Michigan Teen Pleads Guilty to Murder and Terror Charges in Oxford High School Shooting
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Michigan, a teenage gunman pleaded guilty on Monday to charges of
first-degree murder and terrorism for a mass shooting at Oxford High
School in a Detroit suburb last November. Ethan Crumbley was just 15
years old at the time of the attack, which killed 4 students and injured
six other people. Crumbley may be called to testify against his parents,
James and Jennifer Crumbley, who face manslaughter charges for allegedly
giving the gun used in the shooting to their son as an early Christmas
present; and for failing to intervene when their son showed clear signs
of mental distress ahead of the massacre.
