Parents of Michigan School Shooter to Be Tried for Manslaughter
---------------------------------------------------------------

A court in Michigan has ordered the parents of the Oxford High School
shooter to stand trial for manslaughter. Ethan Crumbley was just 15
years old at the time of the attack last November, which killed four
students and injured six other people. On Thursday, the Michigan Court
of Appeals ruled there was enough evidence to bring Jennifer and James
Crumbley to trial after they gave their son easy access to a gun and
failed to inform the school, and failed to stop the massacre despite
clear warning signs.
