The Michigan High School Dad Ethan Crumbleywas found guilty of all 4 counts of involuntary manslaughter… just weeks after his wife Jennifer I saw the same verdict.
The jury made its decision on James Crumbley on Thursday after 1 day of deliberations. His sentencing is scheduled for April 9, the same date as his wife.
With this verdict, Crumbley was found negligent for disregarding the warning signs displayed by his son that could have prevented the devastating event. Prosecutors said he even bought a gun for his son just days before he used it to open fire at Oxford High School in the Detroit suburb of Oxford Township, MI in November 2021, killing 4 students.
The verdict comes a few weeks later his wife Jennifer’s conviction – which marked a historic moment, as it is unprecedented for a father to be criminally charged for his son’s involvement in a mass shooting.

Jennifer’s testimony during the trial clarified the role she says her husband, James, played in the tragic events… saying he purchased the gun her son used in the shooting and was responsible for hiding it.
She also testified that she was aware that her son was struggling, but had no idea that he was capable of committing a mass shooting… saying that if she had known, she would have done everything differently.
Ethan, 17, was sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole in December.
