Robert E. Crimo III, who was charged with seven counts of murder Tuesday, applied for a FOID card in December 2019 at age 19, Illinois State Police revealed in a press release.

 

> This was AFTER these April 2019 & Sept 2019 incidents

 

In April 2019, an individual contacted the Highland Park Police Department a week after learning of Crimo's attempted suicide, Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli said Tuesday.

 

It was a delayed report, so police responded to the residence a week later and spoke with Crimo and his parents. Mental health professionals handled the matter with no further law enforcement action.

 

Months later in September 2019, a family member reported that Crimo had a collection of knives and said he was "going to kill everyone," Covelli told reporters. Police responded to the residence and removed 16 knives, a dagger and sword from his home. At that time, there was no probable cause to arrest, and no complaints were signed by any of the victims, Covelli said.

 

The Highland Park Police Department did, however, notify Illinois State Police of the incident. At the time, there was no information that he possessed any firearms or any rifles, Covelli said.

 

>NOTE THIS - ISP were informed.

Illinois State Police "received a Clear and Present Danger report on the subject from the Highland Park Police Department," the agency said in a press release. "The report was related to threats the subject made against his family. There were no arrests made in the September 2019 incident and no one, including family, was willing to move forward on a complaint nor did they subsequently provide information on threats or mental health that would have allowed law enforcement to take additional action. Additionally, no Firearms Restraining Order was filed, nor any order of protection."

 

The September 2019 Clear and Present Danger report "indicates when police went to the home and asked the individual if he felt like harming himself or others, he responded no," Illinois State Police said.

 

"The subject was under 21 and the application was sponsored by the subject’s father," Illinois State Police said. "Therefore, at the time of FOID application review in January of 2020, there was insufficient basis to establish a clear and present danger and deny the FOID application."

 

However, the suspected shooter’s dad, Bob Crimo, 58, knew police had been called to their home twice earlier that same year because his son had threatened to kill himself and the rest of his family.

"In order to purchase a gun legally in Illinois, one has to possess a FOID card. That’s a process that is solely managed through the state police. I’m not able to speak to that process," Covelli added.

 

At the time of the September 2019 incident, Crimo did not have a FOID card to revoke or to review, Illinois State Police Master Sergeant Delilah Garcia said. He did not have a pending application either.

> THIS IS BS - MONTHS BEFORE HE WAS ON THE RADAR.

 

Between June 2020 and September 2021, the younger Crimo also passed four background checks when purchasing firearms, through the Firearms Transaction Inquiry Program (FTIP), which includes the federal National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), Illinois State Police said. The only offense included in his criminal history was an ordinance violation in January 2016 for possession of tobacco, Illinois State Police said, adding that the agency has no mental health prohibitor reports submitted by healthcare facilities or personnel regarding Crimo.

 

THIS WAS A MAJOR FUCK UP BY LE.
