The parents of the suspected shooter at Oxford High School in Michigan, who allegedly tried to flee, pleaded "not guilty" to manslaughter charges at their arraignment hearing Saturday morning.

An Oakland County judge set the bond for James and Jennifer Crumbley at $500,000 each at the hearing and stipulated that they must surrender their weapons to authorities. During the hearing, their defense attorneys disputed claims that the couple was trying to flee, saying that their clients intended to attend the arraignment on Saturday of their own volition.

FUGITIVE PARENTS OF MICHIGAN SCHOOL SHOOTING SUSPECT ARRESTED IN DETROIT

"Mr. Crumbley, as with Mrs. Crumbley, is not a flight risk. He is not a danger to the community," said defense attorney Mariell Lehman. "There's no risk that they're going to flee prosecution. They were never fleeing prosecution."

Should the defendants post bond, they will need to wear GPS trackers, the judge said.

Michigan authorities designated the Crumbleys as fugitives when they disappeared Friday and did not appear at an arraignment scheduled for that afternoon. They were arrested in Detroit later that day.

They are charged in connection to their son Ethan Crumbley allegedly opening fire at the school Tuesday, killing four and wounding seven. The parents gave him free access to their weapons and ignored signs that he was planning the shooting, prosecutors allege.

Crumbley, 15, will be tried as an adult. He faces life in prison if convicted.
