The father of Colt Gray, the teen suspect in the Apalachee High School shooting, appeared in a Georgia courtroom Friday to face multiple charges stemming from this week's deadly attack.

Colin Gray, 54, is being charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of second-degree murder and eight counts of cruelty to children, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Thursday when the agency announced his arrest. The 14-year-old shooting suspect has been charged with four counts of felony murder.

GBI Director Chris Hosey said at a news conference Thursday night that the charges against Colin Gray stem from "knowingly allowing his son to possess a weapon."

Men will literally buy their teenager an assault rifle after the FBI tells them their kid threatened to shoot up a school rather than go to therapy.

Tbf, I don't think moms are especially not guilty of this either. In the past year or so, one was convicted on similar charges on and, if I remember correctly, Adam Lanza got the weapons he used from his mother.

It definitely plays on both sides but if you make the comment too long it loses its punch
