ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. — The parents of the accused Oxford High School shooter were ordered Thursday to stand trial for involuntary manslaughter in connection with the deadly Nov. 30 rampage.
Judge Julie Nicholson of 52-3 District Court made the ruling regarding James and Jennifer Crumbley following a two-day preliminary examination with more than a half-dozen witnesses in Rochester Hills District Court. The couple's 15-year-old son, Ethan Crumbley, is accused of carrying out the shooting that killed four and injured six other students and a teacher.
“There was extensive testimony that Ethan Crumbley was a troubled young man,” Nicholson said in making the ruling. “And they purchased him a gun, which he did use.”
