Georgia dad guilty in son’s alleged school shooting

What happened

A jury in Winder, Georgia, Tuesday convicted Colin Gray of second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter for allowing his son access to a gun he allegedly used to kill two students and two teachers at Apalachee High School in September 2024. Prosecutors showed that Gray, 55, gave his son the rifle for Christmas and refused entreaties to lock it up as Colt Gray, then 14, showed signs of deteriorating mental health, including bouts of anger and an obsession with school shooters.
