Suspect In Highland Park Shooting Faces 7 First-Degree Murder Charges



The suspect in the Highland Park, Illinois shooting Robert E. Crimo III has been officially charged with seven counts of first-degree murder. According to the local state’s attorney’s office, more charges are to follow and Crimo will appear in court on July 6th. Highland Park Mayor Nancy Rotering says the pain of Monday’s shooting at a Fourth of July celebration in Highland Park, Ill. that killed seven people has “finally set in.” “We need to talk about why we as a nation who theoretically are celebrating freedom are … now enslaved to guns,” Rotering said.

  1. Mental Illness is for real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This very sick individual needed help which he never got. He slipped thru the cracks. Very sad case. We can all be Monday morning quarter backs can't we. Also lots of people fit this profile but not every one will act out in such violence. It's really hard to predict which one of the MENTAL CASES WILL ACT OUT in such rage.

  2. Shooting innocent people on the 4th is not the America I envision. We're producing our own terrorists. I'm reluctant to take my youngsters shopping at Kroger anymore since the aisles are like shooting alleys. Too bad that we don't have more of the smaller neighborhood family stores where people know your name.

  3. Pee-Wee Herman was able to pull it off in his "Big Adventure" – and here is the clip…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC3yGH4nETQ&ab_channel=Movieclips

  4. Bring back the death penalty for situations like this!

  5. Democrats indoctrinated this kid really bad..he became a ANTIFA/LGBTQ member, went to trump rally to pretend he was a trump supporter..

  6. That’s gonna be a good look in the penitentiary

  7. SOLUTIONS; more guns

  8. Social media a malignancy n it's high propensity to radicalization has deadly consequences.

  9. MedMen is the one stock that could make you rich! MedMen is the Most Recognized name in the Industry. Marijuana will be the fastest growing Industry for the next 10 years. Buy… MMNFF.. stock today.

  10. Premeditated Murderer goes to jail knowing he is wrong while an UNARMED BLACK MAN running away was EXECUTED by Cops with 60 BULLETS in his body.
    For anyone not seeing this as a problem os seriously sick themselves

  11. I'm still confused how he is still living and he was pulled over without 90 rounds being fired and 60 rounds making it's mark?..

  12. Bring back Public Stonings!

  13. TWO things I don't understand. 1: Why isn't the "Father" under arrest? 2: Why hasn't the Crimo family been BURNED out of their home?

  14. Obviously this young Caucasian male was full of demons

  15. If the cosmos is truly righteous, he'll get what he deserves in this life and the next.

  16. Go ahead and try and ban assault rifles in Illinois. You already have some of the strictest gun laws in the entire country. How's that working for you?

  17. Not terrorism charges though….lol if it was a brown middle eastern guy then this would all of a sudden be a totally differnt story…how? I see no difference between home grown or otherwise but apparently white men are exempt…this is what makes this country so hypocritical and cant even be taken seriously when it comes to american 'logic'….which ever way the wind blows in this twisted morbid country

  18. Oh how convenient. They had footage of the crowd cheering over the charges but not over the assault rifle ban? It’s either BS or it’s exaggerated.

  19. Why didn’t the police shoot him 60 times? Why isn’t the parent that sponsored him to get the weapons going to jail as accessory to murder?

  20. Ban Assault Weapons—YES, but since Republicans won't act, please try to secure obvious targets. If the parade route had been surveilled by police camera drones, this might have been prevented. POLICE FAIL

  21. They should arrest that his father who helped him to get that big gun. they should sue him too; YOU men are giving your sons guns, the gifts of death because you want to be a proud father (even to your deranged sons); stupid men.!!!…This could have been worst, he could have killed many more if he had entered the crowd with that gun; he fired so many bullets from that roof ……….

  22. Not one of you liberal emmotional wrecks is wondering why we need to know so much useless info.How does it help you?

  23. hard to tell when there reporting real news or opinions. big epidemic here in the states with fake news. we keep watching and empowering the fake news network and this country is going to become a tyrannical government where criminals run ramped with guns and the innocent law-abiding citizens will be preyed upon

  24. in thumbnail why he make himself look like britney spears

  25. The media keeps showing this dude like he's some type of hero.

  26. He is still a kid..

  27. Probably bullied a lot. When I was young I was bullied a lot. Then an uncle of mine let me use his weightlifting set. Within 8 months the bullies left me alone and I had girlfriends. He jacked off s lot and had no self esteem. He should just lift weights and be strong.
