Jail ages you drastically. This is a completely different woman from the recent video of her walking into her son's interrogation room with her heels and cell phone yelling, "WHY?!". Because YOU failed at being a good mom. That's why!!!! I'm relieved to see these "parents" in the court. There's too many parents that just aren't there for their own children to process the mental turmoil they're going through. He needed help. There's zero zip nada excuse for what he did, but there's also a huge possibility that he wouldn't have done this if he had help.
Is she wrong? It's his fault, he is the man, handle your male/man, son, and take responsibility to support your boy child so that he will grow up to be a great man. But most men in the home are weak and leave the mother to do every goddamn thing, no wonder she was unhappy and ran into the arms of another man.
@@valeriereneeharper Listen all that bs sounds good, it doesn't always work like that, the wives/mothers puts up with lots of bs to keep the home together.
She doesn't feel comfortable with the gun, husband locks it, puts it away etc... BUT she's ok with driving her vehicle with it in there to take her 15 year old son to shoot at a range??? 🤔🤦♀️
Exactly! She contradicts herself in this video but also throughout the entire witness stand testimony. Hypocrit! She said @ they took his gun, shooting range and phone away” but the prosecutor then says “ do you took the gun and his phone and shooting range away..?” Immediately she says “ I never says I took the gun away! L..” she lied within a few seconds of her own statements!! She lies and lies! She’s angry about her stupid Christmas tree more than “ they just bought a gun!! What ? “ she even said she didn’t know they were buying.a gun that day so why wasn’t she surprised? Oh my this lady is sooo guilty! If she had cared one moment about her family she’d stop that shooting! But no she was mad she didn’t get her tree on time!!!
@@jfraserfisheryou would, at the least, ASK if he “put it up securely!” Or look yourself. Just because she” gave that job to James” doesn’t mean You can’t ask him if he did it esp since she said she didn’t trust him because he couldn’t even keep a job at 43 years old ! No excuse. “ I don’t know how to lock or unlock., it “ that doesn’t matter. You CAN and should be still worried about its secure or not! You don’t have to know how to do it but ask and make sites it is done right! Come on!! Guilty!!
That cable lock was never on. And there is no gun owner I know that takes the ammo out of the car but not the gun lol. That’s gun safety 101. You do not leave a firearm in a car unattended. But she’s trying to make it seem like she intentionally separated the gun from the ammo and hid them in separate places. I don’t by it for a second. Her defense is trash. It would have been a better defense to just explain they’re into guns, they were too busy to see the warning signs and just got complacent. But to add these little nuances is ridiculous. Just my opinion.
I agree 💯 it's all Politics now, EVERYTHING IS!! It's just ridiculous to see how the justice system is played out and both sides getting into things that don't matter. Facts are what should and do matter!!
You're asking the wrong question. The question is how can the parents of this kid buy him a gun. I've known plenty of kids who were plenty responsible enough even at a younger age then this kid that had started hunting with their parents or grandparents and we're just fine.The parents who properly instruct their kid on gun safety and are involved in their lives don't have these problems. It's not a gun accident here we're watching a trial about we're watching a trial about a kid who's parents failed him ,who had no business having a gun. This kid had real mental problems that they just let slide by and this is what you get
Honey, that’s not the problem here. Many teenagers are mentally and emotionally healthy and mature enough to own guns. The problem is that these parents weren’t supervising their child properly and on top of it their child had mental health problems that the parents chose to ignore.
How about knowing the 9 wasnt locked up with lock. The social media pics of Ethan pointing it at his phone. Not 1 text throwing a fit to her husband keeping it locked up. The cable lock was in closet in case brand new. Why not lock the 9 in cabinet securely. She is fibbing to many pics/posts of ethan with that 9 on his social media prior
The kid is 15 yrs of age … and for Christmas his mom goes out and buys him a gun ..! I mean on what planet is that ok and if that’s not bad enough the pot kid abs psychological and mental issues going on which she totally ignore … ! Beyond crazy to me that this goes on in America … Blame the kid lock him up and throw away the key …. Makes no sense .. parents are totally to blame here … !
