our gun culture makes this kids behavior seem kind of acceptable in those circles pre-shooting, but in any other country he'd have been in a psych facility
Better question is they were hinting for past two days they were likely going to charge the parents. Why were they not under surveillance? Fucking idiots.
This is mind-blowing. Proof that unqualified people without the skills or intelligence to handle important positions somehow fake it till they make it in every industry. There’s a least three serious red flags that should’ve had this kid removed and evaluated. Negligence is a crime in other forms. No different here. School officials should face charges and/or severe disciplinary action. And the parents of every kid in that school has a legit claim to sue the district.
is it illegal to have a cop watching a house with suspects in it? it's bizarre that we see these people go missing (plus the missing hiker's boyfriend) when we know charges are coming in 24-48 hours
every adult involved in that process with even the tiniest shred of dignity would chew on a barrel right now. the parents failed the kid, the teachers failed the kid, the school counselor failed the kid, the administration at the school failed the kid, the district administration that sets rules and policies failed the kid. I'd guess there's no fewer than 10-15 people who has the blood of those four children on their hands. absolutely fucking vile.
Our mayor just said we need to start a business-focused neighborhood watch of sorts to calm our crime wave. Jesus Christ what a bad idea.
Superintendent Says 'No Discipline Was Warranted' For Michigan Shooter By Jason Hall December 3, 2021 Photo: Oakland County Sheriff's Office The teenager accused in the shooting deaths of four students at a Michigan high school earlier this week was reportedly called to the office prior to the incident, but "no discipline was warranted," the school superintendent told the Associated Press on Thursday (December 2). “I want you to know that there’s been a lot of talk about the student who was apprehended, that he was called up to the office and all that kind of stuff. No discipline was warranted,” said Oxford Schools Superintendent Tim Throne. “There are no discipline records at the high school. Yes this student did have contact with our front office, and, yes, his parents were on campus Nov. 30." Ethan Crumbley, 15, was charged as an adult for two dozen crimes, which include murder, attempted murder and terrorism, in relation to the shooting incident at Oxford High School on Tuesday (November 30). Throne said he couldn't release additional information as of Thursday, but did ask the sheriff's office to publicly release footage from the school captured on the day of the shooting. “... I want you to be as proud of your sons and daughters as I am,” Throne said. On Thursday, a prosecutor once again criticized Crumbley's parents' actions as being "far beyond negligence" in relation to the incident and said a charging decision was expected to come by Friday (December 3). “The parents were the only individuals in the position to know the access to weapons,” Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald said via the AP, adding that the weapon used in the shooting “seems to have been just freely available to that individual.” Four students were killed and seven others injured -- including three hospitalized in stable condition -- after Crumbley used a semi-automatic gun purchased legally by his father during the shooting earlier this week. Experts told the AP parents are rarely charged in school shootings involving their children, even with incidents in which minors easily obtain weapons at a parent or relative's house prior to the shooting. Michigan does not have a law requiring gun owners to keep their weapons locked away from children.
That jumped out to me too You'd think at some point insurance companies would charge more on their home policies
Is it due to an argument in case of home invasion the child needing to access a gun? I just don't see why that's not an easy thing to get passed.
Where the hell were they trying to get with $4000? Don't even need to set up a perimeter. Just draw a big radius on the map for how far 3 tanks of gas will get them and stake out all the Quality Inns in those areas
DeSantis just announced that the Crumbleys will be his co-lieutenant governors and gave them signing bonuses.
What a bunch of Dumbasses. I hope they are held responsible and that thier son testifies against them about how shitty parents they have been. Not sure why they ran though. Feel like these charges nowadays and in Michigan they would beat. Hiding doesn't help them at all. Again I hope they are held responsible and that this sets a precidnet that parents have a responsibility when it comes to firearms and their children access to them.
The same people that love to scream, "BUT MY RIGHTS!!!!," never want to discuss their responsibilities.
$4k in cash and hiding out in Detroit. No question they were trying to get fake IDs and flee to Canada - while their kid sat in a jail cell.
with a court appointed attorney, while they hired their own attorney for themselves as soon as they were arrested. I doubt they were trying to flee to Canada. They’re not bright.
