DETROIT — A three-judge panel of the Michigan Court of Appeals has ruled there was enough evidence to send the involuntary manslaughter charges against the parents of the Oxford High School shooter to trial.
The unanimous ruling released Thursday means the four charges each against James and Jennifer Crumbley will proceed in Oakland County Circuit Court.
Judges Christopher Murray, Michael Riordan and Christopher Yates heard oral arguments earlier this month after the Crumbleys' attorneys appealed the case to both the Court of Appeals and the Michigan Supreme Court, arguing there was not enough evidence to send the case to trial.
