Jennifer Crumbley, convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the Michigan high school shooting carried out by her son, seeks release on bond.
Her attorney argues that Crumbley is not a danger and should be allowed to go free pending her appeal. He claims the sentence is unfair and based on secret deals.
The court has not yet decided on the bond request.
Oakland County prosecutors oppose Crumbley’s release, stating that the jury found her guilty based on her actions leading up to the shooting. They maintain that she ignored warning signs and failed to secure the gun used in the attack.
Ethan Crumbley, Jennifer’s son, is serving a life sentence for the shooting. Prosecutors allege that the parents’ negligence contributed to the tragedy.
