SUMMARY: Tonight, the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office released body camera footage of an interview with Colt Gray and his father, Coen, regarding threats made against a school before the recent deadly shooting. Sheriff Janice Mangum expressed regret that schools didn’t monitor Colt, despite stating the investigation couldn’t substantiate threats. An FBI tip was provided, but the sheriff acknowledged a lack of documentation on alerts to schools. Colt, who denied making threats and had a troubled background, received an AR-15-style rifle for Christmas. His grandfather blamed the father for contributing to the environment that led to the incident.
Newly released body camera footage shows an interview last year between Colton Gray, his father and deputies who received word of threats made online to shoot up a middle school one year before Gray allegedly went on a shooting spree at Apalachee High School.

SUMMARY: At Jenkins High School in Savannah, a violent fight between students escalated when a parent, Tameisha Jackson, intervened, dragging a student to the ground. Jackson’s daughter had been attacked earlier by multiple girls, prompting her to respond after receiving a distress call. The victim, Chataura Baul’s daughter, suffered a concussion and was surprised by the escalation, stating the girls did not know each other. Neither student’s parents were informed by the school about the incidents. Jackson was detained but not booked by police. Due to safety concerns following this and other incidents, Jenkins High moved a scheduled football game to another venue.
