Fox News
Michigan school shooter Ethan Crumbley's father, James Crumbley, called himself a "martyr" fighting for "freedom" in jail calls. He also appeared to threaten prosecutor Karen McDonald.
"I kind of feel like a martyr," James says in one jail call. "We're martyrs, you know, without the whole dying aspect of it. Because I don't know a better word to use. So I use the word ‘martyr.’ But we're martyrs to make sure that this doesn't happen to anybody else in America again. To make sure that nobody like that dumb, stupid b---h [Oakland County Prosecutor] Karen McDonald." "I feel like I joined the military and I'm going to fight for my country." "Karen McDonald, you're going down, and you better be scared." Audrey Conklin is a digital reporter for Fox News Digital and FOX Business.

He adds later on that he and his wife are "going to fight the good battle for everybody else."
