OAKLAND COUNTY, Mich. — Jennifer and James Crumbley are the first parents convicted in a U.S. mass school shooting.
On Nov. 30, 2021, 17-year-old Madisyn Baldwin, 16-year-old Tate Myre, 17-year-old Justin Shilling and 14-year-old Hana St. Juliana were killed in a mass shooting at Oxford High School by Jennifer and James' son. Seven others, including a teacher, were also injured in the shooting.
Their son pled guilty to a slew of charges, including terrorism and first-degree murder, and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Just days after the shooting, Jennifer and James both were charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter.
On April 10, 2024, Jennifer and James received their sentences of at least 10 years in prison. Two days later, the trailer for "Sins of the Parents: The Crumbley Trials" was released.
The documentary, produced by ABC News Studios, will premiere on Hulu on April 18.
The documentary explores the groundbreaking trials of the two Crumbley parents, who were found guilty of involuntary manslaughter after prosecutors presented evidence of an unsecured gun at home and indifference toward the teen’s mental health.
The trailer for the documentary includes interviews with the attorney representing the Oxford shooting victims' families Ven Johnson and prosecuting attorney Karen McDonald. It also shows a behind-the-scenes look at the prosecution's plan for the trials.
