Crimo
On July 4, 2022, a mass shooting occurred during an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, Illinois, United States. The shooting occurred at 10:14 a.m. CDT (UTC−05:00), roughly 15 minutes after the parade had started. Seven people were killed, and 48 others were wounded by bullets or shrapnel.
Authorities apprehended 21-year-old Robert Eugene Crimo III more than eight hours after the shooting and charged him the next day with seven counts of first-degree murder. On July 27, the charges were upgraded to 21 counts of first-degree murder, 48 counts of attempted murder, and 48 counts of aggravated battery.
Crimo pleaded guilty to all charges on March 3, 2025, shortly before his trial was to begin. At that time his sentencing was set for April 23. By law, he faced a mandatory life sentence. On April 24, 2025, Crimo was sentenced to 7 consecutive life sentences plus 2,400 years without parole.
