The Price of Ignorance: Colin Grey’s Role in His Son Colt's Deadly Use of Firearms

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, attorney Eric Faddis discusses the troubling issue of school shootings and the legal measures that can help prevent them, focusing on the case of Colt Gray, a 14-year-old shooter, and his father, Colin Gray. Faddis addresses the broader implications of the Red Flag Law in Colorado, which allows courts to temporarily remove firearms from individuals deemed a threat. He emphasizes the delicate balance between taking preventative action and respecting constitutional rights. Faddis also highlights the need for earlier interventions when warning signs arise, such as threats made online, and how authorities often struggle to act decisively due to legal and procedural constraints. The conversation reflects on how laws, like the Red Flag Law, offer potential solutions but come with challenges in implementation and potential for abuse. They conclude that while no single solution is apparent, collaborative efforts between parents, schools, and authorities could help prevent future tragedies.
