Original: Jury convicts suspected Georgia school shooter's father of murder

A Georgia jury has convicted the father of a suspected school shooter of murder, holding him criminally responsible for his son's deadly attack. The verdict, reported by multiple ABC affiliates, marks a rare case of a parent being held liable for a child's shooting and is expected to fuel debate over parental accountability and gun access in the United States.

Why now: The verdict is one of the highest-profile tests yet of holding parents criminally responsible for their children's mass shootings.
