…I absolutely think that the sentence was correct for this case and did ‘fit the crime’…because it wasn’t just about whether such an horrific loss of life could have been prevented, it was also enabling of the tragedy to happen…Ethan was too young under state law to own the weapon that his parents ‘gifted’ him anyway…there were no ‘home/owning restrictions’ either, placed on his handling of the weapon…it wasn’t locked away and he was able to just freely take it into his school…they may have lost their freedom for many, many years…but 4 families have lost their children forever because it was their actions that made it possible for their son to take those lives…against all law, they placed a death weapon into the hands of a child who had displayed very concerning behaviour through his young life…
