- Michigan shooting suspect's parents said they didn't know their son planned to open fire on classmates, according to AP.
- James and Jennifer Crumbley asked for their bond to be lowered to $100,000, according to AP.
- Shannon Smith, their attorney, told the court they are willing to wear an ankle monitor.
The Oxford, Michigan, school shooting suspect's parents say they didn't know their son had planned to open fire on classmates last month, their attorney said in court documents reviewed by the Associated Press.
Their attorney, Shannon Smith, filed court documents in the Oakland County District Court on Wednesday requesting to have the couple's bonds lowered from $500,000 to $100,000, according to filings seen by AP.
"The Crumbleys, like every parent and community member, are devastated by the school shooting," Smith and co-counsel Mariell Lehman said in a court filing reviewed by the Associated Press. "The last thing they expected was that a school shooting would take place, or that their son would be responsible."
Smith told the court her clients would wear electronic ankle monitors if they were released from jail.
The Crumbleys' attorneys did not immediately return Insider's request for comment.
James and Jennifer Crumbley are charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter and are accused of making a gun accessible to their 15-year-old son before the shooting at Oxford High School on November 30.
Four students were killed in the shooting and six others, including a teacher, were injured.
Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald previously said the gun the suspect is accused of using in the shooting was a gift from his parents.
McDonald also said that the Crumbleys were called to the school to talk about concerning notes their son was seen writing in class.
The Crumbleys did not take their son home after the meeting and instead told school officials to send him back to class, McDonald said.
McDonald said that after Jennifer Crumbley heard about the shooting, she texted her son, "Don't do it."
Smith said in court documents seen by AP that Jennifer Crumbley did send the text message to her son the day of the shooting, but said the text was sent over concerns her son would harm himself.
The Crumbleys have pleaded not guilty in the case.
Their son has been charged as an adult with four counts of murder, one count of terrorism, and other crimes.
