The attorneys for the father of the Apalachee High School shooting suspect will argue in court on Thursday to move their client to a new venue.
Colin Gray and his attorneys filed the motion last month to move the trial out of Barrow County.
The motion claims that “community feeling is strongly set against him” and would violate his right to a fair trial.
The hearing is scheduled for Thursday afternoon. Channel 2 Action News will have a reporter at the courthouse for the hearing.
