Speaker 2: I'm Sidney Sumner, the fourteen year old who killed four

3
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 2: in a shooting rampage at a Georgia high school last month,

4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 2: and his father have now been formally indicted on dozens

5
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 2: of charges. It was almost third period on September fourth

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 2: when a panicked Marcy Gray calls Appalachi High School, begging

7
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,639
Speaker 2: them to find her son, Colt. Minutes before that call,

8
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 2: a school counselor informed Gray that Colt mentioned school shootings

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 2: in their meeting that morning. Marcy Gray also received a

10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: text from her son reading I'm sorry mom. Our friends

11
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 2: at crime Online have more details.

12
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 3: Lilah Siah Wrath, a junior at Appalachi High School who

13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 3: sits next to Colt Gray and algebra, doesn't think much

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,599
Speaker 3: of it when Gray walks out of class at nine

15
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 3: forty five. Gray has a reputation for skipping. Minutes later,

16
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 3: a school administrator comes to the classroom looking for Colt Gray.

17
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 3: The teacher asks if it's Colt or Coulton Gray, who

18
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 3: both left class to use the restroom. Now unsure, the

19
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 3: administrator collects Colton Gray's backpack and asks the teacher to

20
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 3: send both students to the office when they return.

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 4: After the administrator leads a loud speaker announcement asked teachers

22
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 4: to check their emails. Just as Cold Gray reappears outside

23
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 4: the door. Classmate Bree Jones gets up to let Gray in,

24
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 4: but freezes. The teacher tells Brie quickly opened the door,

25
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 4: but the fourteen year old responds, no, he's got a gun.

26
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 4: Gray stands outside the door for a few moments before

27
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 4: someone in the hallway catches his attention. Gray walks to

28
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 4: the classroom next door, where the door is still open,

29
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 4: and starts shooting.

00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,720

31
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,280

38
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 2: Appalachi High School was not aware of that investigation as

39
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 2: it occurred in another county. Despite the alarming visit from police.

40
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: Gray's father, Colin, reportedly gifted Colt an assault style rifle

41
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: for Christmas. Later that year. That gun, intended to foster

42
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 2: a hunting hobby, was used in the attack on Gray's

43
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: teachers and classmates. Colin Gray was arrested within twenty four

44

Speaker 5: to children. These charges stem from mister Gray knowingly allowing

51
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,440

52
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,400

61
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,000

00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,480

Speaker 6: Parents are not expected to be psychic, but these convictions

68
00:03:54,440 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 6: are not about four parenting. These convictions confirm repeated acts

69
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 6: or lack of acts that could have halted an oncoming

70
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,720
