Robert Crimo III, sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, was found guilty for the 2022 mass shooting during an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, Illinois. The attack claimed seven lives and injured over 40 individuals.

In a courtroom presided over by Circuit Court Judge Victoria Rossetti, Crimo received seven consecutive life sentences followed by 50 additional years for multiple counts of attempted murder. This ruling comes under Illinois law mandating life imprisonment for those committing multiple murders.
