Hello, music lovers! Welcome to Why Music Matters, a podcast where we examine the power and influence that music can wield in our lives. I'm your host, musician and music journalist Jeff Miers. Recording today's episode was a real treat for me. Having Alex Khoury, Cody Tarbox, Seth Bykowski and Colin Gray - who are known collectively as Witty Tarbox - in the studio with me, with instruments in hand and plenty of stories to tell, felt like one of those cool spontaneous backyard hangs around the fire-pit. A moment you didn't see coming, but that arrived with an air of familiarity. Like, we've all been here before, even though we just met. As you'll hear, these four musicians are a band of brothers, a group of guys who found their musical tribe when they met each other, and allowed a unique, rootsy, rustic, and rockin' sound to develop organically. They come from different backgrounds, and possess widely varied skill sets, but when they lock in together, something magical that is well beyond the sum of its parts emerges. The band recently travelled to the fabled Dreamland Recording Studios, just outside Woodstock, NY, to track what became their new album, Midnight Sun. We talked about that experience, and the guys performed some of the material that emerged from those sessions live here at 678 Main Studios. What emerged is one of my favorite episodes of the podcast to date. So make yourself comfortable, pour yourself a cold one if you're so inclined, and come hang with us for a little while. Welcome to Why Music Matters, Witty Tarbox…
Two school shootings. Two sets of parents. And a justice system drawing a new line in the sand. From the tragedy at Oxford High School involving Jennifer Crumbley and James Crumbley… to the deadly events at Apalachee High School and the conviction of Colin Gray—a pattern emerges that can't be ignored. Warning signs. Access to weapons. Missed opportunities to intervene. In both cases, prosecutors didn't just focus on the shooters—they went after the parents. The result? Landmark convictions that are redefining parental responsibility, criminal negligence, and gun access in America. Greg Lawson joins me to discuss the chilling similarities, key differences, and the legal precedent that could change how future tragedies are prosecuted. When does responsibility begin—and how far does it go? 3 Gorillas Podcast-https://www.threegorillaspodcast.com/ Website-http://www.theparanormaldetective.com/ Sins of the Parents with Greg Lawson - Mysteries, Mayhem & Merlot Check out the merch, blog, buy the book, and so much more! mysteriesmayhemandmerlot.net WHERE'S WINNIE! - https://linktr.ee/WinnieSchrader Check out Winnie's Linktree for everything Winnie!

Kathy and Jim discuss, the conviction of Colin Gray for second-degree murder and the convictions of James and Jennifer crumbly for manslaughter after they purchased guns for their teenage sons for Christmas and their sons went on to commit mass murder in school shootings.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Breaking verdict in the Colin Gray trial. Guilty on all 29 counts. Second-degree murder. The jury deliberated less than two hours before convicting the first parent in Georgia history for a school shooting committed by his child.Colin Gray gave his fourteen-year-old son an AR-15 for Christmas—seven months after the FBI warned him about online threats Colt made to shoot up a school. No safe. No lock. The rifle stayed in Colt Gray's bedroom next to a shrine of Parkland shooter Nikolas Cruz. Colin Gray claimed under oath he thought the images were "the guy from Green Day."The prosecution built its case on Colin Gray's own family. His daughter testified he asked her to lie to investigators. His estranged wife said she begged him repeatedly to lock up the guns. Weeks before the Apalachee High School shooting that killed two teachers and two students, Colt texted his father: "Whenever something happens just know the blood is on your hands."The morning of the shooting, Colt sent goodbye messages. Colin Gray read them. He didn't call the school. Didn't race to stop anything. Stopped at QuikTrip for a drink on his way home while four people lay dead.Colin Gray took the stand as his only defense witness. He cried. Said he never saw the evil coming. The jury rejected every word—guilty on all counts in under two hours.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta joins us to break down the failed defense strategy, the testimony that sealed this conviction, and what the Colin Gray verdict means for parental accountability nationwide. The Crumbleys were convicted of manslaughter in Michigan. Georgia just raised the stakes to murder.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For many Iranian Americans, the news of the Ayatollah's death marked the closing of a painful chapter that began decades ago when families fled the regime's rise. As the U.S. remains divided over the recent strikes, with the latest FOX News poll showing support split nearly 50-50, many in the Iranian diaspora are reflecting on their past while cautiously hoping for a different future for the country they once called home. Iranian American journalist and activist Tabby Refael and board-certified physician Dr. Houman Hemmati join the Rundown to share why the moment feels “bittersweet,” and what they believe could come next for Iran and its people. In the wake of Colin Gray's conviction for his role in the 2024 Apalachee High School shooting, a critical dialogue has emerged regarding parental accountability, and the preventable nature of gun violence. Board-certified forensic psychiatrist Dr. Dan Bober joins to discuss the tragic combination of adolescent grievances and easy firearm access, the psychological script that leads marginalized youth to idolize past shooters, and his expert advice for parents on identifying warning signs of potential violent intent.

