Ethan Crumbley apologized before the sentencing for the 2021 high school shooting as parents still in jail on related charges
A judge sentenced a Michigan teenager to life in prison on Friday for killing four students and terrorizing others at Oxford high school in 2021, after listening to hours of gripping anguish from parents and wounded survivors.
Judge Kwame Rowe rejected pleas from defense lawyers for a shorter sentence and ensured that Ethan Crumbley, 17, will not get an opportunity for parole.
Moments before learning his fate, the teen apologized and appeared to agree with his victims that the stiffest punishment was appropriate.
The really sad thing for me is that I honestly didn't bother looking it up until you said that and I realized that I really should. There have been so, so many.
Fuck his parents. They had ample signs that he needed mental help. Instead of doing that, they bought him a gun. Now that he has the bare minimum of mental health services, he is regretful.
In order for us to find out if someone's actually beyond help or not, we should probably try to help them first. That never happened. We can't just assume people can't be helped if we never tried.
It's almost laughable that you say that in a thread where someone who didn't get help and shot up a school is showing remorse once they got help. What is your point exactly?
The shooter kid parents are fucking retarded. He legit had drawn a picture of gun, and said crazy shit, AND asked for help on it, but yet they didn't help at all. These group of people do not represent Michigan citizens
They were Trump voters, so that's inherent. They seemed enthusiastic about their son's interest in guns because it's right-wing.
But America makes guns available to shitty parents and rarely requires them to be properly secured from children, no matter how many red flags that child shows.
Stories like this will happen over and over again until that changes.
