(SRN NEWS/AP) – The 14-year-old boy indicted on murder charges in a mass shooting at Apalachee High School pleaded not guilty Tuesday.
Colt Gray’s lawyer filed papers entering the plea after Gray was indicted on Thursday. They waived an arraignment hearing that had been scheduled for Nov. 21.
A Barrow County grand jury indicted Gray on a total of 55 counts as an adult, including murder in the deaths of four people and 25 counts of aggravated assault at the high school. Grand jurors indicted his father, Colin Gray, on 29 counts, including two counts of second-degree murder and two counts of involuntary manslaughter. Both also face multiple counts of cruelty to children.
Colin Gray had not yet entered a plea as of Tuesday and remained scheduled for his own Nov. 21 arraignment.
