Former MTA bus driver Karen Murphy left district court in northwest Baltimore on Thursday after her first court appearance to answer to multiple charges of assault and conspiracy. Court documents said she told a group of juveniles to beat up a family of three that was riding on her bus.
"She actually let these children get off of this bus and beat me and my family for at least three minutes, then let them get back on, get weapons, get back off and back on again, and then took off with every one of them that did it," victim Kristina Gibson told 11 News reporter Lowell Melser.
Gibson said the incident happened on June 6, when she and her boyfriend, Christopher Fisher, were picking up their son, 9-year-old Logan, from school and were riding the No. 22 bus to Hampden from Greenmount Avenue.
According to charging documents, police were able to review video from the bus, which included audio of the exchange. The video showed the bus beginning to get crowded and that Murphy told everyone to move to the back of the bus.
According to the video, Fisher told Murphy that the bus was too crowded to do so, and the two exchanged words, with Murphy saying, "If you would have gotten your (expletive) off you wouldn't be having these problems. You better watch the way you're talking to me. … Come up here and I'll show you what I'll do. You better get your ass way back there in the back."

Can’t he just claim “self-defense” since we kept them in chains for so long or some such?
A White male/black female street argument never ends well for whitey in the hood. This guy is lucky to be alive.
Let me take a wild guess here: Amish yet again?
And I guess that the reason this is not a “hate crime” is because it involves black perps and white victims.
A former Baltimore city bus driver, Karen Murphy, appeared in court last week to face charges of assault and conspiracy for allegedly arranging for what has been described as a mob of black high school students, to attack a white family over a verbal altercation between herself and two passengers.
Black Irish.
Was he on time?
Whatever happened to the “celebrate diversity” and “diversity is our strength” slogans?
Shouldn’t she be charged with lynching? She organized this mass attack. In fact all of those involved should be charged with a hate crime on top of it.
This one of the reasons blue states like Maryland resist CCW - too many of their most-reliable voting block would get capped during the commission of violent crimes.
Maryland "Freak State" PING!
“diversity” just means “fewer white people, less Western Culture”.
It means nothing else.
Will NBC breathlessly arrive to cover this story?
Will the effing FBI interview the Bus Drivers friends and family to see if she ever uttered an anti-white word?
Will Holder be outraged and send in the troops? Will Obama step up to the race plate ready for bear?
I hear crickets off in the distance...
I’m surprised at the bus driver being charged, instead of the victims being charged with a hate crime.
This is diversity comparing peaceful with violent. Need to have some violence in the mix, celebrate diversity!
She is one evil woman.
I take it the family didn’t get a call from Obama or a consolation visit from Eric Holder.
