Michigan judge to decide whether Oxford High School shooter gets life in prison or chance at parole

A decision will be made on Friday regarding whether the teenager who killed four students at Oxford High School in Michigan will be sentenced to life in prison or given a chance for parole in the future. The shooter was 15 at the time, and while first-degree murder carries an automatic life sentence for adults in Michigan, the judge has the option of choosing a shorter term. The shooter's mental health has been a topic of debate, with experts providing conflicting opinions. The actual sentence will be imposed on December 8, and survivors and families will have the opportunity to share their experiences with the judge.
