Officials with the Michigan school district where a mass shooting at Oxford High School left 4 dead and 7 injured last year are defending their actions in the face of 2 lawsuits.

One lawsuit alleges that the school was aware of concerns raised over Crumbley's social media posts depicting"violent tendencies and ideations." He allegedly wrote in a post the day before the shooting,"Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. See you tomorrow Oxford,” the lawsuit stated.Throne said in Tuesday's statement the school district was unaware of Crumbley’s social media presence and related posts until after the Nov. 30 shooting.

“They were unable to determine when or how the jar was delivered. No threat or other content accompanied the strange act,” he said.But, one of the lawsuits said Crumbley placed the head of the bird in the bathroom. Further, Assistant Oakland County Prosecutor Marc Keast Throne said that meeting involved the suspect, the dean of students and a counselor, not other high school administrators.
