“I’m going to have to swear you to secretcy on this. not a word to anyone when we do. sorry but it needs to be that way.” Sanchez messaged.

The recipient responded: “My lips are sealed. Not a word will be spoken. You have my word on it.”

In the crash, Sanchez failed to stop at a red signal — perhaps because he had been distracted by text messages — and hit head-on a Union Pacific freight train.

Along with Sanchez, 24 passengers were killed and 135 injured.

Three days before the crash, officials with Connex Railroad, which supplies Metrolink crews, called Sanchez on the carpet for running a train four minutes late, according to testimony.

Although supervisors had warned Sanchez about improper cellphone use on two previous occasions, the topic did not come up during the “counseling” session, testimony shows.

Later that evening, officials said, Sanchez allowed another ride-along.

Investigators also found that the conductor on the Union Pacific freight train had used his cellphone 41 times while on duty and sent a text message a few minutes before the crash, which he survived along with the rest of that train’s crew. The freight conductor also tested positive for marijuana, records and testimony show.

Notice "shill" does not post his trigger rant on RYPN and trolls on AP. His name is Ross, not "russ".
