About this episode
Jennifer Crumbley. On Tuesday, a Michigan jury convicted Crumbley, a school shooter's mother, on four counts of involuntary manslaughter for her son’s killing of four high-school students in 2021. Crumbley is the first parent in the U.S. to ever be found criminally responsible for their child carrying out a mass killing. Her husband, James Crumbley, is scheduled to stand trial next month. Editor's note: Tangle does not name mass shooters because of the well documented contagion effect . For similar reasons, where possible, we also try to share limited information about the shooter and their alleged motives.
