Chicago, Illinois United States of America
Crimo Jr. is facing seven counts of reckless conduct, each count corresponding to a person his son is accused of killing.
Robert Crimo Jr. is set to stand trial for assisting his son in obtaining a gun license despite the son's previous threats of violence.
Sam Crimo, the younger brother of the shooter, is expected to testify that he heard homicidal and suicidal statements from the shooter before the incident.
The younger Crimo was too young to apply for his own gun license, leading to his father sponsoring his application.

Robert Crimo Jr., the father of the individual charged in a deadly Fourth of July parade shooting in suburban Chicago, is set to stand trial on Monday. He is accused of assisting his son, Robert Crimo III, in obtaining a gun license despite the son's previous threats of violence. The trial is expected to last five days, with 10 witnesses called by the prosecution.

Crimo Jr. is facing seven counts of reckless conduct, each count corresponding to a person his son is accused of killing. The younger Crimo was too young to apply for his own gun license, leading to his father sponsoring his application. This sponsorship occurred even after a relative reported to the police that Crimo III had a collection of knives and had threatened to 'kill everyone'.

One of the key witnesses expected to testify is Sam Crimo, the younger brother of the shooter. He is expected to confirm that he heard homicidal and suicidal statements from the shooter before the incident. Despite these serious charges, Crimo Jr. has pleaded not guilty and waived his right to a jury trial. His defense attorney has called the charges 'baseless and unprecedented'.
