"Legal Precedent Set as Crumbley Parents Found Guilty in Michigan School Shooting Case"

The jury foreman in the James Crumbley trial revealed that the key issue for him in convicting the father of the Oxford school shooter for involuntary manslaughter was how the gun was stored, emphasizing the importance of securing firearms. He also mentioned the impact of the father's reluctance to get his son help for mental health struggles and the disturbing journal entries and drawings by the shooter. The foreman reflected on the emotional toll of the trial and expressed hope that the verdict would send a message about parental responsibility in gun storage. James Crumbley faces up to 15 years in prison, while his wife, Jennifer Crumbley, also convicted of involuntary manslaughter, will be sentenced on the same day.
