PONTIAC, Mich. – Some jail records for accused Oxford High shooter Ethan Crumbley should remain private and not be part of the public court file or available to the news media, attorneys for the boy argued this week.
Crumbley, 15, is being held in isolation in the Oakland Count Jail without bond pending a placement hearing scheduled for Feb. 22 in which his attorneys are expected to argue he should be placed in the county's juvenile facility, Children's Village, rather than the jail.
The filing this week by defense attorneys Paulette Loftin and Amy Hopp was at the invitation of Judge Kwame Rowe, who will oversee Crumbley’s placement hearing and eventual trial.
