Jury selection began Monday in the trial of Jennifer Crumbley, the mother of Michigan school shooter Ethan Crumbley, over her alleged role in the November 2021 attack at Oxford High School that left four students dead and seven others injured.
Ethan Crumbley’s parents, Jennifer and James Crumbley, have each been charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter in connection with the attack, a rare case of parents being charged in connection to a child’s mass shooting.
Jennifer and James Crumbley each pleaded not guilty to the four counts in December 2021. The couple had to be captured in Detroit following an hourslong search when they did not turn themselves in for their scheduled arraignment, according to law enforcement officials.
Ethan Crumbley, who was 15 years old at the time of the shooting, was sentenced to life without parole in December after he pleaded guilty to 24 charges, including first-degree premeditated murder and terrorism causing death.
