A father will ask a judge Monday to dismiss his case in which authorities say he helped his son obtain a gun license three years before the younger man fatally shot seven people at a 2022 Fourth of July parade in suburban Chicago.
Seems like the wrong charge for the particular reason they're citing. The reckless conduct involves accusing him of lying on paperwork that was involved in a sponsorship or character witness type thing needed for a gun license. So the proper charge there would probably be along the lines of lying under oath.
The reckless charge could still be a thing but would probably have to involve other evidence not just being involved in the process for the gun license that the state gave the shooter.
“Your Honor, I just can’t face the consequences of my actions. Of course, my son is a monster and all of my enabling actions through money and power has caused this monster to grow into what we see her today, but, have you thought about what kind of message this sends to the wealthy?
I’ll be outside kicking puppies until your decision is rendered.”
