Summary
- Teen accused of 2024 shooting will change plea July 24.

Colt Gray, a teenager charged in a 2024 shooting that claimed four lives at Apalachee High School, is expected to alter his plea in court this month. Gray, who was 14 at the time of the incident, faces 55 charges, including murder and aggravated assault, after allegedly injuring nine others.
Initially pleading not guilty, Gray will appear for a non-negotiated plea hearing on July 24, followed by a sentencing hearing. This means he is changing his plea without a prior agreement with prosecutors. He faces a potential 180-year prison sentence. His father, Colin Gray, has already been convicted on multiple charges related to the shooting.
