Each day we learn more about the alleged school shooter Colt Gray.
For legal reasons we have to say “alleged” or “suspected” but that may be changing soon if a new report is correct…
According to multiple reports, immediately after being arrested Colt Gray told officers “I did it.”
Sounds like a confession to me.
Take a look:

Here’s more, from CNN:
Colt Gray, the 14-year-old student accused of killing four people at Apalachee High School Wednesday, told investigators “I did it” while being questioned, Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith told CNN.
The boy was read his Miranda rights and was “still talking,” Smith said.
Colt’s father, Colin Gray, told investigators this week that he had purchased the gun used in the killings as a holiday present for his son, CNN previously reported.
CNN is working to determine whether Colin Gray has legal representation. When reached by phone on Thursday, the Barrow County Public Defender’s Office could not confirm they were representing and had no comment.

And from the NY Post:
Suspected school shooter Colt Gray uttered three chilling words — “I did it” — to investigators soon after he was arrested for the slaughter of two classmates and two teachers earlier this week, the local sheriff said.
The baby-faced 14-year-old, who is set to make
his first court appearance Friday after being slapped with murder charges, allegedly made the admission while being interrogated in the aftermath of the bloodshed at Apalachee High School in Georgia, Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith told CNN.
Gray is accused of unleashing a barrage of gunfire with an AR-15-style rifle at his school in Winder, just outside Atlanta, on Wednesday morning — killing four and wounding nine others.
Georgia school shooting suspect Colt Gray, 14, is set to make his first court appearance Friday after being slapped with murder charges.
He was taken into custody just minutes after allegedly gunning down his victims, authorities said.
The teen suspect, who has since been charged as an adult, is set to appear by video from a youth detention facility for the proceedings at the Barrow County courthouse.
His initial court appearance comes a day after his father, Colin Gray, 54, was hit with a string of charges tied to the shooting, including allegedly giving the boy the weapon used in the massacre as a Christmas gift last year.
