A unsealed federal warrant says agents found bomb-making materials at the apartment of an alleged gunman charged with fatally shooting seven people at a Fourth of July parade in suburban Chicago last year
FILE - Robert E. Crimo III walks into the courtroom during a hearing in Lake County court, Aug. 3, 2022, in Waukegan, Ill. A federal warrant unsealed Thursday, March 2, 2023, says agents found bomb-making materials at the apartment of Crimo, the alleged gunman charged with fatally shooting seven people at a Fourth of July parade in suburban Chicago last year, the Chicago Tribune reported.
“It could have been planted if it worked, in theory it could have been planted . . . somewhere where it could cause harm,” Crimo was quoted as saying. “If it worked, I might have planted it early, or I might have just sat down, left the bag there, and walked away.” The warrant was filed in U.S. District Court shortly after the shooting, though no federal charges have been filed in the case, the Tribune reported.

He embraced the founding fathers and defended the Constitution while attacking his fellow citizens for hypocrisy and inaction. 'What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth Of July?' was quintessential Frederick Douglass. Historian James Oakes discusses the ideas behind Douglass' rhetorical tour de force, his relationship with Abraham Lincoln, and the critical importance of antislavery politics in bringing about the destruction of slavery.
