That Crimo boy's background reads almost like the comedy "Malibu's Most Wanted". I did enjoy the movie but now this **** done gone and ruined it!

I have been following this all yesterday since I’m sick but the mental illness breaks that seem to constantly break in this age group is wild. Typical mental illness pops from my research in that 18-25 age group in men wtf is happening aside these underground groups?

I’m not here for the mental illness excuse. And now they’re bringing the parents into it. His former coach is trying to throw his mom under the bus. Sir, this is an unemployed loser of a 22 year old MAN not a child.

I don’t excuse mental illness but I’m looking at from a bigger perspective because of consistency. Like punishment for such vile destruction must be had but it’s still like wth is going on. The mom video looked wild or off but he is responsible

I'm in Minneapolis and we had 8 people injured from a mass shooting last night in an area called 'Boom Island'. It's where the usual 4th of July fireworks are held. Despite the name, Minneapolis did not have fireworks festivities this year. We'll have them in a couple of weeks for the Aquatennial celebration. I'm guessing the shootings here aren't getting coverage as there were thankfully no deaths.
While that was going on, this was ONE block over from me last night. I walk down this street every Saturday to go to the farmer's market. I think everyone has lost their minds. And the story of the 2-year-old boy above breaks my heart.

There was also a mass shooting not too far from my parent’s house in Gary early Tuesday morning- 3 killed; 7 injured which got almost no attention because it’s Gary. Happened at a block party.Of course they police have no suspects.

What is that? People shooting fireworks at people and doing drive-bys with them?

This is so heartbreaking. She went out that day to have a nice time and lost her mother in a horrific way. She will never fully recover... I know I wouldn't. I hope she has a good support system.
This is the reason why my family stayed home on July 4th....

Definitely a correlation with mental illness presenting in some of these cases. The family had to know he was not sane... but as usual, they are in deep denial that it's that bad. Coupled with the ease of access to guns means more tragedies like this. Because no one was able to sound the alarm that homeboy was off his rocker. Take a look at any of these shooters' social media and it's glaringly obvious.

The problem with conflating it with mental illness is the fact that 95% of people dealing with mental illness do not commit violent crimes. If anything they are violent towards themselves: suicide, substance abuse, eating disorders, cutters, etc.
The catch all for mental illness (which is mostly extended to white perpetrators of these types of crimes is rarely extended to black and brown people) and stigmatizes the entire community of those struggling with their mental health.

The father is trash and they need to charge him as well. He is an enabler and just as responsible.

They’re also reporting that due to his obsession. With numerology, 47 was backwards for the day he carried out his attack.

I don’t agree with this. He is trash and he’ll end up paying for the rest of his life as a pariah member of the club no one wants to belong to BUT this grown man committed these crimes as an adult. He did not commit any crimes with the gun purchased legally with the help of his father as a minor AND they sought mental health counseling for him. Would I have done more and not bought him weapons YES but he followed the law and broke no laws. I’m sure he regrets it and may need to be under suicide watch himself. Yes and I had to edit this post to avoid the banned.
Now the Tops shopping market killer was just shy of 18 and out here doing psychotic animal murder tortures that his parents knew about and covered up. Throw them under the jail.

I agree and so many really don’t know their families. Like people hide as oh that’s just Jim he is always that way. Watching the uncle be interviewed it’s like I know there’s a lot of deep pain.
As someone who has mental illness heavy and grew up around those who were in state run homes I can’t not see all of this as illness yet the impact of it being covered is monumental. The added layer of affluence in this case makes it even more complex.
My heart hurts for the baby who lost both parents as one day that talk will have to occur. Financially he is good but that doesn’t bring back your parents.
The racial makeup of these mass terrorist is really telling.

That's exactly what it was. In another video, they're running around with them and aimed them at individuals. As far as the mass shooting, several victims are in critical condition. So, I'm still thankful that no one lost their life.
There is just nowhere that one can truly feel safe from guns and stupidity in the US anymore.

Actually reports are coming out that the family struggled to make it in that affluent area. Not surprised for a father owning a deli- The average income of Highland Park is at least double the national income. I know working in big pharma that most of the jobs up there can’t support like 90% of the workers and had to commute like I did for years. I could scrape and afford to live up there now but Why?! WTH is Mayberry? That was never my paradise. Highland Park was actually considered a Mayberry community harkening to a white fantasy world in some movie.
Clearly the home was in disarray and poorly kept. I’ll post more when I can find it again.
His Road From Cub Scout to Massacre Suspect Was Full of Red Flags
Some former classmates of Robert Crimo III were shocked. Others saw the writing on the wall.

Whew I'm tired. I cannot get the image of the things left in the middle of the road: Chairs, strollers, bags, water bottles all because of this monster!

Thank you for sharing this. I looked at the attorney the family got since it was RKellys former attorney so I know that isn’t cheap. This boy showed so many signs and so much overlooked yet he will be held responsible. Folks need to start examining their folks.Actually reports are coming out that the family struggled to make it in that affluent area.
