she rearranged her work schedule ... because she doesn't want ja'kira alone at the bus stop. the red house there, there's a registered sex offender in the upper unit.. on the day contact 6 waited with ja'kira ... ok another bus driver hello. the bus arrived 14 minutes late. have a great day! jarika's mom says her bus got school ... at 8-56. eleven minutes late. contact 6 reached out to lakeside bus company ... which thanked us for bringing it says in an email ...