Two trials. Two prosecutions facing serious problems. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke on True Crime Today for comprehensive analysis of the Kouri Richins murder case and the Colin Gray school shooting trial as both reach decisive moments.The Richins prosecution has called over twenty witnesses but can't get past a fundamental problem: the state's own former Chief Medical Examiner testified Eric's death certificate still says "undetermined." Not homicide. Four years later. The drug-chain witnesses contradict each other—one says oxycodone, one says fentanyl. A detective told Carmen Lauber "the goal is to convict Kouri for aggravated murder." Hair follicle tests were never performed. The copperware wasn't tested. The defense has 35 witnesses and may not need them.Colin Gray's family destroyed his defense. His daughter Jenni—14, now in foster care, using a different name—testified he asked her to "cover for him." His wife Marcee said she begged him to lock up the guns and physically tried to take the rifle from Colt. Text messages showed Colt warning "the blood is on your hands" weeks before Apalachee High School.Colin claims he thought photos of Nikolas Cruz in Colt's bedroom were "the guy from Green Day." His wife and daughter both testified he knew exactly who Cruz was. That's a credibility problem a crying defendant can't fix.The morning timeline: Colt's 9:42 a.m. text saying "I'm sorry… it's not your fault." Colin asking what's wrong. Not calling the school. Not leaving work. First shots at 10:22 a.m. Then stopping at QuikTrip for a drink on his way home.Bob Motta analyzes what both defense teams need to accomplish—and whether either case is already decided.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Defense attorney Bob Motta delivers extended analysis on two trials exposing fundamental problems with their respective prosecutions. Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke break down the Kouri Richins case in Utah and the Colin Gray trial in Georgia—both reaching moments that could determine outcomes.The Richins prosecution built a case on Carmen Lauber's testimony about obtaining fentanyl. But Robert Crozier—her alleged source—testified he only sold oxycodone because "everybody was scared of fentanyl." The medical examiner won't call it homicide. A detective told Lauber "the goal is to convict Kouri for aggravated murder." Critical tests were never performed: hair follicles, copperware, even the kitchen wasn't searched the night Eric died. The defense has 35 witnesses waiting and may have already established reasonable doubt without calling one.The Gray trial put a father on the stand to defend himself—alone. No experts. No character witnesses. Just Colin crying, saying he never saw it coming. His family said otherwise. Daughter Jenni testified he asked her to "cover for him." Wife Marcee said she begged him to lock up the guns. Colt texted "the blood is on your hands" weeks before the shooting.The morning timeline won't leave the jury's mind: Colt's 9:42 a.m. text saying "I'm sorry." Colin asking what was wrong but not calling the school. First shots at 10:22 a.m. Colin stopping at QuikTrip for a drink instead of racing to Apalachee High.Bob Motta explains why Colin took the stand when the evidence against him was so damaging, what that tells us about how the defense assessed their case, and what they must accomplish in closing arguments. He also identifies what the Richins prosecution absolutely needs to prove—and whether they're running out of time.Two cases. Two families destroyed. Two juries deciding who's responsible.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two trials reaching critical moments. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke on Hidden Killers Live for extended analysis of the Kouri Richins murder case and the Colin Gray school shooting trial.In Utah, the defense hasn't called a witness yet—and may have already won. Cross-examination exposed that the medical examiner still won't call Eric Richins' death a homicide. Carmen Lauber admitted a detective told her "the goal is to convict Kouri for aggravated murder." Hair follicle tests that could have determined if Eric was a chronic fentanyl user were never performed. The copperware allegedly used for the Moscow Mules was never tested. The kitchen wasn't searched the night Eric died.The prosecution's drug witnesses are contradicting each other. Robert Crozier says he sold oxycodone because "everybody was scared of fentanyl." Lauber says she got fentanyl. The toxicology showed no oxycodone in Eric's system—only fentanyl. If Carmen provided oxy but Eric died of fentanyl, where did the fatal dose come from?In Georgia, closing arguments are happening in the Colin Gray case. He took the stand as his only witness—and his family contradicted nearly everything he said. His daughter testified he asked her to "cover for him." His wife said she begged him to lock up the guns. Text messages showed Colt warning "the blood is on your hands" weeks before Apalachee High School.The morning timeline is damning: Colt's 9:42 a.m. apology text. Colin asking what's wrong but not calling the school. First shots at 10:22 a.m. Colin stopping at QuikTrip instead of racing to the scene.Robin Dreeke brings FBI behavioral expertise.

