School shooting past
Grant was 11 years old in 1998 when he and a friend, Mitchell Johnson, set off a fire alarm and shot at people as they evacuated Westside Middle School in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Grant and Johnson, who was 13 years old at the time, killed four students and a teacher.
Among the victims of the school shooting were 12-year-olds Paige Herring and Stephanie Johnson, 11-year-olds Brittney Varner and Natalie Brooks and teacher Shannon Wright. Families of the victims were awarded $150 million in damages in 2017, according to the AP .
The pair were tried as juveniles in the school shooting. Grant was released from prison in 2007 and Johnson was released in 2005, when they both reached 21 years old.
Johnson and Grant were the only two U.S. mass school shooters who weren't dead or in jail, according to a 2016 report from ABC News .
