Ga. Shooter’s Mom: School Warned Early About Violence

The mother of Georgia school shooting suspect Colt Gray told ABC News on Tuesday that teachers had informed her that her son had made references to violence at the school, even earlier than when she called to notify administrators the day of the shooting.

Gray, 14, was arrested and charged with four counts of felony murder after killing two children and two teachers in a shooting Sept. 4 at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, just outside of Atlanta. Nine others were injured. His father, Colin Gray, also has been charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter for allegedly permitting his son to have access to the weapon used in the shooting, two counts of second-degree murder and eight counts of cruelty to children.

Marcee Gray told ABC News the last text she received from her son read, “I’m sorry, Mom.” She said her husband also received texts from their son that morning that “basically said the same thing,” adding that another text said, “you’re not to blame for this.”
