At the time Crimo was applying for his Firearm Owner’s Identification card, his only criminal offense was a January 2016 ordinance violation for possession of tobacco. Police also noted there were no mental health reports submitted to state police. The Illinois State Police have not indicated whether the elder Crimo could face charges for his role in helping his son obtain a firearm, though legal experts indicated to The Daily Beast that it is a possibility. Especiallyto sponsor the license indicates he is “liable for any damages resulting from the minor applicant’s use of firearms or firearm ammunition.”
For her part, the mother of Crimo’s skatepark friends knew Crimo’s parents and believed the teenager’s home life wasn’t ideal and lacked stability. While technically still married, the parents lived in separate homes. According to the acquaintance, Crimo’s mother, Denise Pesina, “wanted to be divorced and move on with her kids, but I don’t think that was ever really an option for her unfortunately.
Court documents suggest that Crimo’s well-being may have been on the backburner for his parents on multiple occasions. In 2002, Pesina pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor child endangerment charge after leaving then 2-year-old Crimo alone in a car in a Toys “R” Us parking lot.
