Mother of Plymouth Whitemarsh High youth held for trial:
Michele Cossey, the mother of would be school shooter Dillon Cossey, has been ordered to stand trial on charges of unlawful transfer of a firearm, possession of a firearm by a minor, and child endangerment. If you recall it was revealed after Dillon Cossey was arrested that his mother was the one who bought the firearms for the 14-year-old.
Dillon Cossey came to the attention of police on Oct. 10 after a friend told authorities the teen planned a Columbine-like assault on Plymouth Whitemarsh High School. Cossey, who is in the custody of juvenile authorities, admitting the plot and said his mother bought him the weapons, which led to charges against his mother.
This is the first case that I can recollect where a parent is being charged in connection with a school shooting plot.
