let's bring in our guest for this hour
trial attorney Trey Gober Trey that is
compelling for the state who's going to
argue that on the day of the incident
the shooting that these parents did not
lock away the gun now that moment
obviously wasn't the day of the shooting
but it could be an example for this jury
of what was
common exactly the biggest question for
the jury will be why should we hold
accountable apparent for this really
tragic uh event the the murders of these
fellow students by by the their son and
the defense the I'm sorry the
prosecution is doing an amazing job of
lining that out with these witnesses
that you know in in fact you you you
start to feel feel sorry for the shooter
himself because you can see that he's
asking his parents for help and his
parents refuse to to offer that help and
then they give access to the gun to the
to their son uh and so you can
absolutely see the prosecution coming
together here the prosecutors is doing
an excellent job of presenting this case
to the jury yeah the text messages say a
lot the defense argued in James
crumley's wife's case that he didn't
know or they couldn't prove saying that
the state couldn't prove that that's
actually what the shooter meant when he
said I was reaching out for help and it
doesn't prove that the parents knew he
wanted help but it's certainly probative
and compelling evidence there inside of
the courtroom uh we do have to squeeze
in a break tray so stand by we will have
more from that witness on the stand and
those messages that reveal what was
going on inside of the crumbly household
next all right we are reaching the top
of the hour let's bring in trial
attorney Trey Gober who's been watching
this trial play out we're seeing those
Instagram photos Trey of the school
shooter before he was a school shooter
posting these photos how does that go
into the case against parents for what
he's
posting I think generally the jury has
an expectation that reasonable
responsible parents are you know staying
in touch with their their children
paying attention to what they're posting
paying attention to who they're hanging
out with what they're doing what they're
saying with other people and so the fact
that this information can be found by
these investigators just goes further to
show that it it's not believable that
the defendant in this case the shooter's
dad just didn't know or couldn't have
know there were so many warning signs
there was it was so obvious for any
objective person that's paying attention
and that's ultimately the standard
that's going to have to be proved by the
state that is an objective parent given
the same circumstances would have acted
differently and I think the state's
doing a very good job of laying that out
for prosecution Trey how do you feel
about this being the father versus the
mother we've got two separate trials
mother went first she was already
convicted in your mind is this just a a
a drawn out way to get to another
conviction because it's the same
evidence essentially or are there some
caveats in your mind some differences
between how a jury May view the mother
and her responsibility and the
father I I think the case against the
father is stronger than the case against
mother every defendant has their right
to a day in court uh so we can't fault
the defendant for you know wanting to
take this to trial every jury is
different every case is different uh so
it's not a foro conclusion that we'll
get a conviction but I think the case
against the father is stronger all right
well I appreciate your Insight on that
Trey young thank you so much uh for
being with us this hour and for Lending
your expertise coming up Matt Johnson is
picking up our coverage Matt I will hand
it over to you you
