Colt Gray Pleads Guilty To All 55 Counts In Apalachee Shooting
Colt Gray admitted guilt to all charges after prosecutors said the shooting left four people dead and 23 others wounded.
- On Friday, July 24, 2026, Colt Gray pleaded guilty to all 55 counts in the Apalachee High School shooting, entering a non-negotiated plea in Barrow County Superior Court to avoid trial.
- Investigators testified that Gray, then 14, carefully plotted the attack in a notebook with step-by-step instructions, while authorities discovered a "school shooter shrine" in his bedroom dedicated to Nikolas Cruz.
- Family members urged Barrow County Superior Court Judge Nicholas Primm to impose life without parole; Breanna Schermerhorn, whose son Mason was killed, stated "Those decisions were his and his alone."
- Judge Primm will resume sentencing next week to determine Gray's parole eligibility, weighing further arguments from prosecutors and the defense in the non-negotiated plea process.
- Colin Gray, Colt's father, was convicted earlier this year of 29 charges including second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter; his sentencing hearing is scheduled for the coming week.