It’s very hard for me to say this but I am. Did she want him to hurt himself or something? Why would she buy the gun for him if he wasn’t mentally stable for a gun?
I’ve been watching a lot of the trial. It’s hard to imagine they (parents) weren’t aware of his severe mental health issues. He was hallucinating! And telling them this, asking for help. It appears they were negligent based on that alone
She was posting about her life. Michigan is a state where a lot of people hunt and own firearms. It isn't a big deal. Buying the weapon for an unstable child and not keeping it secured, on the other hand, WAS a big deal.
@@JustJesstheMess Buying a gun for ANY child is a problem. I can't imagine any state allows gun ownership for anyone under the age of 18 and for good reason. (Michigan is 18+) Because a guns purpose is to seriously mame or kill and children are not ever mentally developed enough to fully understand repercussions and the permanence that comes with using one. Of course, an unstable child is more likely to use it to hurt others, but that doesn't mean stable ones can't do the same.
@@lolwat5569just cuz you can’t legally purchase doesn’t always mean you aren’t able to own a firearm. Gifting handguns from father/grandfather to son under the age of 18 has long been a tradition for many households.
She is doing nothing to change minds about her negligence of her son. The details her lawyer is eliciting only fill in the negligence picture more fully. I am wanting to hear her take some level of responsibility and there is nothing.
She really shouldn’t have testified. By trying to come off as a non knowing mom , she becomes not credible. It would have been better for her to at least admit she knew about the gun. Yes he had issues but didn’t think it was to the point of killing anyone. Instead she blames her husband and tries to make herself out to be so shocked. Not working. She admitted in the cop car they always go to the range” that’s what we do”. Also while she was put in that car she didn’t ask about her son once. As a mom I would want to know. Also didn’t ask about victims only after she asked the most important question. Can I have a cigarette? Cold.
Both parents should be protective of any weapons in the home, should be diligent and responsible with gun safety in the home where there are children present. Sad to hear she didn't bother with any of it.

She’s is minimizing her part of being involved with the gun after she purchased the gun. So I have two sons and one gun and they have been to gun range with my husband not me I don’t touch guns. But when they came home I watched my husband put it in the safe inside the gun box and shut it! I was vigil about it because it’s my job to be safe and make sure my family is safe.
Who in their right mind buys their kid a gun. Period! That amendment thing seems to be working a treat in the U.S! Tuning in from the safety of Country Victoria, Australia. 🇦🇺 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Both parents are guilty in this horrible shooting! And it's NOT only the responsibility of the husband=father. Of course the son has to locked up in prison for a long time.. BUT: the whole US system has failed, not only in this case. Weapons do NOT belong in the hands of kids!! And the NRA should be banned💪👍
The father also should have secured the gun, he is the MAN of the home. It's his responsibility to raise his son, make sure the gun is securely put away. He should have been spending time with the boy raising him correctly, but most men are so weak they leave everything to the mothers, it is overwhelming, no wonder she seeked refuge in another man's arms.
I don't understand owning guns nor taking a kid to the fire range as having a fun parent/child day. Or even buying your child a gun as a gift. What am I missing here?
She talks like every thing it’s normal… as a mother and wife I would make him to take it back…. To return that gun But she was more interested in her personal life….
Does anyone even pay attention to the facts of this trial and the testimony? 😂 Comment after comment after idiotic comment about the defendant's appearance
This woman's got way more problems on her hands than what her hair looks like. Weird how many people like to focus on a woman's appearance rather than the fact that she is responsible for her son killing people.
