Oxford shooter's fate hangs in balance as hearing determines life sentence eligibility

Testimony in the sentencing hearing for Ethan Crumbley, the teenager who fatally shot four students at Oxford High School in Michigan, revealed that he had expressed a desire to "shoot up the school" and "be remembered through all of history" in journal entries prior to the attack. The prosecution argued for a sentence of life without parole, highlighting the calculated nature of the shooting and Crumbley's desire to witness the suffering he caused. The defense argued that Crumbley, who pleaded guilty to 24 felonies, including terrorism causing death and first-degree murder, should not be sentenced to life without parole, citing his age and the possibility of rehabilitation.
