Mother's Warning Before School Shooting
A mother alerted school officials about her son's alarming behavior just half an hour before a mass shooting occurred at Appalachian High School in Winder, Georgia. Marcy Gray reached out to a school counselor, expressing her concerns after receiving troubling messages from her 14-year-old son, Colt, a key figure in the incident. Although school administrators took her call seriously, visiting a classroom where he was expected to be, confusion arose due to another student with a similar name that misled their efforts. Ultimately, while they acted on the warning, questions remain about whether a more immediate lockdown could have mitigated the shooting’s impact.
