Three months after suspected Highland Park shooter Robert Crimo had police called to his family home when he allegedly threatened to “kill everyone” inside, he was granted his first Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card, under his father’s sponsorship.
In September 2019, when then 19-year-old Mr Crimo was two years too young to legally obtain a gun permit, Illinois State Police were called to the suspected shooter’s family home after they received a call about a “clear and present danger” report after he threatened to “kill everyone” in his family.
