Shooting Suspect's Father Arrested, Charged With Murder

Colt Gray's father, Colin Gray, has been arrested and is being charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of second-degree murder and eight counts of cruelty to children. This is based on allegations that the father knowingly provided the AR style rifle to his son. As you may have read or heard already, Colt Gray had been investigated last year for supposedly making online threats of a school shooting culminating in an interview between local sheriff's deputies and both Colt Gray and his father. Nevertheless, the father apparently gave Colt Gray an AR rifle in December 2023 as a present. Authorities believe it is this rifle that was used in the shooting.

  1. Well, that was a lapse of judgement.

    1. Right? If he had reason to believe that his son had made online threats of a shooting, why give him a rifle and unfettered access to it?
