school shooter 'deeply disturbed' and parents buy him a gun

[butters]

Crumbley repeatedly texted his mom about seeing "demons" and "ghosts" at home, prosecutors said in court on Friday, according to the Detroit Free Press. He also recorded himself torturing animals, made Molotov cocktails at home, and joked about shooting up a school.

"It's time to shoot up a school. JK. JK. JK," Crumbley wrote in a text to a friend, according to county prosecutors.

The prosecutors also said Crumbley had been fascinated by Nazi propaganda, and said he had searched up guns and school shootings so frequently that he began to receive ads concerning "his mental well-being and firearms," the Detroit Free Press reported.

But his parents — James and Jennifer Crumbley — "did not intervene" or "schedule therapy," Assistant Oakland County Prosecutor Marc Keast said.

"Instead, they bought him what he desperately wanted, a 9mm Sig Sauer handgun," he added.

the parents must be held fully accountable. this teenager desperately needed psychiatric intervention, but they bought him a gun instead then did a runner and abandoned him when his mental health drove him to become a killer of other teenagers.

now the father

Gun nuts with kids , grandkids, nieces, or nephews are pissing themselves right about now.

Better keep them gunz locked up boys and girls.

The precedent has been set.

The precedent will be followed when the pathetic father of that troubled kid gets convicted as well.

i only saw parts of what was shown of her trial but she struck me as someone used to manipulating others in order to make herself appear as she wants to appear...for her own benefit.

she seemed concerned about the food they served her, the weight she'd gained, missing her horses (all of which might seem 'normal' and even 'reasonable') but where was her concern for her son? was she asking about how he was doing? was she asking if he was receiving psychiatric treatment or if he was suffering violence from other inmates? did she say she missed him at all? If she did, i didn't see that brought up in trial, so while she might be used to getting her own way she wasn't as smart as she probably saw herself to be. A jury might have responded better to her showing apparent distress for her child, for the children of others, rather than simply accepting no blame and pointing at the father. She absolutely struck me as having no emotional concern about anyone other than herself. What decent parent wouldn't be tearing themselves up over what happened, even if they had no actual guilt in what did?

All true, but I still believe the father was more culpable when it comes to the gun from what I have heard so far.

It does sounds like she wasn’t totally invested in what her son was going through psychologically , OR what her husband was doing with regards to the gun stuff.

The mother’s conviction was warranted , and the fathers will be even more so.

She doesn't strike me as particularly bright and by the sounds of it she wanted to escape homelife as much as possible. Probably doesn't ask about her son because he's a complete psycho and is enjoying the respite from having to deal with him .That in no way exonerates her from blame. Being so open and flaunting his violent tendencies at school sounds like a cry for help which his parents ignored. That boy should have had psychiatric care as a child or been formed that day at the very least to the closest hospital with a psychiatric ward. Pointing her finger and blaming her husband shows a total lack of remorse for the deaths of those teenagers, her son and her husband.She's lucky she's only being charged with manslaughter.
S'up with the shooter kid being charged with involuntary manslaughter? I would have thought 2nd degree would be more fitting.

*do you form people in the US?
