Prosecutor: Case against parents of Michigan school shooter 'stronger' than ever

DETROIT — Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald claims that her involuntary manslaughter case against the parents of the teen who went on a deadly shooting rampage at Oxford High School in November 2021 is stronger than ever.

McDonald's argument was filed Friday in response to the sixth request for a lower bond filed by defense attorneys on behalf of James and Jennifer Crumbley in a bid to get released from jail while waiting to stand trial on the four counts of involuntary manslaughter tied to the shooting deaths of the four students at Oxford High. The bond is currently $500,000 for each defendant, an amount that their attorneys described as "excessive and unwarranted."

"The case against the Defendants is stronger now (than) it was at the time of any prior bond review," McDonald wrote in a filing in response to the request for a bond review.
