TL;DR Summary

The mother of a teenager who committed a mass school shooting in Michigan is set to stand trial for involuntary manslaughter, accused of making a gun accessible to her son, ignoring his mental health needs, and declining to take him home when confronted with violent drawings at school on the day of the attack. Jury selection begins for Jennifer Crumbley, while her husband will face a separate trial in March. Their son, Ethan, was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to the shooting. The case is notable as the first instance of parents being charged in a mass U.S. school shooting, and the defense insists the tragedy was not foreseeable.
