Please try again later {{ /verifyErrors }} Oxford High School officials had the legal right to search shooting suspect Ethan Crumbley’s backpack and locker before he opened fire on classmates but failed to do so, Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald has said. The prosecutor said the shooting could have been prevented and that the suspect’s parents are also facing charges because “we have to start addressing how somebody like can so easily get their hands on a weapon and we have to hold the people responsible who allowed that to happen”. But in this case, you can’t possibly look at their actions and say that they didn’t have reason to believe that there was real concern about a violent act.” Mr Crumbley, 15, stands accused of killing four students and wounding another six students and one teacher at Oxford High School on 30 November. “He wouldn’t have been made aware that we were searching for his parents since he’s in isolation, and it’s not like we have a TV clicker in his hands,” Mr Bouchard said.
