A jury has found bus operator Kenroy Graham guilty of indecently assaulting a 12-year-old passenger after she remained on his bus to search for lost headphones.
The April 1, 2022 incident began after the girl boarded his bus at the West Bus Station heading to Coolidge. When she got off and realized her headphones were missing, Graham told her she could stay on while he dropped off other passengers.
Prosecutors said that once the bus was empty, Graham diverted from his route, stopped along a side road, questioned the child about her age and where she lived, rubbed her upper thigh and made sexual advances.
The girl reported the incident to her aunt immediately and police were contacted the same day.
