In the quiet town of Winder, Georgia, a September morning became a reckoning — not only for a fourteen-year-old boy who opened fire inside his high school, killing four and wounding nine, but for his father, who had placed the weapon in his hands. As both now face murder charges, the case asks a question that has long haunted American life: where does a child's act end and a parent's responsibility begin, and whether the law can reach far enough to answer it.
