Ethan Crumbley, the teenager accused of gunning down four students and injuring several others at his Michigan high school, is expected to plead guilty to all 24 charges against him on Monday, said David Williams, chief assistant prosecutor in Oakland County.
The charges against him include terrorism and murder.
“There have been no plea deals, no reductions and no agreements regarding sentencing,” Williams added.

A teacher allegedly saw Crumbley researching ammunition in class days before the shooting, and school officials contacted his parents, but they didn’t respond, according to prosecutors. However, his mother, Jennifer Crumbley, texted her son, writing, “lol, I’m not mad at you, you have to learn not to get caught,” according to prosecutors.
Hours before the shooting, according to prosecutors, a teacher saw a note on Ethan Crumbley’s desk that was “a drawing of a semi-automatic handgun pointing at the words, ‘The thoughts won’t stop, help me.’ In another section of the note was a drawing of a bullet with the following words above that bullet, ‘Blood everywhere.'”
Crumbley’s parents were called to the school over the incident, and they said they’d get their son counseling but did not take him home.
