>> her words, not mine,
Damn. For a minute there, I thought I was getting your vibe...
AP now has an article out with more details about the gun purchase:
“Less than three years ago, police went to Crimo’s home following a call from a family member who said he was threatening “to kill everyone” there, according to Christopher Covelli, a spokesman for the Lake County Major Crime Task Force.
A Crimo family attorney, Steve Greenberg, told the Chicago Tribune that the father was not aware of the threats when he helped his son with the application because his son lived with another relative at the time.”
“Crimo’s home” ... better to have said Crimo’s residence, as Crimo didn’t have a private address. My understanding is that he lived with family.
“Family member”... don’t know the relative... but it wasn’t his father, or mother, unless they lived apart at that time...
