A 14-year-old boy and his father have faced court for the first time charged over the murder of four people following a shooting at a high school in the US state of Georgia.
Colt Gray, was arrested shortly after the shooting on Wednesday at his school, Apalachee High in Winder, near Atlanta. He has been charged with four counts of first degree murder.
The judge clarified that he would not face execution, after first stating the maximum penalty was death.
His father Colin Gray, 54, is charged with second-degree murder, manslaughter and child cruelty – the most severe charges against a parent over a US school shooting.
The judge told him he faced a total of 180 years in prison for his charges.
Neither of the accused requested a bond and no pleas were entered.
