MI shooter’s parents sh…ty but probably not guilty

The parents of the Oakland school shooter are probably not guilty unless it can be shown that they knew their son was going to shoot the students.  Their actions do not seem to fit the three elements required for involuntary manslaughter in Michigan.

It doesn’t mean that they might not be shitty parents, but as a society we should make sure we use the law as it is written and intended not as some would like it to be.

Michigan - 3 required elements of [involuntary ] manslaughter:

1. That the defendant caused the death of the deceased victim, that the deceased individual died as a result of the defendant's action. WEAK

2. That the defendant either:
a. intended to [unintentionally] kill[ed] the victim NOPE

b. intended to do [unintentionally did ] great bodily harm to the victim,NOPE
or 

c. created a situation where the risk of great bodily harm or death was very high MAYBE, knowing that as a result of the defendant's actions he or she knew UNLIKELY that serious harm or death would likely result.

3. That the defendant caused the death of the victim WEAK without justification or lawful excuse.
