The man who opened fire from a rooftop at a Fourth of July parade in a Chicago suburb in 2022 was sentenced on Thursday to seven consecutive life sentences, one for each of the people he killed.
The man, Robert Crimo III, was also sentenced to a 50-year term in prison for attempted murder for each of the 48 people who were wounded at the parade but survived. He is not eligible for parole.
In reading the sentence, Judge Victoria A. Rossetti of Lake County Circuit Court called Mr. Crimo “irretrievably depraved,” a man who has demonstrated no remorse for his crimes.
