BARROW COUNTY, Ga. — Barrow County court documents show a trial date has been set for the father of the teen accused in the deadly Apalachee High School shooting.

The scheduling order, signed April 29, sets Colin Gray’s trial for Sept. 8, 2025.

Colin Gray is accused of providing the weapon used by his son, Colt Gray, in the Sept. 4, 2024, shooting that left two students and two teachers dead. Others where hurt. Colin Gray is facing a total of 29 charges, including murder in the second degree and cruelty to children in the second degree. 

Earlier this month, a judge decided that jurors in Colin Gray’s upcoming trial will not be selected from Barrow County, citing concerns about fairness in the wake of last year’s deadly shooting. The decision came after his attorneys filed a motion asking for a change of venue. A new trial location has not yet been determined.

Colt Gray also filed a motion requesting a change of venue for similar reasons. His attorneys claim changing the location is necessary to ensure that the teen has a fair trial before an impartial jury. 

“Gray will not be able to receive a fair trial in Barrow County due to the Extensive pre-trial publicity and the overall state of feelings of Barrow County residents towards him,” the filing stated. 

A decision has not been made on Colt Gray’s motion.
