A 16-year-old named Colt Gray is set to appear in court for a plea and sentencing hearing related to a tragic shooting at Apalachee High School in Georgia nearly two years ago. Gray, who was 14 at the time, is accused of killing two students and two teachers and injuring several others. His trial was moved to Columbia County, and his father, Colin Gray, was previously convicted for providing the weapon used in the attack. The hearing will include testimonies from victims and witnesses, as well as evidence like surveillance footage. Gray faces 55 charges, including murder and aggravated assault. The judge will determine his sentence, as no plea agreement has been reached.
