The mother of an accused school shooter wrote an open letter to former President Trump after he was elected in 2016 detailing her son's struggles in school.
In the November 11, 2016 post on her blog, Jennifer Crumbley, 43, wrote that her 10-year-old son, Ethan, had been struggling in school, and blamed Common Core and illegal immigrants for her son's apparent difficulty with math.
He would be charged as an adult five years later for a shooting at Oxford High School on November 30 that left four teenagers dead, and many others injured.
In her 2016 letter, Jennifer thanked the former president for standing up for her right to bear arms, and praised him for his candid demeanor, before asking the then president-elect to end Common Core, a set of educational standards for teaching and testing English and mathematics.
'You see Mr. Trump, I need you to stop Common Core,' Jennifer wrote, noting: 'My son struggles daily and my teachers tell me they hate teaching it but the[y] have to. Their pay depends on these stupid f****** test scores.
'I have to pay for a tutor, why?' she continued, 'because I can't figure out fourth-grade math.
'I used to be good at math,' Jennifer noted, adding that she cannot afford a tutor for her son and 'in fact, I sacrifice car insurance to make sure my son gets a good education and hopefully succeeds in life.'

In the long-winded open letter on her blog, Jennifer begged the former president to put an end to Common Core, a set of teaching and testing standards for English and mathematics, and questioned why her son could not get free tablets as she alleged the children of illegal immigrants get
At that point, Jennifer started complaining about 'illegal immigrant parents' and their children at a school where her mom teaches.
'Most of their parents are locked up,' Jennifer wrote. 'They don't care about learning and threaten to kill my mom for caring about their grades.'
'Do you realize Mr. Trump that they get free tutors, free tablets from our government so they can succeed?' she continued. 'Why can't my son get those things, do we as hard-working Americans not deserve that too.'
She concluded her rambling letter by saying: 'Mr. Trump this is why I voted for you.
'I see the change that we so desperately need. I see jobs coming back, people having to work for their handouts, money going to [those] who really deserve it.
'I believe YOU are the president who will make these things happen.
'I have NEVER had this much belief in one person,' she noted, 'and you are it.'
Jennifer signed the long-winded letter 'A hardworking Middle Class Law Abiding Citizen who is sick of getting f***** in the a** and would rather be grabbed by the p****,' a nod to the former president's now infamous line about being famous.
The Sun reports that the letter was later shared to Facebook by her husband, James, who commented: 'My wife can be spot on. Sometimes.'

But now, five years later, the couple is exercising their right to remain silent as their son, Ethan Crumbley, faces charges for shooting up his Michigan high school and killing four students.
Deputies rushed to the school around 12:50pm on Tuesday as more than 100 calls flooded 911 dispatchers with reports of a shooter. They arrested the gunman, 15, in a hallway within minutes of their arrival with the help of an on-scene school resource officer.
The sophomore student put his hands in the air as deputies approached, police said.
Authorities claim Crumbley, now 15, fired 30 rounds at the school - emptying two 15-round magazines. A third was found on school property, and he reportedly had more in his pockets.
He reportedly shot his victims at close range, wounding them in the cheeks, jaws, shoulders and necks, after opening fire in the hallways of the school.
A video of the attack, according to assistant Prosecutor Marc Keast, showed Crumbley enter a bathroom at the school with a backpack before he emerged with a gun.
'At that point, he deliberately aimed the gun at students and began firing at students. After students started running he continued down the hallway pointing the gun and firing (at them) and firing in classrooms and at students who were unable to escape,' he claimed.
Video posted to social media also appeared to show Crumbley trying to convince would-be victims that it was safe to emerge from hiding as he roamed through the halls of the high school.
'Sheriff's office,' the boy says. 'You can come out.'
Students exchange glances as one whispers 'he said it's safe to come out.'
But the teacher responds: 'We're not taking that risk. The gunman shouts back something inaudible before calling his classmate 'bro' and in that sickening moment, classmates began jumping out a window, realizing the self-professed cop was actually the shooter.
Four students were killed in the shooting, including Tate Myre, 16, Hana St Juliana, 14, and 17-year-old Madisyn Baldwin. Justin Shilling, 17, succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday morning.
Swarms of police officers swooped in and arrested the suspected gunman within five minutes
