HIGHLAND PARK POLICE REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY - BLAME MURDER’S FAMILY FOR THEIR INACTION

In Highland Park, the alleged gunman was known to authorities after two separate incidents in 2019. Yet they did not send him in for mental health evaluation, nor seek a red flag order.

Police first responded in April to a suicide attempt. That matter was handled by mental health professionals, according to Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli.

Five months later, a family member called police saying he threatened to “kill everyone” in the home. State police said officers found knives during the call but they turned them over to the father, who was the owner.

Illinois State Police said they received a “clear and present danger” report after the alleged knife incident in 2019, but after Crimo’s father claimed the knives were his, he declined to move forward with a complaint. State police said there was no probable cause to make an arrest.