Guilty. All 29 counts. Second-degree murder.Colin Gray is now the third parent in American history convicted for a school shooting committed by their child—and the first to catch murder charges, not just manslaughter. A Georgia jury needed less than two hours to decide his fate.Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers to unpack the verdict, the failed defense, and whether this case just redrew the line on parental accountability nationwide.Prosecutors called Colin Gray "the one person who could have prevented" the Apalachee High School massacre. They showed the jury everything: the FBI warning he ignored, the "shrine" to Parkland shooter Nikolas Cruz in his son's bedroom, the text where Colt told his father "the blood is on your hands" weeks before killing four people.Colin's daughter Jenni—now in foster care, using a different name—testified her father asked her to cover for him. His wife Marcee testified she begged him to lock up the guns. Body cam footage captured Colin saying "God, I knew it" minutes after the shooting.His defense? He took the stand alone. Cried. Said he never saw it coming. Said Colt was "a good kid" with "a whole other side I didn't know existed."The jury didn't buy it.Bob Motta breaks down what went wrong, what this verdict signals to prosecutors across the country, and whether Colin Gray's conviction is the new floor—or still the exception.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A history making verdict out of Georgia today: it’s the first time the state has held a parent criminally responsible for the actions of his child. A jury took less than 2 hours to decide the fate of 55-year-old Colin Gray, convicted of 4 counts of 2nd degree murder and manslaughter along with dozens of other charges. Gray has been held responsible for the shooting deaths of 2 high school students and 2 teachers after police say his 14-year-old son, Colt, opened fire on his classmates and teachers. Prosecutors say Gray gave Colt, who he knew was emotionally troubled, an assault rifle for hunting, on the Christmas before the mass shooting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One defense attorney breaking down what prosecutors face—and where their cases are vulnerable.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping investigation, the Kouri Richins murder trial, and the Colin Gray prosecution in this comprehensive breakdown.The Guthrie investigation is in trouble. Day 23 with four hundred investigators and forty thousand tips—but no arrest, no vehicle, DNA stuck for potentially a year. Sources say the massive operation is scaling back. Bob explains what that signals and how every delay becomes defense ammunition.The Richins trial started this week with both sides laying out competing narratives. Carmen Lauber—the housekeeper who claims she sold Kouri fentanyl—has immunity, but her supplier recanted. Eric's friends will testify he said "I think my wife tried to poison me." The 15-minute gap before 911. The orange notebook. Bob analyzes every pressure point.The Colin Gray prosecution pushes legal boundaries. Second-degree murder instead of manslaughter—180 years versus the Crumbleys' 10-15. FBI warning in May 2023. "God, I knew it" on body cam. Georgia has no safe storage law.

Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta delivers expert analysis on three high-profile cases: the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping investigation stalling at day 23, the Kouri Richins murder trial in week one, and the Colin Gray prosecution that could reshape parental liability law.The Guthrie case has problems. Four hundred investigators, forty thousand tips—no arrest. DNA evidence stuck for potentially a year. Sources say the investigation is scaling back. Bob breaks down what that signals and how a defense attorney would exploit every weakness.The Richins trial is underway with powerful evidence on both sides.

