Georgia lawmakers won't seek student database after deadly high school shooting

Georgia lawmakers will not create a statewide database for student violence threats after a deadly shooting at Apalachee High School.
The legislation includes measures like requiring police to report threats to schools and implementing an anonymous reporting system statewide.
Concerns remain regarding the potential stigmatization of students from accusations without due process.
The amended bill shifts prosecution responsibilities for serious charges from juvenile to adult courts for students aged 13 to 16.
