Criminal history emerges for driver in fatal Texas bus crash 

So many crimes, yet he was able to stay out of jail until he finally killed people.

Judges need to be held accountable.

How the hell is he driving a truck with a suspended license?

And they let him drive What kind of company is this !!

He should never see the light of day again. ‼️‼️

I see idiots in large trucks driving to fast and stupid every day.

That company is finish along with the driver

The owners of FJM Concrete LLC are likely nowhere to be found.

How the hell did he have a cdl!!!!

A good guess is his company didn't do random drug testing. And post accident testing is required so no way Hernandez could legally refuse to provide a sample. I drove trucks for 38 years and probably every year, sometimes every other year we got picked for random testing and I was no exception.

Should commercial vehicles have breath interlocks on them?

Company should be held liable as well, so many traffic violations. He should never have been behind the wheel of a rolling death machine.

Sounds like Austin and their local DA

Why would they hire him? In Tennessee you have to be licensed for that truck. Evidently in Texas you don't! Company should be held liable also!

Don't hire that attorney.

I was going 74 in a 60 a few weeks ago when a school bus passed me on the right, I never thought they could go that fast.

FJM CONCRETE doesn’t do background checks?

R.I.P baby angel fly high 😢🙏🕊

Sue Sue sue

I have a hard enough time performing office duties on 3 hours of sleep, let alone operating heavy machinery. Jerry was taking assists instead of fixing the core issues in his life, and his luck of getting by cheating this way ran out.

Unbelievable! 😡

I'm surprised the company hired him considering his record... or maybe, they didn't check at all, nor perform antidoping testing

What about suing the state of Texas for that old outdated bus with no seatbelts? SMDH

He looks quite pleased with himself in the photo.

sue the concrete company also they are negligent for hiring this criminal

Sounds like a perfect resume for a professional driver with 10 tonnes driving down the road...wait.

What is this man doing on the streets and how did he get a job for a trucking company with his history!!!! Clearly, they did not do a background check!

How tf was this guy driving a concrete pump truck ???? How??????

Did the cement company not do a background check?

A concrete mix driver with a criminal record? All concrete mix drivers have a criminal record.

Two questions, nothing to do with the perp, himself: The Company? How long has it existed? How long did it exist under a PREVIOUS NAME? If the property had to change names, worrying about the *Quality* of their employees are probably low on the company goals...

Insane…I bet 70% of drivers are in one way or another impaired! Sad…

Why actually he was allowed to be on the road?

What does his criminal history have to do with anything?

I'm not familiar with this company, but concrete companies are notorious for low wages for drivers. The concrete trucks are as heavy as a loaded tractor trailer and very top heavy. They need to be driven very skillfully. The concrete companies have to take whatever driver they can get because of the low compensation.

“Life” , right ? 😠

Why did he even have a license? 2006? Sad justice system.

What happened to the background check the cement company was supposed to do?

Sounds like a perfect case for the death penalty.

I truly don’t think the pot was the reason for going left of center but If I were to guess he was probably trying to do a line of coke when he went left of center

For one thing, the company is held responsible for the actions of their drivers when CDL's are required. Thats Federal rules. We have to take random drug screening and any infractions while driving , either off duty or on, are required to be reported to the company. The DOT does keep track! There is no way this guy could have passed any drug screen or continued to bluff his way to drive the rig if anyone in charge had been doing their required duty! My past employer used to be careless about their hiring of drivers till they had a few that the rest of us drivers reported our concerns about, that got in serious trouble that cost the company serious cash and lawsuits! They didn't let me do road test anymore when I refused to pass some of those idiots! I think it finally got through to them that if they were to continue to hire those losers that their DOT fleet permits and insurance eligibility would no longer be possible! They already had the ins carrier cancel them and finally got a high risk coverage for many times more than what they had. It's always about those drivers lack of caring or giving a Damn about anything but their own selfish attitude. Any one with a bit of sense can master driving skills, it's the attitude that destroys things!

how did he hold a CDL with all those previous offenses?? State Board huh?..who..DMV.

Low paying jobs attract this type of people

Did he have convictions? Would that add enhancements?

Knowing him personally is very weird to see him on the news. Dang, bro we told you to stop doing this stuff years ago.

99 to life no exception

Why would you care about OSHA? That driver and company are under the FMCSA. Do you even know what that is? That companies have recorded histories and grades? That they have a website to look it all up? Guess not...

Why the h#### was he driving a commercial truck???

If you have a CDL , it’s serious business

TWEEKER prision for life😠😠😠

so he had a suspended licence in 2006 but sounds like something happened late last year this his 4th case in 9 months no matter what his choices ended 2 lives

No drug test company. Come work with us and do your drugs and no good driving record needed

When the Supreme Court sees an injustice do they have to sit there and wait for someone to bring it to them for judgment? When all these willie nilly judges stop things at their beck and call.

The worst state in USA is Texas. No one follows the rules while driving.

And do more about drug use by truckers on the road.

This company drop the ball on background checks.

HHHHHHHHHernandez - is H silent

I have a background too, but I don't drive like that.

Marijuana "last night" had nothing to do with it, any more than a beer "last night" would. Stop misleading the public!

No way.... couldn't be....... If there is a felony on there somewhere , the person who hired him might be in the mixer.... Haaaaaa.....

repeat offender, that never got punished....well now that people died, there is still no reason to proscecute him, eh?! -.- tzz #murrica

Weak and easy on crime Texas laws at work.

Talk to me. I have important info on driving sleepy

This is why school buses need seat belts. That has always been a big debate with pro's and con's. You got a bus load of kids with no way to avoid being flung around but yet trapped if to young to unbuckle. This is sad. Prayers to the families.

Band assult vehicles

BLIND BUS DRIVER,,,,I WOULD NOT LET HIM DRIVE MY GERBLE TO SCHOOL

junki

Question is, is he in the u.s. legally

Go after the company for all it's got closer down

They literally suggested that there was a history that would support expected bad driving yet nothing in his record involved driving. If i were him id have a lawyer look at that really close .

Hasn't this man been through enough? 😢 poor guy

Arrest the people from the trucking company.Also they had a hand in it

There is no reason they cannot make thies busses safer.

How about make school busses safer an make the auto companies that make them fallow vehicle safety standards. So kids don't get killed in accidents involving school busses.

Normal day in Mexico

😂😂😂

Perfect american accent...perfect american accent.....E-r-l-rrr--lrrrrr-nandez

Any ATTORNEY WOULD TAKE THIS CASE!!! YALL BETTER CALL JIM ADLER OR BILL KNOX OUT OF DALLAS TX OR HIRE MARK MORALES INN TEXAS!!! Y'ALL GOT A GOOD CASE PLEASE HIRE A 5 STAR ATTORNEY CAUSE THIS CASE IS GONNA BE A BIG CASE AND Y'ALL NEED TO BE READY.WITH A GOOD ATTORNEY TO GET A GOOD JUDGMENT AT THE END!!!!

It’s common in Hispanic run businesses

YEAH THE REPUBLICANS STRIKE AGAIN!!!! THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF PEOPLE MATT GETZ SUPPORTS

Was he an inmigrent?

Bidenomics

What he did before plays no part in this !! You women attorney's suck at everything

The concrete company needs to be sued by the families of the deceased for not looking at the driver’s criminal record. They also need to face criminal charges for allowing him to drive.

I was going 74 in a 60 a few weeks ago when a school bus passed me on the right, I never thought they could go that fast.

Justice system is a joke, people like this don't need to drive.
