"Oxford Shooter's Father's Counselor Meeting Remarks Before School Shooting"

On the third day of James Crumbley's involuntary manslaughter trial, Oxford High School counselor Shawn Hopkins testified about a meeting he had with the shooter and his parents on the day of the shooting. Hopkins revealed that James Crumbley, the shooter's father, was present at the meeting and encouraged his son to talk to his counselor and use his journal, despite knowing about the violent content in the journal. The parents declined to take the shooter home for mental health help, and the shooter later carried out the shooting at the school. James Crumbley faces four counts of involuntary manslaughter in connection with the four students murdered, while his son has been sentenced to life in prison without parole.
