Bus firm owner gets five years probation after fatal 2005 explosion

Federal Judge Ricardo Hinojosa sentenced James Maples owner of Global Limo to six months in a halfway house and six months of home confinement plus electronic monitoring for bus fleet management violations tied to the 2005 hurricane evacuation disaster that killed 23. Maples was fined 10 000 and his dismantled company 106 000 with five years probation. The judge noted the case focused on management practices not the explosion itself and criticized prosecutors for relying on a charge not in the indictment. He barred Maples from working in the bus business.

Leaders Dewhurst Craddick and Perry seek options to go beyond the limit.
