Michigan‘s Attorney General – who is ultimately in charge of the criminal investigation into the MSU shooting – has revealed her own sons attend the school.
Dana Nessel’s twin sons Zach and Alex, 20, attend the college where gunman Anthony McRae opened fire last night, shooting dead three kids on campus and injuring five more before killing himself.
Nessel is now investigating how McRae, a convicted felon who was previously caught with a loaded handgun in 2019, was able to obtain the weapon he used to kill the students.
In an interview today with MSNBC, she lamented the fact that she couldn’t even ensure the safety of her sons, despite being the ‘top law enforcement official in the state’.

In an interview today with MSNBC, Nessel lamented the fact that she couldn’t even ensure the safety of her sons, despite being the ‘top law enforcement official in the state’.
‘I can’t believe as a parent in America you can’t move your child into college without seriously having to wonder whether they’re going to make it through the next four years without being the victim of a mass shooting.
‘That was a concern I had when I moved my kids into school a year and a half ago and I couldn’t make it through a year and a half without an incident like this happening and I’m the top law enforcement official in this state.
‘I couldn’t prevent it from happening.
‘What hope do any of us have if we don’t have legislatures who are willing to do something?
‘We have to start loving our kids more than our guns,’ she said.
It’s unclear if her boys were on campus or living off-site.
Nessel has spoken in the past of giving birth to the boys weeks early, after having to abort their triplet to save their life.

Nessel’s office is now investigating how McRae – who killed himself – was able to obtain his weapon with a felony conviction on his record.
‘One of the things that we’re going to need to know is how did he get that weapon?
‘And can we put laws in place here in Michigan to ensure that a person, such as himself, who’s ineligible to own a firearm can never access one?
‘I expect to see a number of new laws put into place in short order, whether or not that would have prevented this particular offense from happening.
‘I think the investigation will tell us that,’ she said.
McRae’s father has described him turning ‘evil’ and ‘mean’ following the death of his mother, Linda, from a stroke in 2020.
