Mom of alleged Georgia school shooter Colt Gray once threatened to kill husband and wrote troubling FB posts about him: report

The mother of alleged Georgia school shooter Colt Gray once described herself as victim of abuse and boasted online that her kids were “thriving” — around the same time authorities visited her son to probe an alleged threat he made to shoot up his school.

Marcee Gray’s social media includes posts detailing her former husband’s abusive upbringing, and their own apparently tumultuous relationship, in the months before she proclaimed she’d left him.

“I packed myself and my babies up and relocated to my hometown in south GA. We are all good and my kids are thriving,” Marcee, who has her own rap sheet dating back nearly two decades, wrote in May 2023 on LinkedIn.

The announcement of her departure from the family home came after Marcee, 43, wrote about husband Colin’s childhood as one of “severe physical abuse.”

“From my husband’s first memory, all he knew was abuse. …I’m talking everything from getting a broken arm at age 8 while he was totally asleep to having a barstool crack his skull open,” she wrote on Facebook in November 2022.

“I still rub my fingers across the scar/gouge on his scalp and think to myself ‘How?! I can’t even comprehend it!’…that is what substance abuse can do. To a mama, a daddy, a spouse, a sibling….you name it and it will reach them.”

“I know it’s hard to understand from the outside looking in. Everyone in my and his family couldn’t understand why I stayed as long as I did,” she wrote in a separate post, adding, “Ultimately it was my own decision.”

In another social media missive, Marcee wrote, “No one but me understands the pain that my husband lives with every single day. Every single person in his life has hurt or betrayed him.”

“And I truly believe that the Lord sent me to him because no one else was strong enough to stay by his side through thick and thin. I’m not about to give up on him now… We are just taking a break,” she continued.

A month later, the couple, who had three kids, called it quits.

“Finally separated from my abusive husband of almost 14yrs… Hardest sh-t I’ve ever done but we’re in good hands,” she wrote on LinkedIn.

Her emotive posts seemed to mask Marcee Gray’s own chaotic life.

Her arrest record includes charges for drug possession, aggravated battery, theft and criminal trespass and she once “threatened to kill her husband” during an incident, sources told The Daily Mail.

Gray also “tied up” her elderly mother and left her for 24 hours, the outlet reported without providing further details.

Marcee Gray’s most recent jail stint was in April in Barrow County where she was arrested on suspicion of possessing methamphetamine, fentanyl and muscle relaxants. 

She also faced charges of aggravated battery, theft by taking, criminal trespass, false imprisonment and failure to appear in January, in nearby Fitzgerald County.

An arrest warrant obtained by the Daily Mail indicated Gray had a glass jar containing methamphetamine, a “baggie” containing fentanyl, another “baggie” containing multiple muscle relaxants, and a glass pipe “used for the ingestion of narcotics.”

Gray was sentenced to five years in jail, spending the first 46 days behind bars and the rest on probation, the outlet reported.

Gray could not be reached by The Post Saturday, either by phone or at her address in the tiny town of Fitzgerald, about three hours south of Atlanta.

A Nissan Rogue was in the driveway, but no one answered the door. An arrest warrant issued for Marcee last year noted she concealed the identity of her Nissan Rogue vehicle by affixing a tag for a Nissan Kick.

While Marcee was crowing about her new beginnings, Colt was being visited by local cops for allegedly threatening on Discord to shoot up his middle school.

Colin Gray told the police said he had recently separated from his son’s mother, and that “she took his younger two” kids.  Colt apparently stayed with him.

Colt, 14, faces four counts of felony murder for Wednesday’s shooting while his father — accused of giving his son the AR-15-style rifle used in the massacre — has been hit with four counts involuntary counts of second-degree murder, and eight counts of cruelty to children, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

Colin Gray told a sheriff’s investigator that his son wasn’t the type to threaten violence.

“He’s not a loner, Officer. Don’t get that,” the father told police, adding, “He just wants to go to school, do his own thing and he doesn’t want any trouble.”

He also said he didn’t know anything about Colt making threats, saying, “I’m going to be mad as hell if he did, and then all the guns will go away.”
