A northern Indiana woman accused of striking and killing three children with a pickup truck as they crossed a highway to board a school bus entered a preliminary not guilty plea Thursday.
Alyssa Shepherd, 24, appeared before a Fulton County judge on three counts of reckless homicide. The Rochester, Indiana, woman also faces one misdemeanor count of passing a school bus when an arm signal device is extended, causing bodily injury.
Shepherd was driving a pickup truck before dawn Oct. 30 when she struck four children who were crossing a two-lane road to board a Tippecanoe Valley School Corp. bus near Rochester, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) north of Indianapolis.
Six-year-old twin brothers Xzavier and Mason Ingle, and their 9-year-old sister, Alivia Stahl, were killed. An 11-year-old boy who was severely injured in the crash remains hospitalized in Fort Wayne.

https://www.wthr.com/article/trial-s...us-stop-deathsFulton County Prosecutor Mike Marrs told NewsCenter 16 this Friday, a fifth charge of criminal recklessness will be filed against Alyssa Shepherd for hitting Maverik Lowe, the surviving victim of the four children Shepherd allegedly ran into at their bus stop on Oct. 30.
The Fulton County prosecutor is meeting with the Indiana State Police Peru Post on Feb. 13 to gather crash scene reconstruction information, since the Peru Post has the bus the children were trying to board when Shepherd drove into them.
Another pretrial conference for Shepherd will take place April 18. The Fulton County prosecutor expects either to reach a plea deal with Shepherd’s lawyers or to set a possible trial date for this summer.
Fulton County Prosecutor Michael Marrs tells WSBT-TV the Oct. 5 trial date for Alyssa Shepherd of Rochester was set during a closed pretrial hearing.
Shepherd has pleaded not guilty to three counts of reckless homicide, criminal recklessness and a misdemeanor count of passing a school bus when an arm signal device is extended
So she was convicted and now her sentence has been reduced because she did a bible course.

Sentence reductions could have woman convicted in fatal bus stop crash home for Christmas
Alyssa Shepherd was sentenced to 10 years last September for the deaths of 9-year-old Alivia Stahl and 6-year-old twins Mason and Xzavier Ingle in the crash the morning of Oct. 30, 2018 in Fulton County. The judge sentenced Shepherd to serve four years in the Department of Correction, plus three years of home detention and the remaining three years on probation.
Her earliest release date from prison had been Sept. 22, 2022, but prosecutors said Thursday that date was moved up to March 2022 after Shepherd completed a bible study course in prison that would cut time from her sentence.
“We were notified about ten days ago that she had received a Department of Corrections time-cut for taking a class called ‘Plus Faith 2.0: Criminal Lifestyle, Attitudes & Behavior,'" Fulton County Prosecutor Mike Marrs told WNDU.
Marrs said it's possible Shepherd's sentence will be reduced even further through a Community Transition Program. That program, which is recommended by probation officers, could take another 60-90 days off the sentence. That would potentially put Shepherd home in time for Christmas.
Fucksake. At least make her do something that helps people
OMFG. The original sentence wasn't long enough to begin with

Talk about a ROYAL SLAP IN THE FACE to those children's parents. WTAF.

Judge denies extended early release for woman who killed kids at bus stop
The woman convicted of hitting and killing three children and severely injuring a fourth at an Indiana bus stop will get out of prison six months early, but she had the opportunity to get out even earlier -- before Christmas this year -- and the judge shot down that chance.
The grandfather of the three children killed by Alyssa Shepherd is speaking out after she was denied the 3-month earlier release.
When Shepherd was sentenced to the department of corrections almost two years ago, she would’ve been eligible for release in September 2022. But after taking a class in jail paired with a community transition period, she could’ve gotten out before Christmas this year.
Ninety additional days off a 4-year sentence might not seem like a lot, but after Shepherd was found guilty of killing Michael Schwab's three grandchildren — Alicia, Mason and Xzavier — he says every day she's behind bars counts.
“She’s going to get out and have a lot more Christmases with her kids. The Ingles are not. At least not here on earth,” said prosecutor Michael Marrs.
The documents say Shepard was denied the 90-day community transition program because her sentencing already includes a transition period — with home detention, electronic monitoring and probation once she gets out of prison.
Marrs says he's glad the judge made the decision he did.
“Her behavior and her actions on that day in October of 2018 were extremely reckless. She took three lives and that’s three little kids that should still be here.”
I would hate to live with this on my conscience for the rest of my life.
You are talking to a woman who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe.

I can see a faith-based course being more useful (I use this word in a loose sense) if you?re dealing with, for instance, someone who you want to teach that, Jesus cares for every snowflake out there. I?m trying to be open-minded. Actually tried to look up what this course was, but apparently every reference was to this situation, so I didn?t get anywhere.
Courses are usually related to the crime. So for this one, how about, I dunno, a fucking driver?s ed?
