In a shocking turn of events, the father of the Georgia school shooting suspect has been charged with murder after admitting to giving his teenage son the semi-automatic rifle used in the deadly attack. Colin Gray, 54, gifted the AR-15-style firearm to his son, Colt, despite previously assuring the FBI that the 14-year-old did not have unsupervised access to weapons.
The tragic incident took place in Winder, Georgia, where Colt Gray opened fire at his school, killing four people and injuring several others. This devastating act has raised questions about gun control and the responsibility of parents in preventing such tragedies.
The actions of Colin Gray have sparked outrage and disbelief, as he knowingly provided his son with a weapon that was used to commit a heinous crime. The FBI’s previous investigation into online threats made by Colt should have raised red flags about his access to firearms, yet he was still able to obtain a deadly weapon.
The community of Barrow County is now left mourning the lives lost in this senseless act of violence, while grappling with the difficult questions of how to prevent such tragedies in the future. As the investigation unfolds and details emerge about the events leading up to the shooting, one thing remains clear: action must be taken to prevent further loss of innocent lives at the hands of gun violence.