Georgia has no safe storage law. A 14-year-old can legally possess a long gun. Colin Gray didn't technically break any gun laws by giving his son an AR-15 for Christmas. So how is he now facing 180 years on second-degree murder charges?Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down the legal strategy prosecutors are using against Colin Gray—and whether it can survive scrutiny.The facts are bad. The FBI visited Colin Gray's home in May 2023 after his son made threats on Discord. Body cam footage shows Gray telling deputies "God, I knew it" within minutes of the Apalachee High School shooting. He also said he'd been trying to get his son into counseling. Bob analyzes how those statements play with a jury—and whether they're admission of knowledge or a father's horror.The Crumbleys set a precedent in Michigan with manslaughter convictions—10 to 15 years each. Georgia went further with second-degree murder. Colin Gray faces 180 years. That gap shows how Georgia views this case—and what it could mean for parents nationwide.Karen McDonald—the prosecutor who got the Crumbley convictions—said her reaction to Colin Gray being charged was "rage." She said the Crumbley case was never meant to open the floodgates. Legal experts warn this precedent could be applied unevenly, potentially disproportionately against families without resources. Bob addresses whether there's any limiting principle.The kid's history is chaotic: DFCS involvement, school-hopping, swastikas, searched "how to kill your dad" on a school computer, missed his entire eighth-grade year. Does all that make the father look negligent—or create reasonable doubt he could have predicted this?Bob breaks down whether we're watching the rules change in real time.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Within minutes of the Apalachee High School shooting, body camera footage captured Colin Gray telling deputies, "God, I knew it." He also said he'd been trying to get his son into counseling. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down what those statements mean for Colin Gray's defense—and whether they're devastating admission or desperate father's guilt that a jury might understand.The Colin Gray trial isn't just a murder case—it's a stress test for parental liability law. Prosecutors charged second-degree murder, not manslaughter. The Crumbleys set a precedent in Michigan. Georgia is determining how far that precedent stretches.The facts are brutal. The FBI visited Colin Gray's home in May 2023 after his son made threats on Discord. He bought his son an AR-15 for Christmas. The defense says he tried to get help for a troubled kid in a broken system. Bob analyzes how those facts cut both ways.Here's the legal challenge: Georgia has no safe storage law. A 14-year-old can legally possess a long gun. Colin Gray didn't break any gun laws. So how do you charge murder when the underlying conduct was legal? Bob explains the prosecution's theory and the defense's counterargument.The sentencing exposure is staggering—180 years versus the Crumbleys' 10-15.

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers Live to break down two of the most consequential trials happening in America right now—both asking the same fundamental question from different angles.Kouri Richins goes to trial February 23rd for the alleged fentanyl murder of her husband Eric. The defense has landed blows: recanting drug source, excluded experts, severed charges, intimidation allegations against the lead detective. But the prosecution has a mountain—alleged Valentine's Day poisoning attempt, housekeeper testimony about "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches about lethal doses, a jail letter allegedly coaching testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts including second-degree murder in Georgia. Prosecutors allege he armed his 14-year-old son with an AR-15 despite an alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit over school shooting threats, a Christmas gift of the rifle, a text allegedly saying "the blood is on your hands," and a bedroom prosecutors describe as a shrine to the Parkland shooter. When officers arrived, Colin allegedly said two words: "I knew it."Eric Faddis walks through both sides of both cases live. The defense's strongest cards in each courtroom. The prosecution's most devastating evidence. The legal theories that make each case unique—and the accountability question that connects them.One case alleges direct action. The other alleges criminal negligence. Both ask jurors to determine when knowing becomes culpable, when enabling becomes murder, when failure to act crosses into criminal liability.Live analysis. Two trials. One veteran prosecutor on what conviction actually requires.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two murder trials happening simultaneously—and both are asking jurors to define the boundaries of accountability.Kouri Richins stands trial February 23rd for allegedly poisoning her husband Eric with fentanyl. The defense has scored pretrial victories: a recanting drug source, excluded expert witnesses, severed financial charges. But the prosecution's evidence remains formidable—an alleged prior Valentine's Day attempt, a housekeeper testifying about fentanyl requests and "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches about lethal doses, a jail letter allegedly scripting family testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts in Georgia including second-degree murder for allegedly arming his son despite years of warnings. The prosecution's evidence: an alleged 2021 "how to kill your dad" search, an FBI visit over shooting threats, the Christmas gift of the AR-15, a text allegedly reading "the blood is on your hands," and what prosecutors describe as a bedroom shrine to the Parkland shooter. When officers arrived, Colin allegedly said, "I knew it."Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down both cases with the eye of someone who's stood at that table. For Richins: How does the defense exploit a recanting witness? How does the prosecution overcome pretrial losses with volume? For Gray: How does Georgia law support charging a parent for a child's actions? What proves someone "knew" versus "should have known"?Different crimes. Different legal theories. Same fundamental question: When does knowing become culpable? When does failure to act become murder?Eric Faddis gives his honest assessment of where both trials are headed.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins True Crime Today for a deep dive into two of the most significant criminal trials happening in the country — the Kouri Richins fentanyl murder case and the Colin Gray parental accountability trial.The Richins case begins February 23rd with the defense riding pretrial wins: a recanting drug source, excluded prosecution experts, and severed financial charges. But the state has an alleged prior poisoning attempt, Carmen Lauber's expected testimony that Kouri requested fentanyl and "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches allegedly about lethal doses and luxury prisons, forged insurance documents, a jail cell letter allegedly coaching family testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.In Georgia, Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts including second-degree murder. Prosecutors say he gave his 14-year-old son an AR-15 despite alleged FBI warnings, school shooting threats, and a text from Colt allegedly saying "the blood is on your hands." Prosecutors allege a Parkland shrine sat in the bedroom. When officers arrived, Colin allegedly said, "I knew it."Faddis analyzes every angle of both cases — defense strategy, prosecution evidence, legal theories, and his honest assessment of where each is headed.#KouriRichins #ColinGray #EricRichins #ColtGray #FentanylMurder #SchoolShooting #TrueCrimeToday #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis takes on two of the biggest criminal cases in the country in one comprehensive interview — the Kouri Richins fentanyl murder trial and the Colin Gray parental accountability case.In the Richins case, the defense has won real pretrial battles: a recanting drug source, excluded experts, severed financial charges, and witness intimidation allegations against the lead detective. But the prosecution has an alleged prior poisoning attempt, a firsthand witness who says Kouri requested fentanyl and "the Michael Jackson stuff," damning Google searches, forged insurance documents, a jail cell letter allegedly coaching testimony, and more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in Eric's system.In the Colin Gray trial, prosecutors presented what they allege is years of warning signs — an alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit over school shooting threats in 2023, the alleged Christmas gift of an AR-15, a text allegedly about blood on his hands, a reported Parkland shrine, and Colin's alleged words when officers arrived: "I knew it." The defense says Colt hid his plans. The prosecution says the alleged evidence was visible inside the home.Faddis breaks down both sides of both cases, explains the legal theories at play, and gives his honest assessment of where each trial is headed.#KouriRichins #ColinGray #EricRichins #ColtGray #FentanylMurder #SchoolShooting #EricFaddis #ProsecutorAnalysis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Colin Gray is on trial for second-degree murder because prosecutors say he armed a child he allegedly knew was dangerous. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the state's case against the father of the Apalachee High School shooter — and explains why the defense may be fighting an unwinnable battle.The prosecution's timeline spans years of alleged warning signs. An alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad." An FBI visit in 2023 over school shooting threats, with investigators reportedly instructing Colin to restrict gun access. A Christmas gift of an AR-15-style rifle seven months after that visit, according to prosecutors. And in August 2024, Colt allegedly texted his father, "Whenever something happens, just know the blood is on your hands," and asked him to buy 150 rounds of ammunition.The defense claims Colt led a double life. But prosecutors allege the evidence was inside the home — a reported shrine to the Parkland shooter, reported voices, alleged violence toward his mother, and prescription medication without medical oversight. When officers arrived at the Gray home, Colin allegedly said two words the prosecution may never let the jury forget: "I knew it."With 29 felony counts, up to 180 years exposure, roughly 20 juvenile victims testifying about being shot, and a legal theory that goes beyond what convicted the Crumbleys, Faddis gives his honest take on where this is headed.