#Michigan #Guns #Crime
As my stepfather used to say: He’s old enough to know better!
Wise man
I agree with the a sentence I’m happy that the parents being charged too about time.
Firing squad for this pathetic waste of life
No way, he should have to live with what he did. Death is too easy.
People need to stop turning EVERYTHING political. This was just a psycho that killed a bunch of people. Save the politics for voting day.
Prisoners: Oh, boy. Fresh meat!
Good on this judge!
Good! Please don’t let him out!
The legal “yardstick” is whether he knew right from wrong. This kid has a ton of problems, granted, BUT he STILL knew that what he was doing WAS WRONG. Knowing and giving a 💩 are two different things.
Just another Kyle Rittenhouse
There are no such things as “right and wrong”. In reality, there is only action and reaction.
@☁POPULATION-_-420🌿
not comparable
Does anybody think about spending life in prison when they pull the trigger and conclude it’s worth it?
Very sad and really I think as a society we all are to blame 😭.I pray for the victims and their families 🙏.
@user-lo7dy, I agree with you.
How many times we hear ,we see or know about neighbors, my friend’s son or we watched an incident in the public transportation, and we did not reported it. Because we do not want to offend or get in trouble with the other person.
We looked the other way.
@Sra MARI No. prosecutors judges and juries and parole boards
@X vonPocalypse You don’t have a clue.
@Sra MARI Good Samaritans get prosecuted and JAILED. Wake up
Some of the factors in society may have contributed but to lay this on all of us is very unfair and unintentionally cruel to the many good, honest, compassionate people in our society. Yes, there were factors in society
The 1997 14 year old Kentucky school shooter Michael Carneal killed 3 and injured 5 and he got life with parole after 25 years but didn’t get parole but in this case Ethan Crumbly was 1 year older, killed 4 people instead of 3, and wounded 7 people instead of 5 so Ethan Crumbly Deserves Life without Parole
Something was wrong in that house and it wasn’t just the kid. The kid killed 4 other kids and terrorized scores more. His life is over. The parents need to be held accountable for it all.
What did parents do.
@Jon Freeman
They hatched that monster
@Jon Freeman They failed just like yours.
Life in prison and his sicko parents should get 20 years for their assisting him!
I thought it was going to say he can receive the death penality…
What about their parents?
You sure have loooong sentences in the States . And some states are worse than others. If you’re going to keep a person in a cell for 30+ years, you may as well just execute them . I wish you didn’t but if you keep them in solitary for too long they just end up murdering correction staff of other inmates . And they go insane too . Abolish capital punishment . And your second amendment while you’re at it . Juvenile murderers don’t deserve to be incarcerated for over 25 years . They should be held until they’re 25 then given psychiatric assessments. It’s inhumane to lock young kids up with adults . They, the juvenile will be preyed upon by rapists .
Our Supreme court said it’s unconstitutional to execute minors. But if he is released he will do it again. So there is no other choice left.
Ah an ignorant foreigner telling Americans to
Abolish Capital Punishment, OuR 2nd Amendment Right now & to let a 15 years old Mass Killer form jail after 10 years
Keep your ignorance to yourself, Foreigner
May ? MUST be !
Throw away the key.
Wrong message. We dont have the money. Homeless, hungry kids. Why are mass shooters worth saving?
Whatever ailes him, what’s the point, at this point?
AND THAT “MESSAGE”, you know?
This is Injustice !! Consequence should be a firing line !! 💯✅ #Justice
Lock that pilgrim up for life.. he should get death penalty..
This guy is a stone cold killer. It wasn’t an accident.
You can tell by looking in those eyes that something was wrong. So sorry no one took the time to help that child.
Why would any other penalty even be on the table
what a fnckung joke. life
They going love that fresh young fish in prison believe that
Give him the death penalty already.
They shouldn’t serve meat in our prisons.. No need to murder innocent animals for the sake of those who take the lives of others.
Good news! They barely even serve food in prisons.
There is only one place for him.
Im sorry! I dont feel sorry for him. He should get life without parole. He knew exactly what he was doing and deaerves to serve life. NO EXCUSES make an exqmple to DETER others. He is a sick individual. I had a hard up bringing but i didnt go around killing other children. His parents shouldnt be in jail they didnt pull the trigger, they will suffer knowing they raised thay monster and having the responsibility of taking care of that him until they die. May God have mercy on them!
Firing Squad…..eye for an eye..
Life? This makes me remember a quote from a guy in the 75th Ranger Regiment, “Some people just need to die, most people aren’t comfortable with making that kind of decision, but it doesn’t change the fact that there are just some people in the world that are better off dead.”
WOW 😳
Can’t sentence a 15 year old to death buddy
Its a lot funnier if he suffers in prison though tbh
@Henry Are you willing to pay for his clothing, housing, and food for the rest of his life?
They should make it so the automatic sentencing for a crime like mass shooting is death by default. So you know going in what you’re getting yourself into if you decide to be a mass shooter in our society. The jury has no say, it’s just death if you’re involved in a mass shooting.
We need to bring back the rope and tree concept. First, it’s a deterrent, and second, it saves taxpayers tons and tons of money. Money isn’t something that falls from the sky. Money is time x labor. That’s OUR labor and OUR time that feeds these people and pays for their medical issues. The justice system punishes honest citizens for other people’s crimes.
Haha ha old school hangman. Low cost cheap and clean. No high voltage electricity needed. No chemicals needed. No bullets required.
