Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald announced that Ethan Crumbley, the 15-year-old suspect in the Michigan school shooting, will be charged as an adult with one count of terrorism causing death, four counts of first-degree murder, seven counts of assault with intent to murder, and 12 counts of possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony.
The suspect will be charged as an adult, McDonald said.
“There are crimes that the legislature said that are so serious, that a person who commits them can automatically be charged as an adult. First Degree Murder is the most serious of all those crimes. Second, there are facts leading up to the shooting that suggests this was not just an impulsive act,” McDonald said, who noted those facts “are not appropriate for discussion” at this time. . .
Four students died due to the shooting. Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard identified three of the students on Tuesday as 16-year-old Tate Myre, 14-year-old Hana St. Juliana, and 17-year-old Madisyn Baldwin. . .
The fourth student died on Wednesday morning and was identified as 15-year-old Justin Shilling. McDonald clarified at the press conference that Shilling was 15, not 17 as previously reported.

Michigan School Shooting Suspect Charged With Terrorism, Murder; 4 Students Dead
One count of terrorism? Is it possible that there really is nothing that cannot be politicized? Was this kid really out to terrorize the school, the city, the state, the country, or what? Was this really more than an out of sorts teen, acting before working all the details out? Somewhat premeditated but perhaps made possible by the sudden availability of a gun? No motive to support terrorism or anything yet, but the charge de jour is being applied as it seems to be all the rage to do in Washington and when anything has to do with our illegitimate government. It was Better Before Biden, 3 B’s to live by.
It will be interesting to learn (if we ever do) why this is being looked at as an act of terrorism. I suppose we might assume there were communications on social media that connect the shooter with a terrorist group—-or maybe it’s just the “in thing” to throw that into the pot. I suppose too that MSM and our almighty fake government will turn this into a political circus and find some way to use it to their advantage—-absolutely to promote their belief that guns, instead of people, kill. The one thing I agree with in what we’ve been told so far, is that this little punk should be tried as an adult. And then, there’s always the ongoing question of mind manipulation which we know has occurred, and has been used effectively to make a point. But we’ll never EVER know anything about that.
