TL;DR Summary
The parents of Ethan Crumbley, a teenager who killed four students in a Michigan high school shooting, can face trial for involuntary manslaughter, according to a state appeals court ruling. The court said the parents could have prevented the shooting if they had not purchased a gun for their son or taken him home from school when staff became alarmed about his extreme drawings. Ethan Crumbley has pleaded guilty to terrorism and murder and could be sentenced to life in prison without parole. The parents' lawyers declined to comment, citing a gag order.
