And that is synonymous with a new 'heat wave'; one that promises to make us suffer. (more…)

Father of suspect denies responsibility

The father of the highland park parade shooting suspect said Thursday that he had "no inkling" that his son was capable of the rampage that left seven people dead and dozens wounded at the Fourth of July celebration.“I had no – not an inkling, warning – that this was going to happen,” Robert Crimo Jr. told ABC News. "I'm just shocked."Crimo said he never saw his son, Robert “Bobby” Crimo III, as a danger to anyone. He was dismissive of a September 2019 incident when his son threatened "to kill everyone, '' leading police to briefly confiscate 16 knives, a dagger and a sword."I think (that was) taken out of context,” Crimo said. “It's like just a child's outburst, whatever he was upset about, and I think his sister called the police.

Illinois’ “red-flag” law could have stopped, or at least slowed down, the suspect in the Independence Day parade shooting from being able to buy the gun he is accused of using to kill seven people and wound dozens more.Police in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park were called twice to the home of Robert Crimo III in 2019 — once after he tried to commit suicide and again when he allegedly threatened to “kill everyone” in his family. On either occasion, they could have immediately exercised part of the law that allowed them to seek a restraining order to prevent Crimo from buying guns for anywhere from 14 days to six months.Obtaining such a delay could have bought critical time for police to seek more information to ask a judge for a longer order preventing a gun purchase.But Highland Par...
