[quote=Anonymous]If the Crumbleys were either checked out or worn out and were not willing to be attentive parents to their son, then buying their son a gun and then not even making basic protections to secure the gun is about as negligent and irresponsible as can be.  If they were checked out or worn out and did not want to pay attention to their son, then they had options.  They could not get their son a gun until he was 18 and an adult.  They could get the gun, but do basic security to ensure that he did not have access to the gun when he wasn't supposed to.  Remember that the gun lock was found by authoritizes still in the original plastic wrapping and preset to the default combination.  So, it had never been used.  Neither the gun nor the ammunition recently purchased at the gun range were secured.  Even despite all of this, if after the meeting at the school, either parent could have stopped at home to check on the gun that was drawn on the very disturbed picture they were shown, was still there.

There were many ways that they were negligent.  They had many opportunities to do something to stop this tragedy both before and after the day of the murders.  And the fact that they did none of these, show that they were criminally negligent.

Jennifer Crumbley was correctly convicted.  It would be a huge miscarriage of justice if the man who bought and provided the gun, failed to secure the gun, failed to heed his son's depression and mental crisis, failed to care enough to pay attention to the picture and check on the gun, and failed to take that morning's warning about the photo seriously, was not  also found  criminally negligent in the murders of these children.[/quote]
