Currently ongoing in Michigan, the father of the Oxford High School shooter is facing trial for his son's actions. James Crumbly is charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter, one for each student his son, Ethan, tragically killed in 2021. Recently, James' wife was found guilty in connection to the same incident.
The trial has begun with initial testimonies from both sides. The prosecution is emphasizing foreseeability, arguing that James had the knowledge and opportunity to prevent the tragedy. They claim that had James taken action, the students would still be alive today. The defense, on the other hand, asserts that James was unaware of his son's intentions and had no knowledge of the gun's whereabouts.
