The Michigan Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that a trial of Oxford High School shooter Ethan Crumbley’s parents, who are facing involuntary manslaughter charges, can go forward.
The parents of Oxford High School shooter Ethan Crumbley can face trial on involuntary manslaughter charges, aJames and Jennifer Crumbley are facing four involuntary manslaughter charges each following the November 2021 attack outside Detroit, which left four students dead and another seven injured.
The appeals court, in a 3-0 opinion, said Thursday that the murders would not have happened if Crumbley’s parents hadn't purchased a gun for him or if they had taken him home from Oxford High School on the day of the shooting, when staff became alarmed about his extreme drawings. James and Jennifer Crumbley were charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter each in connection to the November 2021 shooting at Oxford High School.
"The morning of the shooting, EC drew a picture of a body that appeared to have two bullet holes in the torso, apparently with blood streaming out of them, which was near another drawing of a handgun that resembled the gun his parents ... had very recently gifted to him," Riordan said Thursday, according to The Associated Press.