Lier!! “ my husband put it up” which she said means “ it was put in the case with the cable lock ..”!! Lie! The “cable lock” was still, INSIDE the case UNOPENED! Never opened, never used! On the day of the killings, when the cops found the case on the parents’ bed , left opened, the “cable lock” her words, was sitting inside the gun case , unopened ! There is a photo of the cable lock inside the zipped locked packaging it came in unopened! She states the gun case had the “cable lock” on it! She also said they had a gun safe. So why wasn’t her sons’” Christmas present” put in the safe? She did say “ my husband hid the gun”? Why ? Why wasn’t it in the gun safe? Why didn’t she ask her husband “did you put the gun away in the gun safe?” She’s blaming her husband but she too should have checked to make sure her husband did what he was suppose to do! Why check her husband’s words? Because she frequently stated she “ never could trust him… he couldn’t hold a job, he couldn’t show up on times he promised..” SHE said this so why believe he did the right thing with that gun? Why? I’ll tell you why- she was pissed about not getting her Christmas tree that day -her wants were delayed and she was angry!! I can easily see this woman acting like this! Easily! Selfish! Not caring about her husband or son! Just herself. That’s why she didn’t check on the gun being properly secured ! She had to get her tree!! Period! She said this!! She didn’t care if the gun was secured or not. She wanted her Black Friday bargains and her tree cut down! Period! No she couldn’t foresee her son would take the unlocked gun to school but she knew he loved that gun and was excited about having it! She knew!! She had soooo many chances to secure that gun but she put her own wants first! Which imo is the way she always acts! No wonder her son couldn’t talk to her! Would you? Somebody who just wants what she wants never asking what you want? Unbelievable she had any children. Thank goodness she only had one. No wonder her son was an “oops” baby! She never wanted a baby to interfere with her being Queen bee! With her having to put herself second or even not at all to a child! It’s so obvious that having 3 -5 children then an oops baby number 4/5 etc I could understand but one child! ? No I don’t get why she would call him that but to be angry she had to give someone, other than herself, attention!! GUILTY PLEASE!! For every lazy selfish parent out there who doesn’t check into their teenagers lives! If she goes to prison maybe those lazy parents will say “ I don’t want to go to jail so I better get off my phone and check my teens homework. Ask him what they’re studying in school..” maybe that the next shooter’s parents will be more mature and be a parent and not your kids best friend ! So you’re teen doesn’t like you but your teen still knows he’s not going to get any gun in your house!! The parent would be too afraid of going to jail ! GUILTY!! YES SHE IS! If she had done any one thing to secure that gun like ask dad” did you put the cable lock on the gun ?” A simple question but he might say “ nope I forgot I’ll do it now ..” then ask him again did you put the cable lock on the gun?” That’s all she had to do? I don’t even know a thing about guns. I’ve never been to a shooting gallery but I always ask my husband where is your hunting rifle? Oh can I see it?” Then I see the locked case! Done. = NO SCHOOL SHOOTINGS, 2-3 questions and that shooting never would have occurred!! Now you who think she’s not guilty tell me why one of my reasons here is unacceptable! Tell me why you/ her did not have to make sure the new gun that her son knew was bought for him wouldn’t ask if it’s locked up? Tell me one reason! She didn’t trust her husband she says she didn’t!! Why wouldn’t she ask if the gun was locked up then? Tell me !
I grew up in MN and I know there are a lot of hunters here. Most of us grew up learning to shoot at a young age. Although we are a blue state (there are many Trump supporters here though!), we haven't seen our state govt try much in the way of gun control measures. I believe that's because they know that it would never fly here, and would then ruin their careers in the next election.
I feel Horrible for the familys that fell victim to this horrific event. Having said that , yes I think Ethan should have been in therapy long before this event happened but I also think that his parents locked the gun as they should have and having children of my own.... they have all been in stages through their teens and young adult hood that have worried me but at not time would it EVER occur to me that any of my kids under simular circumstances of depression and teen age trials I would NEVER think for a second no matter what that they would open fire on anyone for any reason and yes these parents did not follow the red flags as they should have but I dont in anyway think they are accountable for what their son did. A lot of mistakes were made by the school as well as in why no one checked this kids locker or bookbag because I have seen that done for far less concerns than these and the parents and the school both dropped the ball but I dont think the parents should go down for murder at all I think they need some form of punishment but not prison for murder.
Nope...IDC.....he's a minor and never should have even been told it was 'his" we can tell kids not to get into the gd Cookies ALLLLL day but soon as we turn out backs they have cookies... if u really dont want them to have them then u dont buy themdid she literally say that she believes cuz they told him not to use it unless with dad at range he'd not use it....smh
She is being charged with involuntary manslaughter. (NOT murder as some are saying.) it’s a bold move for the prosecution but they are trying to hold both the parents and the school accountable for allowing this to happen via lawsuits.
