The Crumbley couple made their first court appearance today.

They are being represented by Shannon Smith.

Smith previously represented convicted rapist and former gymnastics coach Larry Nassar.

She said it was not a conflict of interest to represent both parents.

Prosecutor Karen McDonald revealed she had a “staggering” amount of evidence against the couple.

It consists of over 500 pages of documents and 40GB of data.

The defense has asked for time to review all of the information.

The case has been adjourned until February 8, 2022.

They are each facing four counts of involuntary manslaughter, one count for each student their son killed.
