Trial to begin in Georgia for the father of the Apalachee High School shooting suspect
"Colin Gray is one of a handful of parents around the country charged with crimes after their children are accused of committing acts of violence. An indictment says Gray committed cruelty to children by giving his son, Colt, access to a gun and ammunition "after receiving sufficient warning that Colt Gray would harm and endanger the bodily safety of another.""
"Investigators have said Colt Gray, who was 14 at the time, carefully planned the Sept. 4, 2024, shooting at the school northeast of Atlanta that is attended by 1,900 students. He wrote step-by-step plans for the assault in a notebook, including diagrams and potential body counts, a Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent testified at a hearing the month after the shooting. With a semiautomatic, assault-style rifle in his book bag, the barrel sticking out and wrapped in poster board, he boarded the school bus,"
Jury selection is set to begin in the trial of Colin Gray, who faces 29 counts including two counts of second-degree murder, two counts of involuntary manslaughter and multiple counts of second-degree cruelty to children related to the Sept. 4, 2024, shooting at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia. An indictment alleges Gray gave his 14-year-old son, Colt, access to a gun and ammunition after receiving warning that Colt would harm others. The shooting killed two teachers and two 14-year-old students and wounded nine others. Investigators say Colt planned the attack, documented step-by-step plans and brought a semiautomatic rifle to the school bus before opening fire in a classroom.
