Highland Park shooting suspect appears virtually in court on 7 murder counts
The 21-year-old Crimo is charged with 7 counts of murder for the Independence Day attack

By Rebecca Rosenberg , Michael Ruiz | Fox News

Highland Park Fourth of July parade shooting suspect Robert Crimo III appeared in an Illinois courtroom Wednesday via video from jail and learned he will be held without bond after allegedly opening fire on a crowd in the affluent suburb outside Chicago.

Crimo, 21, allegedly fired more than 80 rounds at a crowd of spectators Monday morning in a suburb of Chicago, killing seven people and injuring dozens, before fleeing the scene dressed as a woman, authorities said.

According to prosecutors, Crimo confessed to shooting at innocent paradegoers from a rooftop perch. He allegedly admitted to dressing up in a woman's clothing and covering his tattoos in makeup to try and conceal is identity. After he fled the rooftop, according to prosecutors, his Smith & Wesson M&P 15 rifle fell out of his bag in a back alley.

Authorities said they recovered the rifle, three 30-round magazines and 83 spent shell casings. And prosecutors said police were familiar with him and able to identify him when they saw his face on surveillance and cellphone video.

Prosecutors filed a petition for the suspect to be held without bond and Judge Theodore S. Potkonjak agreed. Crimo faces up to life imprisonment.

After an hours-long manhunt, Crimo was arrested Monday evening while driving in his mother's Honda Fit in Lake Forest, Illinois.

In announcing the charges Tuesday, Lake County State's Attorney Eric Rinehart told reporters that Crimo will be hit with dozens of additional charges centered around each victim.

"These are just the first of many charges that will be filed against Mr Crimo. I just want to emphasize that," the prosecutor said.

Highland Park Shooter Is Neither MAGA Nor Antifa–Just Crazy, Former Friend Says
By Debra Heine
July 5, 2022

Robert Crimo, the Highland Park shooting suspect, is neither a conservative Trump supporter, nor a left-wing antifa radical, according to a friend who claims to know him. “He was an isolated stoner who lost touch with reality,” Bennett Brizes—a college student who claims he “made music” with Crimo from 2015 to 2018—wrote on Twitter.

According to the Washington Post, analysts who have studied Crimo’s online postings have not been able to find “a clear political or ideological motive” thus far.

Crimo, 21, is accused of killing at least six and wounding more than 30 in a shooting rampage on the Chicago suburb 4th of July parade. Investigators say he shot at parade-goers from a rooftop as the community celebrated Independence Day. He dressed in women’s clothes to help conceal his identity, police said.

“During the attack, Crimo was dressed in women’s clothing and investigators do believe he did this to conceal his facial tattoos and his identity and help him during the escape,” Chris Covelli, spokesperson for the Lake County Major Crimes Task Force, told reporters on Tuesday. Police believe Crimo pre-planned this attack for several weeks.

Highland Park gunman Robert Crimo contemplated second shooting: authorities

Quote

LAKE COUNTY, IL — The alleged Highland Park Fourth of July gunman confessed to slaughtering innocent parade-goers and then “seriously contemplated” shooting up another celebration in the hours that he was on the run, authorities revealed Wednesday.

Robert E. “Bobby” Crimo III, 21, allegedly had another rifle and approximately 60 rounds on him when he fled Highland Park after allegedly killing seven and injuring more than 40 others on Monday.

He then drove towards the Madison, Wisconsin area in his mother’s car — but turned back to Illinois, where he was later nabbed, after deciding he wasn’t fully prepared to pull off the second shooting, according to authorities.

“While he was driving and he located this celebration occurring in the Madison area, he contemplated another attack with a firearm he had in his car,” Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli told a news conference.

Pentagram? I feel sorry for the this animals siblings but the parents should be sued for every penny they have and prosecuted (if possible) for aiding and abetting their lunatic son. They should have pressed charges when he threatened to kill them, maybe he would have gotten some help maybe he wouldn't have been able to legally buy guns. And I have to figure that when they say the father helped him buy the guns they mean the father payed for the guns and ammo, otherwise how could an unemployed psychopath afford them?

You really need to read what you posted.

After announcing that the Highland Park shooter will be charged with 7 counts of murder, the State Attorney Eric Rinehart praises red flag laws and calls for a nationwide assault weapons ban both of which are currently on the books in Illinois and Highland Park and failed.

Highland Park parade shooting suspect 'contemplated' a second attack, officials reveal
The gunman allegedly fired more than 70 rounds into a crowd of spectators at a Fourth of July parade outside Chicago

By Rebecca Rosenberg | Fox News

Accused Highland Park parade shooter Robert Crimo III "contemplated" a second attack on revelers in Wisconsin before he was arrested, officials revealed Wednesday at a press conference.

"While he was driving, he located this celebration occurring in the Madison area, he contemplated another attack with the firearm he had in his car, "Lake County Major Crimes Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli told reporters Wednesday.

The remarks came minutes after Crimo, 21, made his first appearance in an Illinois courtroom on seven counts of murder for the Fourth of July mass shooting.

Judge Theodore Potkonjak ordered Crimo held without bail.

After Crimo allegedly opened fire on paradegoers Monday morning from a rooftop, killing seven and wounding dozens more, he fled disguised as a woman and drove to Wisconsin in his mother's car.

He still had AR-15 assault style rifle and approximately 60 rounds left but hadn't done enough research to pull off the second shooting, Covelli said.

"There are indications that he didn’t put enough planing forward to commit another attack," said Covelli, flanked by Lake County State's Attorney Eric Rinehart.

Covelli said Crimo ditched his cellphone in the 6500 block of University Avenue in Middleton, which was recovered by the FBI and is currently being processed.

I remember a conversation with a Democrat who was anti-death penalty.  The conversation happened right after the Illinois governor had commuted the sentences of everyone on death row.  This person was explaining to me what a great idea that was, and how we needed more leaders like this.  He lost it when I pointed out that this governor he showed so much admiration for was a Republican.

Even if it did, it would take 20+ years to execute him.

Crimes against humanity...which this certainly is...should be summary execution.  NO APPEALS!  NO LAST MEALS!

Maybe that might stop these narcissistic freaks.

Billionaire Bill Ackman donated $18,000 to toddler orphaned in Highland Park shooting: Grandparents say his father 'shielded him from bullets with his body'

    Bill Ackman donated $18K to a GoFundMe for 2-year-old orphan Aiden McCarthy
    The billionaire is the largest donor to the crowdfunding account
    Aiden lost both of his parents in the Highland Park parade shooting on Monday
    He escaped death after his dad shielded him with his own body
    Aiden has been placed in the care of his grandparents
    The GoFundMe supporting his family has raised more than $2.5M

Billionaire Bill Ackman donated $18,000 to a fundraiser supporting the family of a two-year-old boy orphaned in the Highland Park parade shooting.

Aiden McCarthy, 2, survived the hail of bullets Monday after his father, Kevin McCarthy, shielded him with his own body.

Kevin and his wife, Irina McCarthy, were both among the seven people killed when a gunman opened fire on a Fourth of July parade in Highland Park, an affluent Chicago suburb, with an AR-15-style weapon.

The crowdfunding page was established to help Aiden's grandparents with 'raising, caring for and supporting' him and has already raised over $2.5 million.

Confessed shooter Robert Crimo, 21, has been charged with seven counts of first-degree murder.

Lake County State Attorney Eric Rinehart said Tuesday that 'dozens' more charges would follow and he hopes to send Crimo to prison for life.


Aiden McCarthy (pictured with an unknown man) has since been placed in the care of his grandparents
