Jun 26, 2024, 02:30 PM

The suspect in the Highland Park parade shooting, Illinois man Robert Crimo III, has declined to change his not-guilty plea during a hearing on Wednesday. This decision comes just days before the second anniversary of the July 4, 2022, mass shooting that resulted in the deaths of seven people and injuries to dozens more. Crimo initially considered a plea deal that would have resulted in a life sentence but ultimately rejected the agreement. The hearing was attended by survivors and victims' families, who were anticipating a resolution to the case.
