Parents of Michigan mass shooter sentenced to prison


Jennifer and James Crumbley, the parents of Ethan Crumbley who carried out a mass shooting at Oxford High School in Michigan, were sentenced to 10 to 15 years in prison for involuntary manslaughter. Family members of the victims spoke emotionally in court, expressing their devastation and anger towards the Crumbleys for failing to prevent the tragedy. The judge also addressed the parents, highlighting their role in providing their son with access to weapons and ammunition. The Crumbleys defended themselves, claiming they were good parents and couldn’t have foreseen Ethan’s actions. Prosecutors argued that the parents ignored warning signs about their son’s mental health and could have prevented the shooting by securing the gun and addressing his struggles. The Crumbleys attempted to avoid jail time through requests for house arrest and time served, but prosecutors rejected these requests, emphasizing the severity of the tragedy and the lack of remorse shown by the parents. The sentencing marks a significant moment in holding parents accountable for their children’s actions, with legal experts suggesting that this case may influence future decisions regarding parents’ culpability when their children cause harm with firearms.
