The father of the Apalachee High School shooting suspect has been arrested and charged with numerous crimes related to the murder spree. The prosecutors bringing those charges appear to be following in the footsteps of their Michigan counterparts who secured convictions against the parents of the Oxford High School shooter.
After Jennifer Crumbley was convicted of involuntary manslaughter under the theory that her negligence led to her son murdering four of his fellow students, rather than any direct involvement in the attack, I predicted we’d likely see more cases down the line. The conviction marked a success for the first of its kind charges, but I reasoned it also wouldn’t be the last time we saw a case like that.
