Opening statements in the Highland Park Mass Shooting Trial for Monday

The prosecutors will submit explanations opened in the process against the alleged Highland Park Parade Schützen on Monday morning and determine the case that Robert Crimo III committed one of the worst mass shootings in the history of Illinois.

The public prosecutor's office of the Lake County district has announced that thousands of pages with documents and photos – and a recorded confession – bring together with the attack on July 4, 2022. The prosecutors say that Crimo climbed on a roof and shot on the parade of the suburbs of July 4 and killed seven people and desired 48 others.

He now looks like 69 murder and murder cases after the public prosecutor's office dropped 48 cases of heavy battery last week. Crimo faces an obligatory lifelong prison sentence if he is convicted of two murder counts.

Most surviving victims plan to testify in the process that the judge Lake County, Victoria Rossetti, could take three and five weeks. Many of the 80 people who interviewed themselves as jurors said they couldn't commit this time—or crimo, give a fair shot.

One of the six women and six men who were impressed by the jury said that Crimo initially owed his arrest based on earlier news.

“Of course I formed an opinion. We all assumed that he was guilty, ”said a juror.

Nevertheless, they said they could put these feelings aside and only assess Crimo on the evidence submitted in the process. Six alternative jurors were also selected.

Eric Rinehart, lawyer of the state Lake County, who provided some of the surveys when choosing the jury, has not published a full list of witnesses for the process. However, the prosecutors announced in pre -judicial submissions that several dozen witnesses are mentioned, including surviving victims, police officers, detectives and experts.

Crimo's defenders have not given a strategy. His lawyers failed in their attempt to exclude hours from crimos on video, and argued that he had not received any access to a lawyer who had come to speak to him.

Crimo appeared last week for less than half of the jury's selection. He appeared for the first half of Monday and Tuesday, but did not appear on Wednesday. The hearings were sparsely attended; Reporters made up most of the court room gallery.

Crimo acted unpredictably in the almost three years that his case was preceded by Lake County's courthouse in Waukegan, which makes it difficult to anticipate what could happen at court hearing. He dismissed his judicial lawyers to take them back weeks later. He agreed to commit himself guilty, but the course in a dramatic court scene, which annoyed the victims, reverse the course. And he lost most of his telephone rights in prison after leaving a video in which he claimed that the FBI had staged the attack.

Rossetti has decided that survivors of the attack can observe part of the process, although many of them plan to testify. The prosecutors said the victims will not identify crimo as a suspect and only tell their experiences and their wounded.
