James Crumbley convicted of involuntary manslaughter over son's school shooting

A jury has convicted James Crumbley of involuntary manslaughter over his role in his son's 2021 school shooting at Oxford High School in Michigan.

He was charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Prosecutors argued that James Crumbley could have prevented the shooting by securing the gun used in the attack and preventing his son's access to it. He is also accused of failing to get his son help after he displayed warning signs, including violent drawings that were found on a math test the morning of the shooting.

James Crumbley's conviction comes weeks after his wife was found guilty of the same four charges over her role in the shooting.

Both are scheduled to be sentenced on April 9.

Their son, Ethan Crumbley, was sentenced to life in prison without parole after he pleaded guilty to 24 charges, including first-degree premeditated murder and terrorism resulting in death. Four students were killed and seven others were injured in the shooting.
