In a shocking revelation, it has been discovered that the warning call received by Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, prior to a deadly shooting, originated from the shooter's mother, Marcee Gray.
This information, initially reported by Gateway Pundit, has been substantiated by text messages released by the Washington Post.
According to Gateway Pundit, the school was alerted to an impending danger on the morning of the shooting, with the caller stating that the high school would be the first of five targets. However, the school's response to this warning was seemingly inadequate, leading to a tragic loss of life.
The text messages, as reported by the Washington Post, reveal that Marcee Gray had contacted the school to warn of an "extreme emergency" involving her 14-year-old son, Colt Gray. Call log data supports these claims, showing a 10-minute phone call from Marcee's phone to the school approximately half an hour before the shooting began.
In one of the text messages, Marcee stated, "I was the one that notified the school counselor at the high school. I told them it was an extreme emergency and for them to go immediately and find [my son] to check on him."
Annie Brown, the shooter's sister, further revealed that a counselor informed Marcee during the call that Colt had been discussing school shootings earlier that day. Despite this alarming information, school administrators failed to locate Colt due to a name mix-up, leading to the confiscation of the wrong student's bag just minutes before the shooting.
In a subsequent interview with the Post, Marcee confirmed her warning call to the school but declined to elaborate on what prompted it. Expressing her remorse over the incident, she said, "I am so, so sorry and cannot fathom the pain and suffering they are going through right now."
The school's lackluster response to the warning call raises serious concerns about its commitment to student safety. The failure to correctly identify Colt under such critical circumstances is deeply troubling.
Adding to the controversy, it has been revealed that the FBI was aware of threats made by Colt about a school shooting a year before the incident. Despite confirming the presence of firearms in Colt's home, the FBI closed the case after the then 13-year-old denied posting the threatening messages.
The agency's official statement reveals that they did not maintain surveillance or notify local authorities about the incident. Instead, they alerted the school counselors, who were the ones to receive Marcee's warning call.
The question remains: why was Colt not located immediately following the warning call? The more information that emerges about the incident, the more it appears that a lack of proactive measures and effective communication may have contributed to this tragic event.
