Colin Gray Trial Moves from Barrow County Amid Concerns of Jury Bias in Apalachee High School Shooting Case

• Share on:

Colin Gray, the father of the Apalachee High School shooting suspect, will not be tried by a Barrow County jury, as a judge ruled on Thursday due to potential bias in the community. The trial is expected to be relocated, with options including moving to another judicial circuit or bringing in a jury from elsewhere, as both the defense and prosecution expressed concerns about impartiality due to extensive pre-trial publicity. Gray faces 29 charges related to the incident, including two counts of second-degree murder, after his son, Colt Gray, was indicted for the September 4 shooting that resulted in four deaths and multiple injuries.
