In a Morris County suit, Bishop v. Comperchio, a Sparta woman will receive $1.25 million as compensation for physical and emotional injuries she sustained when she was sexually molested by a school bus driver.

Plaintiff Kristen Bishop, now 21, of Sparta, agreed to the settlement with the defendants—Mount Arlington Board of Education, Byrum Bus Lines Inc., and its driver, Edward Comperchio—on Sept.  4, said her lead attorney, Gregg Stone.
