New information has emerged about the tragic school shooting at Apalachee High School.
According to a report from The Washington Post, the mother of the accused shooter called the school just minutes before the incident to warn staff about her son’s behavior.
The report states that the mother, Marcee Gray, spoke to a school counselor about half an hour before the shooting occurred. Text messages obtained by The Post reveal that she urged the counselor to locate her son immediately and check on him, expressing concerns over his recent comments about a school shooting that morning.
In response, a school administrator entered the suspect’s math class around that time, but a misunderstanding arose involving another student with a similar name. The administrator mistakenly confiscated a backpack belonging to the other student. Neither the accused shooter nor the student with the similar name was in the class at the time. Minutes later, the shooting began.
