Emma Huver, a 26-year-old woman from Lansing, was sentenced to five years in federal prison for her role in the accidental shooting death of her 2-year-old son, King Muhammad, who shot himself in the head after obtaining a loaded firearm from the vehicle. The incident occurred on October 24, 2023, at a gas station, while Huver was distracted on her phone. Surveillance footage revealed that a bullet hole appeared in the passenger window moments before Huver exited the vehicle holding her injured son, with a gun falling from the car. U.S. Attorney Mark Totten emphasized that the tragedy could have been prevented, highlighting the need to keep firearms away from those legally prohibited from possessing them. Additionally, two other individuals, Avis Coward and Gina Schieberl, are facing charges connected to the incident, with Coward being the gun's owner and Schieberl charged with tampering with evidence. The case underscores the ongoing issue of gun violence, particularly its impact on children, as it is now the leading cause of death for individuals aged 0-19.
