15-year-old sophomore student Ethan Crumbley fired 15 to 20 rounds from his semiautomatic handgun purchased by his parents as an early Christmas gift. Murdering 4 students and injuring 8 others including a teacher at his Oxford High School in Oxford, Michigan. Which is about 30 miles from Detroit. Surprisingly, he asked for a lawyer and has refused to be questioned by investigators. He said the teen’s parents told the kid not to speak with cops. He is being charged as an adult with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of terrorism causing death, and is being held without bail.

A tentative arraignment was scheduled to be held at 4 p.m. Friday, for Ethans parents Jennifer and James, but never happened because the couple was not in custody by that point. They were on the run. “Allegedly” i will say. Authorities found them in Detroit early Saturday morning and arrested them. Jennifer and James Crumbley were found inside a commercial building about 50 miles away from their Oxford, Michigan, home early Saturday, after a tip from the building’s owner, who saw their SUV there, the Detroit Free Press reported. The parents are now each facing four counts of involuntary manslaughter. The crime is a 15-year felony. On top of that they’re being held on 500k bail each.
