A Georgia jury has delivered a guilty verdict on all 29 charges against a father implicated in the aftermath of a high school shooting, where his son is accused of killing four individuals.

At 54, Colin Gray exhibited no visible reaction when the jury announced its decision on Tuesday. After deliberating for less than two hours, they concluded that he held responsibility for the tragic events at Apalachee High School.

His son Colt Gray, 14, is accused of carrying out the massacre on September 4, 2024 with an AR-15 style rifle that was given to him as Christmas gift by his father. 

His son, Colt, who is still awaiting his own trial, is accused of opening fire within the school premises, resulting in the deaths of two students, Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo, both 14, as well as two educators, Richard Aspinwall, 39, and Cristina Irimie, 53. The incident also left nine others wounded.

During the trial, Colin was visibly emotional upon watching footage of his son moving through the school corridors before the shooting. Ultimately, he was convicted on charges including two counts of second-degree murder and two counts of involuntary manslaughter.

Additionally, the court found him guilty of 20 counts of cruelty to children and five counts of reckless conduct.

As the verdict was announced, Colin slumped in his chair. Following the reading, deputies handcuffed him while he conversed with his attorney at the defense table.

He will be sentenced at a later date. Colin could spend a maximum of 180 years in prison.

On Thursday, Gray covered his eyes and cried as he watched surveillance footage of his son walking the halls of the school while concealing the large gun behind a white poster board and backpack. 

The clip showed the teenager entering the school with the gun as students and staff walked right beside him.

He was seen making his way down the hallway before entering a classroom and fidgeting around in his seat and looking down at his cellphone.

Colt then walked into a bathroom with his backpack, where he texted his mother, Marcee Gray, ‘I’m sorry mom.’ Gray then called the school about her son.

Resource officers went into the restroom and escorted another student out who had the same name as Colt, leaving the teen free to allegedly carry out the shooting, according to Sheriff Jud Smith.

Afterward, Colt, wearing a white T-shirt, khaki pants and yellow gloves, appeared to limp as he continued to carry the bag with the gun inside.

Another camera angle showed Colt looking through the door window of a classroom, holding the rifle.
