Jennifer Crumbley, mother of the Oxford High School shooter, is seeking bond release while her appeal against involuntary manslaughter charges is underway. Her attorney argues that the charges are tenuous and that she has not posed a flight risk during her three years in custody.
Jennifer Crumbley arrives for her sentencing, Tuesday, April 9, 2024, in Pontiac, Mich. A judge agreed that the parents of a Michigan school shooter were trying to avoid police when they were holed up in a Detroit art studio before their arrest in 2021. James and Jennifer Crumbley were in court to face sentencing for involuntary manslaughter for their role in an attack that killed four students at Oxford High School in 2021.
Michael Dezi, Crumbley's attorney says while her appeal is going through the court process she should be released from the Michigan Department of Corrections Women's Huron Valley Facility.filed Thursday with the Oakland County Circuit Court says Crumbley should be released on bond and says she is "not a flight risk."Dezi in his motion says "At this point, Mrs. Crumbley has been in custody for over three years.
His motion was filed with the state's appeals court on December 2 saying, "Two of the prosecution’s key witnesses, Mr. Hopkins and Mr. Ejak, entered into cooperation agreements to testify against Mrs. Crumbley. Yet, the prosecution hid the existence of these agreements before and during Mrs. Crumbley’s trial. Mrs. Crumbley’s right to a fair trial was further denied when the jury was instructed that it could convict Mrs. Crumbley even without a unanimous verdict.
Dezi asked for a hearing next month in Oakland County in front of Judge Cheryl Matthews, the judge who presided over the case for both James and Jennifer Crumbley.
