BREAKING UPDATE: Parents of Michigan Shooter Flee After Being Charged with Involuntary Manslaughter
15-year-old sophomore Ethan Crumbley used a semi-automatic hand gun to kill four students and wound seven others at a Michigan school on Tuesday, including a teacher, according to authorities.
Prosecutors this week announced 15-year-old Crumbley will be tried as an adult and was charged with terrorism and murder.
On Friday, Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald charged Crumbley’s parents with 4 counts of involuntary manslaughter.
“Gun ownership is a right, and with that right comes great responsibility,” McDonald said.
The mother allegedly wrote in a text to Crumbley after reports of the shooting: “lol I’m not mad at you, you have to learn not to get caught”
