An independent third party will investigate the events leading up to the deadly shooting at a Michigan high school last month. Ethan Crumbley, 15, is accused of killing four people and wounding seven others in a mass shooting at Oxford High School on November 30.
Oxford Community Schools superintendent Tim Throne said in a letter that an initial review showed that the response to the shooter was "efficient, exemplary and definitely prevented further deaths and injuries." Throne said in the letter that he requested the review by an independent security consultant because the "community and our families deserve a full, transparent accounting of what occurred."
"Many of our parents have understandably been asking for the school's version of events leading up to the shooting. It's critically important to the victims, our staff and our entire community that a full and transparent accounting be made," Throne said in a statement Saturday. "We also plan to make regular updates to our families and community."
