UPDATE: The Black Woman who Shoved a Disabled Old White Man Off a Bus and Killed Him gets Charge Reduced to Abuse

A woman who pushed a 74-year-old man off a Las Vegas bus in March 2019, causing his death, has pleaded guilty to an abuse charge.

Cadesha Bishop, 28, was initially charged with murder and accused of pushing Serge Fournier off a parked bus near Fremont and 13th streets. Fournier landed on his head about 8 feet from the bus doorway, and died about a month later, according to Bishop’s arrest report.

At a hearing on Dec. 27 before District Judge Tierra Jones, court records show, Bishop pleaded guilty to abuse of an older or vulnerable person resulting in death. She is set to be sentenced on Feb. 18.

Bishop’s defense attorney, Alex Spelman, declined to comment on Friday.

Witnesses told detectives that Bishop was yelling profanities on the Regional Transportation Commission bus on March 21, 2019. As Fournier was passing Bishop in the aisle, he told her “to be nice to the passengers,” according to her arrest report.
