Everyone is wearing masks. The receptionist wouldn’t know who she was buzzing in. Or he could wait until the following day and just walk in with the rest of the students |
Since they were big gun advocates, it doesn't sound like they would cooperate with anyone. Michigan is full of anti government types. |
Not if he had been admitted to a mental hospital, for being a danger to himself and others. |
| They left their son to deal with this on his own? Wow. |

Can people PLEASE not post without listening to the press conference.
Many of you are ignorant of what happened/is known. |
Which is why I said the school can't absolve themselves of responsibility by saying that they left the power of how to handle the situation in the hands of the kid's parents. (For example, blaming the parents for not inspecting the kid's backpack before he went back into the school. After the school knew that he had searched for ammunition online and drawn a picture of a gun, "blood everywhere" and him not being able to stop his thoughts. ) |
that's really not so straight forward as it may seem |
+1 The whole presser is here: |
They didn't kill anyone. They should have just turned themselves in. Unless they had active warrants or did something worse that their son's case would suddenly shine a light on. |
What? They left AFTER their kid was charged with murder. Not before. |
| I hope everyone can at least agree that these are the worst parents ever. |
PP is talking about when the parents left the school after the meeting the morning of the shooting. |
And OP is talking about them FLEEING after they were charged by the Oakland County prosecutor. Hence the 'They left their son to deal with this on his own?'. He's dealing with being charged with murder. |
No, but if the school would have reported the threats to police or called police because they were concerned about his safety/safety of other students and parents wouldn’t take him home, then the police may have been able to intervene in a positive way. You can call the police simply for feeling threatened and the school should have- and made the report. Then it is the job of the police to decide if it is credible threat, if he needs to be searched, maybe he would ask parents about home weapons- I don’t know. I am astonished the school let him keep attending and didn’t involve police though. |
Wow. 1:22pm Mother texts 'Ethan don't do it'. 1:37pm Father calls 9/11 and reports a gun missing. The same gun was stored unlocked in a drawer in their bedroom. The shooting started at 12:51PM. Little late mom. |
