Father of American high school student convicted of manslaughter. James Crumbley, 47, was on trial for his role in the killing committed by his son Ethan.
The teenager pleaded guilty in October 2022 to bringing the gun with 50 bullets in his backpack to his high school and shooting the high school students. He killed two girls and two boys aged 14 to 17 and injured six other students and a teacher. Faced with the number of gun deaths involving minors, pressure is mounting in the United States to punish parents who allow access to weapons.