She just implicated herself in not storing the key safely. She should have known. It was in a beer Stein. So a 15 yr old woukd just have to look in the steins. She was reckless.
If you're going to have guns in your house and have children, you need to take them to class as for guns safety. I'm thinking the boy had mental issues

I don’t even know a thing about guns. I’ve never been to a shooting gallery but I always ask my husband where is your hunting rifle? Oh can I see it?” Then I see the locked case! Done. = NO SCHOOL SHOOTINGS, 2-3 questions and that shooting never would have occurred!! Now you who think she’s not guilty tell me why one of my reasons here is unacceptable! Tell me why you/ her did not have to make sure the new gun that her son knew was bought for him wouldn’t ask if it’s locked up? Tell me one reason! She didn’t trust her husband she says she didn’t!! Why wouldn’t she ask if the gun was locked up then? Tell me !
Mom is shoving dad under the bus hard. Playing dumb about the gun is a joke.
Why wasn't the 9mm in the gun safe??
She was "ANGRY ABOUT CUTTING INTO HER CHRISTMAS TREE TIME".
So..SHE ADMITTED THAT A MAGAZINE CLIP WAS LOADED in THE FIREARM .....IN THE BACK OF HER CAR.
THAT'S ILLEGAL!
She stored the key in a BEER STEIN!!!
OMG 😮
Wasn't a good mom 👀 neither the father 😕never 😳buy guns 🤯for kids...!!!
I grew up in MN and I know there are a lot of hunters here. Most of us grew up learning to shoot at a young age. Although we are a blue state (there are many Trump supporters here though!), we haven't seen our state govt try much in the way of gun control measures. I believe that's because they know that it would never fly here, and would then ruin their careers in the next election.
I feel Horrible for the familys that fell victim to this horrific event. Having said that , yes I think Ethan should have been in therapy long before this event happened but I also think that his parents locked the gun as they should have and having children of my own.... they have all been in stages through their teens and young adult hood that have worried me but at not time would it EVER occur to me that any of my kids under simular circumstances of depression and teen age trials I would NEVER think for a second no matter what that they would open fire on anyone for any reason and yes these parents did not follow the red flags as they should have but I dont in anyway think they are accountable for what their son did. A lot of mistakes were made by the school as well as in why no one checked this kids locker or bookbag because I have seen that done for far less concerns than these and the parents and the school both dropped the ball but I dont think the parents should go down for murder at all I think they need some form of punishment but not prison for murder.
Somebody CHOSE to have an affair with this thing?! They must have gone horseback riding and got drunk also.
I can see him face palming right now😂
She was quite comfortable walking into a gin range with gun in tow.. ..
OMG 😮
Nope...IDC.....he's a minor and never should have even been told it was 'his" we can tell kids not to get into the gd Cookies ALLLLL day but soon as we turn out backs they have cookies... if u really dont want them to have them then u dont buy themdid she literally say that she believes cuz they told him not to use it unless with dad at range he'd not use it....smh
Or beer steins. Whatever he had lots of time to search for the keys.
Know nothing about this case. What is she accused of?
Ketchup 😂
She is being charged with involuntary manslaughter. (NOT murder as some are saying.) it’s a bold move for the prosecution but they are trying to hold both the parents and the school accountable for allowing this to happen via lawsuits.
She just implicated herself in not storing the key safely. She should have known. It was in a beer Stein. So a 15 yr old woukd just have to look in the steins. She was reckless.
This should not be happening. Overreach is a dangerous game to play. This is senseless...
Now can we talk about commonsense gun Safety laws?
If you're going to have guns in your house and have children, you need to take them to class as for guns safety. I'm thinking the boy had mental issues
This should be an interesting cross examination.
Were the guns locked up ??
“Are guns your thing?”
The only negligent matter here is the prosecutors ominous plot which is darker than a moonless night...!
Give her a break.. 😢
Her husband handles the guns .. locks the guns...has the keys:) His fault.
It's all her husband's fault....
Who the hell was wit that?
