A Long Island school bus driver admitted he regularly had disgusting rendezvouses with a pre-teen girl inside of an Uber he drove at night — and now he’s expected to spend over a decade in prison.
The now-former Bay Shore School District driver Miguel Enrique Diaz, 49, pleaded guilty Tuesday to charges that he sexually assaulted a 12-year-old multiple times inside his Uber between December 2022 and October 2023, according to Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney’s office.
Diaz’s sick double life unraveled in March 2024, when the victim finally came forward and told her mother about the year’s long abuse. The mom then contacted local cops, prosecutors said.
“Today’s conviction represents a measure of justice for the young victim who showed tremendous courage in coming forward,” Tierney said in a statement.
“Our office remains committed to protecting children and holding predators accountable, regardless of their position in the community.”
He was then arrested in 2024 after a short investigation by the Suffolk County Police Department’s Special Victims Section.
The admitted perv is due back in court April 24 and faces up to 16 years in prison followed by 15 years of post-release supervision. He will be required to register as a sex offender.
