James and Jennifer Crumbley, parents of the Oxford High School suspected shooter, have each pleaded not guilty to four counts of involuntary manslaughter via zoom in 52-3 District Court.
The judge set a $500K bond cash surety with no 10% for both James and Jennifer.
The defendants are facing a max penalty of 15 years and a $7,500 fine for each count.
A probable cause conference is set for Dec. 15 at 1:15 p.m. and a preliminary hearing is scheduled for Dec. 22.
Police say James and Jennifer Crumbley were taken into custody on Detroit's east side overnight. They were arrested near St. Paul and Concord.
During a news conference early Saturday morning, Detroit Police Chief James White says there is video of one of the suspects going into the building. They were arrested in a room inside a commercial building in the area. White says they have information that the couple was helped in getting into the building and that will be part of the investigation. When asked, White says someone let them into the building and they did not break in.
White also says they have identified the person who helped them and that person will face charges. White says whatever those charges will be will be determined by the office of Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy.

The couple's lawyers, Shannon Smith and Mariell Lehman, released a statement prior to arraignment:
Quote:According to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, Detroit police received a 911 call from a business owner who saw the couple's car in his parking lot, on Bellevue near Jefferson in Detroit. He also reported seeing a woman near the car. She ran from the scene when he called 911."We understand that our clients were apprehended last night although we fully intended to turn them in first thing this morning for arraignment, contrary to the misinformation that has been rampant in the media.Unfortunately, this case presents the most unimaginable tragedy for every single person involved, including every member of the community. While it’s human nature to want to find someone to blame or something to point to or something that gives us answers, the charges in this case are intended to make an example and send a message. The prosecution has very much cherry- picked and slanted specific facts to further their narrative to do that.We intend to fight this case in the courtroom and not in the court of public opinion. We know that in the end the entire story and truth will prevail."
