FOLLOWING THIS STORY AND WILL BRING YOU MORE AS WE GET IT. >>> THE TEENAGER ACCUSED OF CARING UP THIS MASS SHOOTING AT HIGH SCHOOL IN GEORGIA MADE HIS FIRST APPEARANCE IN COURT THIS MORNING. SO DID HIS FATHER. THE 14-YEAR- OLD IS CHARGED WITH FELONY MURDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE SHOOTING. HE WAS NOT ASKED TO FORMALLY ENTER A PLEA. POLICE SAID THE SUSPECT USED IN A OUR STYLE FIREARM TO KILL TWO STUDENTS AND TWO TEACHERS ON WEDNESDAY. NINE OTHER PEOPLE WERE INJURED AND TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. BARROW COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY BRAD SMITH SAYS HE EXPECTS TO FILE ADDITIONAL CHARGES ONCE THE OTHER VICTIMS HAVE HEALED PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. THIS MORNING THE JUDGE CORRECTED HIMSELF AFTER MAKING A MISTAKE REGARDING THE PUNISHMENT THE ACCUSED SHOULD FACE. >> I CORRECTLY TOLD YOU THE MAXIMUM PENALTY FOR THE CRIMES FOR WHICH YOU ARE CHARGED, THAT IS CORRECT. EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT YOU ARE UNDER 18 YEARS OLD. SO, I WANTED TO INFORM YOU AND MAKE IT CLEAR TO YOU THAT THE PENALTY FOR THE CRIMES FOR WHICH YOU ARE CHARGED DOES NOT INCLUDE DEATH. IT INCLUDES LIFE WITHOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF PAROLE OR LIFE WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF PAROLE. >> THE LEGEND COMMANDS FATHER ALSO APPEARED IN COURT THIS MORNING. THE 54-YEAR-OLD WAS ARRESTED YESTERDAY IN CONNECTION TO THE SHOOTING. SOURCES TELL CBS NEWS COLIN GRAY BOUGHT THE GUN FOR HIS SON AS A GIFT LAST DECEMBER. THE FATHER IS FACING CHARGES OF SECOND DEGREE MURDER AND CRUELTY TO CHILDREN. THE JUDGE TOLD HIM HE COULD SPEND UP TO 180 YEARS IN PRISON IF CONVICTED ON ALL COUNTS. CBS NEWS IS ALSO SEEING TRANSCRIPTS BETWEEN THE INTERVIEW BETWEEN THE SUSPECT, INTERVIEWERS AND HIS FATHER IN MAY OF LAST YEAR. THE LEGEND GUNMEN WAS INVESTIGATED OVER POSTS HE ALLEGEDLY MADE ON SOCIAL MEDIA TRAINING TO CARRY OUT A SHOOTING AT HIS SCHOOL. DURING THE LOCAL POLICE LINE OF QUESTING THE SUSPECT WAS LIMITED IN HIS RESPONSE. HIS FATHER REPEATEDLY TOLD OFFICERS THE TWO WERE SERIOUS ABOUT GUN SAFETY AND THE ALLEGATIONS AGAINST HIS SON. ANNA SCHECHTER IS HERE WITH ME NOW IN STUDIO 57. SHE IS THE SENIOR COORDINATING PRODUCER FOR THE CRIME IN PUBLIC SAFETY UNIT. GLAD TO HAVE YOU HERE WITH US ON THIS CASE. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ARRAIGNMENT. DID ANYTHING HAPPEN AND WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? >> WE DIDN'T HEAR FROM COLT GRAY TODAY. WE JUST SAW THIS YOUNG BOY, 14 YEARS OLD, WALKING IN WITH THAT BLONDE HAIR THAT YOU SAW. HE SAT THERE MOTIONLESS LISTENING TO THE JUDGE. AFTER THAT WE SAW HIS FATHER, THE 54- YEAR-OLD COME IN AND HE WAS VISIBLY NERVOUS AND UNDER STRESS. HE WAS SHAKING BACK AND FORTH AS HE WAS LISTENING TO THE JUDGE . WE DIDN'T GET ANY INFORMATION ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING TO COME NEXT D.A. BRAD SMITH DID TELL REPORTERS OUTSIDE THE COURTROOM A LITTLE BIT LATER THAT WE CAN EXPECT ON OCTOBER 17th A GRAND JURY TO CONVENE. THAT GETS US INTO THIS TIMELINE. WE DON'T HAVE A PLEA FOR EITHER OF THEM, SO WE ARE ALSO WATCHING FOR THAT. >> LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS INVESTIGATION THAT HAPPENED IN MAY OF 2022 THREE -- 2023. I WANT TO PLAY SOME OF THE SOUND.>> ALL THE SCHOOL SHOOTINGS, THINGS THAT HAPPEN. ARE YOU GETTING PICKED ON AT SCHOOL? >> HE IS. HE IS GETTING PICKED ON AT SCHOOL. >> IS EVERYTHING OKAY?>> THAT'S WHY I KEEP GOING UP THERE. NEVER REALLY KNOW AND I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN TO HIM. >> I READ THE TRANSCRIPT. IN ONE OF THE INTERVIEWS BETWEEN THE OFFICER AND THE FATHER. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE TEEN WAS SAYING THAT A POTENTIAL RATER ON DISCORD, THE SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM, WAS POSING AS THE LEGEND SHOOTER. AND THAT WAS THE ONE MAKING THE THREATS WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THIS MAY 2023 INVESTIGATION AND HOW IT WILL FACTOR INTO BOTH OF THESE CASES? >> IT'S A REALLY IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THIS CASE, BECAUSE IT GOES TO A SPECIFICALLY, SPECIFICALLY THE FATHER AND WHAT THE FATHER KNEW. I THINK THAT LED TO, IN PART, THE CHARGES FILED AGAINST COLIN GRAY. THE FACT THAT HE WAS ALERTED, THAT HIS SON HAD POSTED A SPECIFIC THREAT TO CARRY OUT A SCHOOL SHOOTING, HAD POSTED A PHOTO OF A GUN AND HE DID NOT PROPERLY KEEP WEAPONS AWAY FROM HIS CHILD. IN FACT, SEVEN MONTHS AFTER THAT INTERVIEW HE GAVE HIS SON A GIFT OF NOT JUST A GUN, BUT AN ASSAULT RIFLE. SO, ALL OF THAT WILL PLAY INTO THIS. IF WE LOOK BACK AT THE MICHIGAN CASE, THE CRUMBLY CASE WHERE THE PARENTS WERE CHARGED IN THAT SCHOOL SHOOTING, THE PROSECUTOR SAID THEY WEREN'T CHARGED BECAUSE THEIR SON WAS STRUGGLING WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. THEY WERE CHARGED BECAUSE HE POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THEY WERE AWARE OF HIS POSTS BRAGGING ABOUT A GUN AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SHOOTING THEY DID NOT TELL THE SCHOOL THEY HAD TO ACTUALLY -- THEY HAD AFTER JUST PURCHASED THE GUN USED IN THE
