Oxford Shooter’s Mother Guilty, Usher Coming to Detroit, Snoop Dogg Suing Walmart

Hear Shannon's Scoop Monday through Friday at 6:50 AM and 8:50 AM on The Morning Bounce

I tend to keep The Scoop a little bit lighter, but there was definitely a historic verdict made here in Michigan yesterday. Jennifer Crumbley, the mother of Oxford High School shooter, Ethan Crumbley, faced the jury for her verdict. The names of the victims were read and she was convicted on four counts of involuntary manslaughter for the deaths of four students.

Craig Schilling, the father of one of the victims, Justin Schilling, spoke after the verdict and said, "It was a long time coming, but it's definitely a step toward accountability. It's not really about winning or losing. You know, it's about making it apparent that this has to stop."

I believe I read that Crumbly is facing 15-years on each count and also a $30,000 fine. Her son Ethan, the actual shooter, pled guilty and is serving life without parole. It was a historic case because this is the first time a parent has been tried and convicted for the actions of their child's school shooting. The case against Crumbley's father, James, is still awaiting trial.

Our thoughts are definitely with the families and I'm glad that they have now got some justice. Read more about the verdict here.. https://1051thebounce.com/2024/02/06/jennifer-crumbley-mom-of-oxford-school-shooter-found-guilty/

Usher is everywhere. I think it was Monday that he was all over my timeline with his shirt off. Well, not only are you going to see Usher perform at the big game on Sunday, you can catch his show at Little Caesars Arena on September 12th.

He's undoubtedly going to be playing music from his new album, Coming Home, which drops on Friday. Tickets go on sale this Monday, February 12th, at 10:00 AM. That, of course, is the day after the Super Bowl, so that makes sense. He's a smart guy. They say expect VIP packages to be made available to fans as well, and premium tickets, meet and greets, and photo ops with Usher.

And make sure you're listening to The Morning Bounce the rest of this week because Mean Jean & I will be giving away tickets before you can buy them each morning at 8:20 AM with Finish the Lyric.

A while ago I talked about Snoop Dogg releasing his own breakfast cereal with Master P, because Master P has his hands on everything. Well, they're taking Walmart and Post Foods to court over because they said that they have sabotaged the success of the cereal by preventing it from reaching customers through deceptive practices.

They claim that there's pictures of them intentionally holding boxes of Snoop cereal in the stock rooms of the stores marked with no location coding, preventing them from being placed on store shelves.

So, they've just been hiding in the back. But who is it? Is it employees trying to buy them for themselves? We'll have to see what happens with that case because that's a huge hindrance for them. You don't wanna mess with Snoop, especially when it comes to his money. Master P either.

While every day in a relationship is important to a couple, there’s one special day that falls on February 14th every single year. You know what I’m talking about. It’s Valentine’s Day. You know when that little guy named Cupid makes an appearance with his bow and arrow of love. It’s a day when we go out of our way to express our love and affection for our partners. We plan special dates, give gifts, and express meaningful words in a card.

Now, I can’t be the only person in a relationship that recognizes that things can come become routine and life can get in the way. Even on this special day, you end up at the same restaurant that you typically go to or life’s been busy so you’re stopping at a store last minute for a gift. It happens to the best of us!

But, it doesn't have to be this way. You can have a unique Valentine’s Day date that you and your partner will cherish for years to come. Planning for a unique date shows your partner that you have put an effort to make sure that the day is special and meaningful for them. Plus, it’s just a great way to have fun and build your bond by sharing new experiences together.

So, give your loved one a break from the typical dinner and movie date. Add a little excitement to your relationship and check out one of the fun and adventurous date ideas below. I know I plan on taking my husband to the Detroit Distillery Tour. I had the opportunity to visit the facility the other day to learn about their new flavored Paczki's vodka. They told me about the tour. He loves whiskey, which is their main liquor, so he’s going to remember this forever.

I had the opportunity to visit the distillery. They explained the tour to me which I thought was a really great date idea if your partner likes whiskey. They have two tours available. They happen on Saturday's and another more extensive tour happens on Thursdays. Book your tour here. The tour is located at The Whiskey Factory at 1000 Maple St, Detroit, MI 48207
