A school bus attendant accused of abusing a special-needs student as he rode the bus has been sentenced to three years in prison.Lillian Jackson, 64, of Seabrook, pleaded guilty Thursday to seven counts of second-degree assault and battery in connection with a series of assaults in February 2015.
The mother of a non-verbal autistic boy found bruises, scratch marks and other injuries on her child — and the abuse was caught on camera.
Surveillance video from a school bus shows Jackson striking the Bluffton Elementary School student in the face with her hand, either with a closed fist or with the back of her hand.