#ColinGray #ColtGray #ApalacheeHighSchool #SchoolShooting #SecondDegreeMurder #ParentAccountability #TrueCrimeToday #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The trial of Colin Gray is underway in Barrow County, Georgia — and the prosecution's opening statement laid out a timeline that may be the most detailed case for parental accountability ever presented in an American courtroom. Gray faces 29 felony counts, including second-degree murder, in connection with the September 4, 2024 shooting at Apalachee High School that killed four people and wounded nine others. Prosecutors allege he gave his son Colt Gray the AR-style rifle used in the attack as a Christmas gift — months after FBI-flagged threats were traced to their home and deputies warned him to keep his son away from firearms.The evidence prosecutors have outlined includes a 2021 internet search by Colt for "how to kill your dad," a shrine to Parkland shooter Nikolas Cruz found in the teenager's bedroom, a counseling request where Colin described his son as volatile, reports that Colt told his father he was hearing voices days before the attack, and a text from Colt to Colin that allegedly read: "Whenever something happens, just know the blood is on your hands." When law enforcement arrived at Colin's home after the shooting, he reportedly said "I knew it" before anyone told him what had happened.The defense argues Colin was a struggling single father whose son deliberately concealed his plans. They've told jurors a mental health appointment was scheduled for the day after the shooting. The prosecution counters that this isn't about prediction — it's about a father who was warned repeatedly and allegedly kept an assault rifle in his son's bedroom anyway. This trial builds on the Crumbley precedent but with significantly more severe charges. If convicted on all counts, Colin Gray faces up to 180 years in prison. We break down the full case and what it means for the future of parental accountability in school shootings.#ColinGray #ColtGray #ApalacheeHighSchool #ApalacheeShooting #TrueCrimeToday #SchoolShootingTrial #ParentalAccountability #CrumbleyPrecedent #WinderGeorgia #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Prosecutors say Colin Gray was warned by the FBI, by law enforcement, and by child welfare that his son was a potential threat — and his response was allegedly to buy the kid an AR-15 for Christmas. Now he's facing 29 felony counts including second-degree murder. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis dismantles the case piece by piece.The alleged warning signs prosecutors presented span years. An alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad" on a school computer. FBI involvement over school shooting threats in 2023, according to prosecutors. Then, according to the state, the Christmas gift of a SIG Sauer M400 seven months later. By August 2024, Colt allegedly texted his father that "the blood is on your hands" and asked him to buy ammunition.The defense argues Colt hid his plans. But prosecutors allege the bedroom shrine to the Parkland shooter, the reported voices, the alleged violent episode with his mother, and Colin's own alleged words when officers arrived — "I knew it" — tell a different story. Faddis explains why the Georgia legal framework charging cruelty to children as the basis for second-degree murder may be even more effective than the Crumbley manslaughter model, and he gives his honest assessment of Colin Gray's chances with roughly 20 juvenile victims testifying about being shot.#ColinGray #ColtGray #ApalacheeHighSchool #SchoolShooting #SecondDegreeMurder #FBIWarning #ParentAccountability #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Colin Gray is on trial for second-degree murder — not because he pulled a trigger, but because prosecutors say he put the weapon in his son's hands and ignored every warning that followed. His son, Colt Gray, allegedly walked into Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia on September 4, 2024 and opened fire, killing two students and two teachers and wounding nine others in the deadliest school shooting in Georgia history. Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts and up to 180 years in prison.The prosecution's case is built on a timeline that is difficult to look away from. An FBI-flagged threat investigation in 2023 where deputies warned Colin to keep his son away from firearms. A Christmas gift months later — a Sig Sauer M400 AR-style rifle, along with ammunition, tactical accessories, and unrestricted bedroom access. A shrine to the Parkland shooter found in the teenager's room. A counseling request where Colin described his son as volatile and angry. A text from Colt to his father weeks before the shooting that allegedly read: "Whenever something happens, just know the blood is on your hands." And when law enforcement arrived at Colin's home after the shooting, prosecutors say he met them in the garage and said two words without being prompted: "I knew it."This case follows the landmark Crumbley convictions in Michigan — the first time parents were held criminally responsible for a mass school shooting carried out by their child. But Colin Gray's charges go further. Second-degree murder, not manslaughter. A legal theory built on cruelty to children resulting in death. If a Georgia jury convicts, it won't just continue the Crumbley precedent — it will fundamentally escalate it. This episode breaks down the case, the timeline, and what this trial means for parental accountability in America.#ColinGray #ColtGray #ApalacheeHighSchool #ApalacheeShooting #SchoolShooting #ParentalAccountability #CrumbleyPrecedent #WinderGeorgia #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
