Life in Prison for a Teenager: What Does It Mean for Us? The sentencing of Colt Gray, the 16 year old who killed two students and two teachers at Apalachee High School in Georgia, has sparked a mix of emotions.
While some see the judge's decision to sentence Gray to life without parole as a measure of closure for the victims' families, it raises important questions about the societal factors that contribute to such tragedies.
The court found that Gray was obsessed with mass killers and reveled in the attention he received for staging a massacre at his school.
