The parents of the Michigan school shooting suspect ignored numerous warning signs that included hallucinations, animal torture and obsession over guns and Nazi propaganda, prosecutors say.
Jennifer and James Crumbley made a court appearance via Zoom on Friday, where their request for a lower bail amount was denied by a judge.
The parents are being held on bond of $500,000 apiece. Defense lawyers representing the pair requested the bail amount be lowered to $100,000. Judge Julie Nicholson denied that motion Friday. On the morning of Nov. 30, a school guidance counselor called James and Jennifer Crumbley into a meeting, where they were told to seek counseling for their son within 48 hours or else the school would call child protective services, according to authorities.
