week, Piche was sentenced to 10 years probation and designated a Level 1 sex offender by Judge James P. McClusky. Level 1 sex offenders are the lowest risk designation on the registry, and their addresses are not available to the public.

If I’m the father of this girl, I’m spending the rest of my life in prison for first-degree murder.

Why? I mean... you only murdered one guy, not multiple...

Right? Should be able to plea down to some misdemeanor assault or disturbing the peace.

I'm not sure what I find more disturbing.....That you thought this through or that I like the idea!

If you were the father of this little girl, she likely would not have been raped. Girls from broken homes are more vulnerable and our sick society.

I was watching the show Narcos on Netflix. The one cartel would wrap the body in barbed wire and dump it into the river. As the body bloated, the wire would cut it up into small pieces. Fish food. Although having piranhas down there probably helps.

Oh, how the imagination runs wild with possible vigilante justice scenarios.

I "heard" of a man whose daughter who was sexually harassed by a man at the restaurant she worked at. Grabbing body parts, etc. Daughter was trying to make it on her own in a big city, but was really shaken by facing this every day.

Father got a good description and schedule. Jumped in a car with a baseball bat, drove to the city and parked in time for night shift.

When the guy came bopping into work, this father got out of the car, with bat. Proceeded to get both knees, head, body. Strong guy, btw.

Got in car and drove back home. Never a single word spoken.

Weeks later, he asked his daughter how work was going. Her reply was that the guy who had been grabbing her was gone for a while and when he came back, he minds his own business.

Good old days...

Sorry, but I’m going to jail anyway, might as well add Judge James P. McClusky to the list. He is at a minimum an accomplice - and just as guilty.

How idiots like this ever become judges is one of the shames of our society.

"This is New York. They are going to start “retiring” prisoners who reach 55 years of age and have served at least 15 years, even if their sentence is life without possibility of parole."

Are you serious? Is this for real? Who came up with this? when?

Do all the crimes you want before age forty and you'll be out in 15 years no matter what? What a glorious deal for all criminals!

Second degree rape is what he was originally charged with.

Second degree rape in New York is when a person over the age of 18 ingages in sexual intercourse with a person less than 15.

Other places call this statutory rape.

About 11 percent of 14 year olds have had sex.

Oops. I was wrong. 11 percent of teens have engaged in sex by the time they are 14. By the time they are 15, the number bumps up to 20 percent. Here is the link to the article with the numbers.
