Appeal Begins in Millas School Bus Tragedy Case

Nadine Oliveira, the bus driver, seeks to overturn her conviction for the 2017 collision that killed six students, maintaining that the railway barriers were open.

The appeal trial for Nadine Oliveira, the driver involved in the 2017 Millas school bus accident, has commenced in Aix-en-Provence.
Oliveira was previously sentenced to five years in prison, with four suspended, for involuntary manslaughter and injuries.
The defense argues that the railway barriers were open at the time of the accident, challenging the initial conviction.
Families of the victims express fatigue and frustration over the appeal, questioning its necessity given the lack of new evidence.
The court proceedings are expected to last until October 25, with live broadcasts available for those unable to attend in person.
