Michigan mother convicted in mass shooting case
Jennifer Crumbly, a Michigan mother, has been found guilty of four counts of involuntary manslaughter for allowing her troubled son access to a gun, despite warning signs of his declining mental health. This is the first time a parent has been convicted in a mass school shooting case. Her husband, James Crumbly, is scheduled to stand trial on similar charges next month. The prosecution argued that Jennifer had neglected her son's well-being, and her extramarital affair distracted her from monitoring his behavior. The defense claimed that James was responsible for storing the weapon and that the school did not fully inform them of their son's issues. Jennifer faces up to 60 years in prison and will be sentenced in April.
