The vice presidential debate on Tuesday night featured a question about a Michigan tragedy and the decision to charge a high school shooter's parents with involuntary manslaughter for providing him access to a gun.

The Oxford shooting and the context of sentencing the shooter's parents led to Republican VP candidate JD Vance and Democrat VP candidate Tim Walz getting asked, is it a good idea or not?

The Oxford school shooter's parents, James and Jennifer Crumbley, were the focus of a key question at the vice presidential debate.

While Tim Walz blamed guns for some of the incidents, JD Vance countered the problem being illegal guns in the wrong hands.

Two candidates who hope to be the country’s next vice president fielded a question during Tuesday night’s debate that referenced the criminal convictions of James and Jennifer Crumbley, the parents of the Oxford High School shooter.
