The father of the Highland Park, Illinois, parade shooting suspect has been charged in connection with helping his son obtain a firearm and ammunition, officials announced Friday.

Robert E. Crimo Jr. was charged with seven counts of reckless conduct, one for each person killed in the July Fourth parade attack, Lake County State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart said.

Prosecutors said Crimo Jr. helped his son, Robert E. Crimo III, purchase the AR-15-style weapon used in the shooting by sponsoring his son’s Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) application.
It may not be a popular opinion here but I feel it was appropriate to hold the father responsible for obtaining his son a firearm in these circumstances. I am as pro-gun as a person can be but feel it is my responsibility to know my own kids well enough to determine if they are off their rocker.
The article indicates that it was not possible for the mentally disturbed son to legally obtain either the Illinois FOID or purchase a firearm on his own. The attack was carried out with the parent’s assistance. Their cowardice led to the deaths of seven people.
