Judge to Decide on Highland Park Shooting Interrogation Videos

Defense argues Robert Crimo III was denied legal counsel during police questioning; ruling expected before February trial.

Robert Crimo III faces trial for the 2022 Highland Park parade shooting, accused of killing seven and injuring dozens.
Defense attorneys claim Crimo's rights were violated when police did not allow a family-retained lawyer to consult with him during interrogation.
Prosecutors argue Crimo was informed of his rights and voluntarily waived them, choosing to continue speaking with police.
Judge Victoria Rossetti will issue a written decision on whether to exclude Crimo's interrogation statements from the trial.
The trial is scheduled for February 2025, with a pre-trial hearing set for December 18, where further motions will be considered.
