The man accused of murdering seven parade-goers in a mass shooting at a July 4 celebration in Highland Park appeared in court for the first time where prosecutors revealed he had confessed to carrying out the massacre and contemplated carrying out a second attack while dressed in disguise as a woman.
Robert Crimo appeared for a bond hearing in the 19th Circuit Court in Lake County, Illinois, on Wednesday morning via Zoom just hours after a grandfather who attended the parade with his family died from his injuries.
