Jennifer Crumbley, convicted mother of oxford school shooter, requested that a judge release him from prison, saying it would be “grossly unfair and unjust” to keep him locked up during his ongoing appeal process.
The release request came after Crumbley was convicted of four counts of involuntary manslaughter for the Nov. 30, 2021, shooting death of son Ethan.
Tate Myre, 16, killed in shooting at Oxford High School; Justin Schilling, 16; Hana St. Juliana, 14; and Madisyn Baldwin, 17, and seven others were injured.
Her husband was James Crumbley. Later convicted on the same charges.
Crumbly’s attorney, Michael Dessie, filed a motion in Oakland County Circuit Court on Thursday, arguing that Crumbly is not a “flight risk” and “poses no danger to the public.”
“This case is entangled with the prosecution’s excessive allegation of involuntary manslaughter by the parents for the intentional criminal acts of their son, who is charged as an adult in the eyes of the law,” Dessie wrote in the court filing. Was imposed and dealt with.”
Desi Crumbley argued that He should not be locked up until his case reaches the Michigan Supreme Court.
“…It would be extremely unfair and unjust to keep Mrs. Crumbley locked up for years while this case progresses slowly – possibly for years – before the appellate courts,” Daisy wrote, noting that she had already been locked up for three years. It has been closed for more than a year.
He said, “Given the extremely tenuous nature of these charges, prosecutors should not be rewarded with prolonged unlawful imprisonment before the Michigan Supreme Court hears and decides this case.”
Oakland County Chief Assistant Prosecutor David Williams said in a statement Thursday jennifer crumbley had to stay closed Because of her actions – not because of the actions of her then 15-year-old son.
He said, “Jennifer Crumbley was tried by a jury of her peers for her own actions and inactions that led to the Oxford High School shooting – not for the actions of her son.”
He said, “A jury of 12 people heard testimony and reviewed countless pieces of evidence before they unanimously found him guilty as charged, and the judge sentenced him.” “This was a disgusting set of facts that resulted in a conviction with a prison sentence of 10-15 years.”
The Crumbly parents made history as the first parents to be convicted of a mass shooting committed by their child.
jennifer was sentenced She was sentenced to 10 to 15 years in prison in an Oakland County court case, arguing that the now 46-year-old woman had ignored her son’s calls for help in the years before the shooting.
She and James also showed up at Oxford High on the same day that Ethan shot people in the hallway to discuss violent images he had drawn on worksheets in class with school administrators, but they left and soon returned to work. But went back. Later.
Earlier this month, Jennifer Crumbley asked the court to overturn her conviction or grant her a new trial.
