Jennifer Crumbley's trial for the involuntary manslaughter of four people continued on 6 December, with the prosecution potentially resting its case today. To date, the prosecution has sought to demonstrate that Crumbley should be held culpable for her son Ethan's actions on 30 November 2021, when he shot dead four classmates at Oxford High School, Michigan, owing to her ownership of the handgun he used and her knowledge of his mental health issues. The prosecution has claimed that Crumbley sent a text to her son stating "don't do it" but failed to intervene further. The defence has sought to argue that Crumbley cannot be held responsible for her son's actions. On 5 December, the defence sought to demonstrate that Crumbley had not attempted to assist her son, as the prosecution alleged, but rather had sought to assist law enforcement officers in their investigation.
