As the poster child of a dysfunctional family myself, it's really really hard to come out of it in one piece.

No excuse and the parents 10000% for sure need to be punished but on some level, this was a tragedy more than what happened at the school and a tragedy for that entire family living the way they were.
100%
This kid was practically raising himself. It's like he was feral or something. It's so awful, and he never stood a chance. Is it only the sperm donor being charged? I know he's the one who purchased the gun, but I don't understand why the egg donor isn't being charged.
We don't know what she did. It is not against the law to be a drug addict or a bad parent.
I understand that. But he's being charged with cruelty to children, and I wondered if that also related to anything she participated in. She sounds horrible. You think she wasn't complicit in this?
He’s being charged with cruelty to children related to the 8 children his son shot with the gun he bought his son. It has nothing to do with his wife.
My question/thought/etc. is that the mother is still in that house, allowed the gun purchase, put up with it, kept it in the house, all of that. I know he purchased the gun, but they both had it in the house.
The mother was not allowed to contact the father directly and had to go through an intermediary so I doubt she was in the house.
She was too busy dtinking and using drugs.
So is every hobo on the street, it's not a crime. :roll: It's only a crime if she personally purchased the gun and handed it to the kid after being confronted by FBI for the threats kids made. Which is the reason the father was arrested from what I gather.
Bad parenting isn't a crime and isn't even always going to produce a maladjusted adult, not to mention a criminal or a psycho. Many kids who grow up with bad parents turn out not only ok but even achieve success against odds.
If mother didn't know about the kid's tendencies and didn't facilitate weapon procurement she isn't guilty. It's insane to think she is. By same logic every parent of every kid who killed someone should go to prison, why does it matter what the weapon of the murder is? If parenting is the cause of the kid committing a crime like some think, then any kid committing a crime did so because of their parents and parents should be incarcerated.
I personally think going after the father is cruel. He had a wife for a drug addict and it sounds like he was doing his best under the circumstances. The kid denied the allegations and, most importantly, the FBI let it go. There was no reason for the father to think his son was going to do that.

Still better than giving her kid weapons.
I'm not a gun owner and would never buy one for my child. She locked her kids out of the house and sometines in freezing weather. They were crying to get back in. They asked their neighbors for food. She has multiple arrests across 4 states. All of that can take a terrible toll on kids.
And her arrests span 17 years.
The whole family is clearly MAGA, aren't they?

+1. Bad parenting isn’t a crime. Neglect can be but doesn’t sound like the shooter mom had custody. But there was something about how the shooter mom also abused her own elderly mother. Maybe they’re arresting her on other charges. It’s a big stretch to link her to the school killings if they weren’t even in contact. But people are looking for someone to blame so who knows. It’s easier to do that than face the reality that Georgia allows any idiot and their disturbed kids to have access to guns.

Discord account linked to suspect shared plans for mass shooting
The Discord account that the FBI had linked to Colt Gray last year referenced plans for a future mass shooting and shared screenshots of firearms, according to documents obtained by CNN.
“im committing a mass shooting and im waiting a good 2-3 years,” stated the account user, according to screenshots included in an FBI incident report from May 2023 obtained by CNN. “I cant kill myself yet, cause I’m not contributing anything to culture I need to go out knowing I did.”
The account referenced Adam Lanza, the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter, and in separate posts shared a desire to target an elementary school and expressed frustration with the acceptance of transgender people.
Above a photograph of two firearms, the account posted, “I’m ready.”
The FBI tip was shared with the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, which closed the investigation after finding that “the user behind the Discord account that made the threat cannot be substantiated.”
A Discord spokesperson told CNN on Wednesday the platform removed an account “believed to be associated with” Gray in May 2023 for violating Discord’s policy against extremism.

High time to hold the FBI accountable for ignoring Gray.
The local authorities too, or just the FBI? They both investigated and there wasn’t enough evidence to do anything.
We need facts, not your imagination.
