Georgia School shoots suspect Colt Gray for the first time in court

Foal Graythe suspected gunman accused of shooting four people at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia appeared in court this morning… and it was a shocking sight to see a 14-year-old charged with such heinous crimes .

The alleged gunman arrived at the Barrow County Courthouse in the rural Georgia town Friday morning with his attorney wearing an olive green jumpsuit… two days after authorities said he opened fire at the schoolkilling students Mason Schermerhorn And Christian Angulo, and teachers Richard Aspinwall And Christina Irimie. Nine others were injured.

The judge read out the four murder charges against Gray and then asked if he could read and write in English – to which he replied in the affirmative.

The judge said that given the seriousness of the charges and the nature of Gray’s alleged conduct, he will be tried as an adult.

Gray faces the maximum penalty for each count… life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Gray’s attorney did not request bail, but his lawyer suggested he might do so at a later date.

Gray was before on the radar of law enforcement after he allegedly made a threatening threat on the social media site Discord about a school shooting. He was later banned from the site for violating the platform’s anti-extremism policy.

Local officials have yet to reveal whether a motive has been identified. Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith called the school shooting “a bad thing.” It is believed Gray acted alone, but officials are still investigating the case.

Gray’s father, Colin Gray, was arrested Thursday night… and charged with 4 counts of involuntary manslaughter, 2 counts of manslaughter and 8 counts of cruelty to children.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation revealed that Colin Gray bought his son the AR-15 used in the shooting for Christmas… and this was after the FBI visit to their home. By the way, it is illegal in Georgia for a minor to own a firearm.
