Father of Apalachee High School Shooting Suspect Granted Bond Amid Community Outrage
On Tuesday, Colin Gray, the father of the Apalachee High School shooting suspect, was granted a $500,000 bond by Barrow County Superior Court Judge Nicholas Primm, despite prosecutors seeking a bond exceeding $1 million. Gray faces 29 charges, including two counts of second-degree murder, for allegedly allowing his son, Colt Gray, access to a firearm, which was used in the September 4 shooting that resulted in the deaths of two students and two teachers. The case is notable as it marks a rare prosecution of a parent in connection with a school shooting, with both father and son facing serious charges related to the tragic incident.
