Teen Texted Family, 'If I Don't Make It, I Love You All' During School Shooting

William Cariker is a sophomore at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, who witnessed a gunman burst into his classroom and started shooting. William, 16, testified in the criminal trial of the suspect's father today (Tuesday, February 17) at the Barrow County Courthouse in Winder. William said he hid behind a table and texted his family he loved them. 01:36 "I believe he banged on the door a bit, then he kicked down and started shooting." 02:04 "Did you try to make contact with anyone in your family?" "Yes." "Who did you contact?" "My mom, dad, siblings, my grandma, my aunt." "Did you do that with a text message?" "Yes." 03:32 "And you sent a text message that says, "There's a school shooting. If I don't make it, I love you all.' Is that right? Is that what you said?" "Yes." "Okay." "And what did you mean by that text?" "I wanted to know that if I did die, that they would know that I loved them." "And were you afraid for your life that day?" "Yes." Background: A gunman killed two students and two teachers at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, on September 4, 2024. Eight students and one teacher were injured. The victims were Mason Schermerhorn, 14; Christian Angulo, 14; Richard Aspinwall, 39 and a math teacher and defensive coordinator for the school's football team; and Cristina Irimie, 53 and a math teacher. Colin Gray's son, Colt Gray, is awaiting trial on 55 charges, including counts of murder and aggravated assault. The father's 29 charges include involuntary manslaughter, second-degree murder, reckless conduct and cruelty to children. Prosecutors say he gave his son the rifle used in the shooting as a Christmas gift, despite being told by law enforcement to keep guns away from him. ****************************************************************************** Subscribe to Legal Affairs and Trials with Meghann Cuniff: https://www.legalaffairsandtrials.com...