No, it would not save tax slaves any money. The government has forcibly taken your money already. Whatever they decide to spend it on, you will not get it back.
This aint some barbaric wacko authoritarian society. No public executions.
What?!? He should receive the death penalty!!
We don’t have the death penalty in Michigan so that’s not even an option or topic of discussion in this case.
He should face a firing squad
Can? May? Why is this even a question?
Life without parole seems fitting.
Yup. Locked 🔒 up until his death 🪦
Hopefully the kids parents will get time in prison as well.
Its about time they got tough on these killers. A four year old knows right from wrong
ايش قصة هذا الرجل يجب ان تفرجو عنة بشير الزمزمي
Life that he faces for killing Four (4) of his fellow students and they are no longet as mough us, and he gets yo roam the halls of prison and meet with his family and that is justice?
Wanna bet?
Oh no. What are we ever going to do without him in society?
😂for real
Good – that’s where he belongs.
Parents need to be held accountable too considering their awareness (and lack of response) to his issues prior to the school shooting.
Great
Lowpd???.:*.!
Go on and CAGE HIM FOR LIFE! HE IS A DANGER TO EVERYONE
NO SECOND CHANCES.
For real
And his parents?
Ah yes! Another great product of our super duper narcissistic society!
Life??? Give him the chair…and his parents
Come back in many years & some law changes he will be eligible for parole. I’ve watched many pardon hearings of horrific crimes where these people are granted pardons then eventually paroled. Listening to the pain from victims/families has been horrible. I realize it’s a case by case situation but people found justice/peace in life without parole sentences that are being over turned.
Look these up

Like the girl who was part of Charles Manson’s cult who just got released after serving 30 years. She’s now a free woman but all the people she killed will be off this earth forever. How does that even make sense? This system in america is broken.
He gain more weight on the jail. I think it suit him.
Lose the masks…it never worked and looks ridiculous
He’ll have plenty of Time to think about his actions. Don’t drop the soap
Tf you mean “may”? just do it
Good lock these little hate monger punks for life
Lock him up and throw away the key.
He was 15 when is brain is not functioning right!! throw away the keys pls, he dangerous!
Good decision but quick question
So the guy who killed innocent human beings i.e mass killing, we are going to pay his per year cost which could be from $14,700 upto $69000 depending on the state. Does it make sense ????
He should face the same treatment for what crime he did. The reason we see more and more coz justice/law is messed up
More Americans have been killed BY Americans in AMERICA than ALL the foreign wars combined that Americans have fought in ,mainly thanks to the second amendment ….
His parents need to get some time too! They failed that kid!!!!
How come you only do follow ups on W shooters
This was last year
No follow ups on these 4 school shootings from this year
WHY?
because no W involved

The parents should be locked up as well.
Doesn’t have to worry what to do with the reast of his life
Proud white boy 😅
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is not to sell him a gun in the first place
Good luck
🙏🙏🙏
Public hangings in town square, televised for the whole world to see. Taxpayers don’t need to pay for his shelter and 3 meals a day, medical, dental, education, etc. For the next 60+ years.
What’s with the whole may or could or possibly bullsh!t. Just give the garrbage the chair & his vvhite trrash parents 10 years each. Stupid Justice System
Maybe we should address the problems with the society that creates these monsters? How many shootings will it take for society to realize it’s the one producing them? You can lock him up forever, sure, but it won’t stop the next shooter.
Murderer deserves death penalty..pay back time due time no pity for the criminal!! 😢😢😢
Hoodlum…
Good
He deserves to rot in prison.
Murder is murder regardless of age
I starting to not be able to keep track of all these incidents, sorry to say. We should have acted as soon as little children were targeted. That should have been it for our society. Something should have changed to prevent this.
And yet it wasn’t. It’s scary what that says about us as a society.
Why is this man still breathing,?
SICK PUPPIES NEEDS TO BE PUT TO SLEEP. LIFE SHOULD BE AUTOMATIC IF DEATH PENALTY IS OFF THE TABLE.
He execution style killed children. Lay this garbage to rest.
White Americans need to reflect on their countries history, reflect on modern times, and ask themselves why mass killings is so appealing to them. In the past the used “religion” as an excuse, than outdated racist science in some events, now it’s due to “mental illness.” What is it?
NBC this has been reported on multiple non partisan news outlets so no need for your one sided so called journalists to report this. Have you recieved your weekend directives from the democratic party yet? You must know that America is aware of all the important news you dont report, eh? Wow, hows that for an organizarion who calls themselves a legit news source? Doesnt news sources in communist countries also suppress news from the people?
What should he face , a happy meal …
Pathetic. Will cost the government millions during this evils pos lifetime. Death penalty would have been the bare minimum.
Should be death penalty
He will be someone’s wife inside.
He should spend his life behind bars! He killed people!
“Where are the parents in all this.” “They’re also in jail” 😂
It’s horrible what he did, but he was a child, his brain not fully formed, I feel his sentence should be no longer than 30 years. That way, he has time to improve himself & they could make it a condition of his release that he must do a certain number of hours volunteer work.
He can Stay in prison and improve himself in prison. He’s a danger to society.
save the taxpayers some money and just give him the death penalty.
Good Riddence. P.O.S
his father should be punished for careless behavior.
But obama made it unconstitutional. He will get out eventually, thank obama for it.
This is truly sad.
bye wimp. good riddance no matter the sentence.
May? He should
