OXFORD High School shooter Ethan Crumbley was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole on Friday.

Ethan was a sophomore at the Michigan high school, which is about 45 miles from Detroit, when he walked out of his school's bathroom and killed four students on November 30, 2021.

Before he was sentenced, Ethan stood and spoke directly to the judge.
"I am a really bad person, I've done some terrible things," said Ethan.
"I've hurt many people."
The school shooter said he wanted the victims' families to be happy with the sentencing outcome and apologized for what he did.
The judge then spoke, telling the courtroom the massacre is nobody's fault but Ethan's.
He said it was clear that the shooter wanted notoriety based on his pre-meditation and actions.
"The court cannot ignore the deep trauma the defendant caused," the judge said.
Tate Myre, 16, Hana St. Juliana 14, Madisyn Baldwin, 17, and Justin Shilling, 17, were killed, and seven others were injured during the massacre.
Survivors and victims' loved ones filled the courtroom on Friday to watch the killer's sentencing in person.
Many of them gave emotional impact statements.
Ethan, who was wearing an orange jail jumpsuit, kept his head down and looked at the table in front of him while they spoke.

LIVES TORN APART

Nicole Beausoleil, mother of 17-year-old Madisyn, was the first to speak.
The girl's mom described the painful moments she experienced after learning her daughter was one of the students killed.
"Tears soaked the cold floor I laid on," she said.
Beausoleil shared how hard it was to identify her young daughter's lifeless body in the coroner's office and then tell her 11-year-old daughter that her older sister was killed.
She described seeing her daughter's body covered in blood and not being allowed to touch her.
She was dragged away screaming that day.
"I hope the screams keep you up at night and they cause real hallucinations,” she said to her daughter's killer.
"Those four walls become your home suffocating in guilt."
Tate's father, Buck Myre, told the judge: "Love is absent from our family because when you have no joy — you have no love.
"Me and my wife are trying to figure out how to save our marriage, which is really sad because we didn't do anything to each other."
Craig Schilling, father of 17-year-old Justin, also spoke during the sentencing.
Justin was found inside a bathroom stall after Ethan killed him.
"On that day, my life was torn apart," Craig said.
"There are no words that can actually describe the pain... This unfair reality is something I will never get over.
"I still find myself waiting up for him... it's unbearable to know that he's never going to walk through that door."
Craig asked the judge to lock his son's shooter up for the rest of his life.
"My son doesn't get a second chance, and neither should he."

SURVIVOR SPEAKS

Riley Franz, a survivor who was shot during the massacre, told the judge her life will never be the same again.
"I mourn the person I used to be because, although I survived, the original pieces of me didn't," Riley said.
"Now when I sit at a school, I feel anxious checking for all my exits, highly in tune with all movements inside and outside the classroom, flinching at every sound from the walking upstairs to a pencil dropping, and counting down the minutes until I feel that I can breathe again.
"I cannot remember what it's like to feel safe and secure in any space that I occupy.
"I deserved to be a child that day, a student who made it to her class, not someone's target practice."
Avery Bluenstein, a 16-year-old junior at Oxford High School, asked Ethan to look at her multiple times while she gave her impact statement.
However, he continued looking down at the table in front of him and refused to make eye contact.
"I was certain I was about to be murdered," Avery said as she recalled sitting on the floor of her world history classroom during the shooting.
"I am now sentenced to a lifetime of PTSD. I have spent hundreds of hours in therapy offices," she said.
"Whatever punishment the shooter gets, it will not be enough."
She continued: "I will never have an ounce of forgiveness for you."
Several other people who spoke called the shooter a coward.

SECOND TRIAL LOOMS

Ethan, who was 15 when he opened fire at the school, pleaded guilty to one count of terrorism causing death, four counts of first-degree murder, and 19 other charges last year.
He has admitted that he planned and carried out the rampage.
His parents, James and Jennifer Crumbley, are the first set of parents in America to be charged in a mass school shooting.
They will have separate trials in January 2024.
James and Jennifer are accused of ignoring their son's mental health issues and buying him a semi-automatic gun, which he used in the 2021 massacre.
They have both been charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter and have pleaded not guilty.
