Michigan Supreme Court has cleared the way for the parents of a teenager who killed four fellow pupils at school to face trial on involuntary manslaughter charges.
The state appeals court in March said the couple could face trial and the Supreme Court said it would let that decision stand.Crumbley killed Madisyn Baldwin, Tate Myre, Hana St Juliana and Justin Shilling at Oxford High, about 40 miles north of Detroit, in November 2021. Six students and a teacher were also wounded.
Lawyers for the parents insist the school shooting was not foreseeable. They acknowledge that bad decisions were made but not ones that should rise to charges of involuntary manslaughter. The 17-year-old, who was 15 at the time of the shooting, will be sentenced on December 8. The judge will have an option of giving him a prison term that would make him eligible for parole in the decades ahead.
