By Johnny Edwards Published September 24, 2024 Local schools claimed they were never given the early warning about suspected Apalachee High School shooter Colt Gray after he and his father were questioned about violent school threats made on a Discord server in 2023. A captain with the Jackson County Sheriff's Office told the FBI that the message had been passed along. FOX 5 I-Team's Johnny Edwards dug deeper. In brief: Jackson County Sheriff Janis Mangum acknowledges no early warning was conveyed to schools about Colt Gray, who later became a suspect in a school shooting. The sheriff's investigation, including a review of records and communications, found no proof that warnings about Gray's threat to "shoot up a school" were forwarded by former captain Dale Dillow's team. Captain Dillow, no longer with the department following his dismissal for unrelated misconduct, had reported to the FBI that Colt Gray denied making threats but claimed that schools were notified of the potential danger. Sheriff Mangum expresses regret over the failure to inform schools about Colt Gray’s threat and is uncertain about the effectiveness of a warning, had it been issued. Despite Captain Dillow's claim that "area schools aware" after a disturbing threat by Gray was investigated, no supporting evidence of such warnings communicated to schools has been uncovered. JACKSON COUNTY, Ga. - The Jackson County sheriff says that what could have been an early warning about the 14-year-old suspected Apalachee High School shooter, Colt Gray, never reached area schools.
