SENATOR Menendez CONVICTED: Corruption Verdict Shocks Nation

Menendez, 70, vowed to appeal the verdict, claiming he never violated his public oath or acted as a foreign agent. He did not testify during the nine-week trial but insisted publicly that he was only doing his job as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

CRUMBLEY VERDICT: Parents Face Historic Accountability for Child’s Deadly Actions
— In a landmark decision, a Michigan jury found James Crumbley guilty of four counts of involuntary manslaughter. This verdict stems from the fatal shooting carried out by his son, Ethan Crumbley, at Oxford High School in November 2021. The case marks an unprecedented moment in which parents are held liable for their child’s violent behavior.
James and Jennifer Crumbley faced charges after their 15-year-old son tragically ended the lives of four students and wounded seven others. Keith Johnson, a criminal defense attorney, suggests that this case could establish a new standard for parental accountability when weapons brought into homes result in mass shootings.
The Crumbleys have made history as the first parents to be tried in relation to a mass school shooting incident in the U.S. James was indicted for failing to properly secure his firearm at home and neglecting his son’s mental health concerns.
In line with his wife’s earlier decision during her separate trial in February, James elected not to testify during his trial. Jennifer was also found guilty on all charges and is set to receive her sentence next month.
