DETROIT — An Oakland County Circuit Court judge granted a request Wednesday on behalf of parents suing the Oxford Community Schools to add new allegations that an armed security guard at the high school could have prevented at least one student's death during the November mass shooting.
Judge Rae Lee Chabot approved Detroit attorney Ven Johnson's fourth amended complaint to the parents' lawsuit. Johnson alleged the security guard was working inside the high school when the shooting happened around 12:51 p.m. Nov. 30 and overlooked the shooter who was in the bathroom with two students.
"What's shocking and repulsive is an armed security guard with her handgun pulled looking at a bathroom where there's three people, one who is a fully armed Ethan Crumbley ... and she claims she didn't see anything," Johnson told the judge.
