Waukesha Christmas Parade Massacre Trial - Brooks Gets 6-Life Sent. + 762.5 yrs in prison
Posted on 10/3/22 at 7:20 pm
Posted on 10/3/22 at 7:20 pm
Oct. 26 Update: Darrell Brooks convicted on all 76 charges against him with all enhancers.
He will be sentenced to 6 life sentences without the possibility of parole with the possibility of up to just more than 850 years on top of that.
Sentencing will happen at a later date.
Oct. 4 Update: Jury (12 jurors & 4 alternates) selected. Testimony starts Thurs., Oct. 6
The jury reportedly consists of 10 men & 6 women
ALL white
Original Post (Oct. 3) - Jury selection started today in the trial of Darrell Brooks... the man accused of killing 6 people & injuring scores others at a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wis. on Nov. 21, 2021
And it appears to have gone as expected... with Brooks causing numerous disruptions and getting kicked out of the courtroom several times due to said disruptions
At 1 point... he even said he didn't recognize his own name on a piece of paperwork he was provided by the court
Brooks is representing himself... so this should end up being an easy W for prosecutors just on that fact alone (a man who represents himself in court represents a fool)... but he is also trying out the "sovereign citizen" tactics... which always goes over well
Voir dire of potential jurors was supposed to start at 8:30 AM... but due to Brooks' antics... didn't start in earnest until about 2:30 PM
it was originally expected to take 3-4 days to pick a jury of 16... 12 jurors & 4 alternates... but who knows how long it's actually going to take if Brooks keeps up with these antics (and doesn't decide to get actual lawyers to do his defense for him)
Brooks faces 76 total charges in relation to the attack... including 6 counts of first degree intentional homicide
if convicted on even 1 of the homicide counts... he faces a mandatory sentence of life without parole
WITI Milwaukee
As a side note... the judge did not allow any streaming or live coverage from the courtroom and severely restricted what news cameras can use from the courthouse
ETA: I may have misunderstand the explanation of the judge's ruling... just jury selection isn't being live streamed... but the trial itself will be

This judge sucks.
Edit: Other posters have said that the trial will be live-streamed. The no live stream decision was just for jury selection. This judge may or may not suck.

I've never seen a crime story get swept under the rug by the media faster than this one

Is Rekieta covering the trial?

You’d think a story like this would garner huge attention from the national media. Odd that it doesn’t. It’s almost as though the media has a political narrative to promote so they’re only interested in stories that line up with that narrative. But that’s crazy. If that were true it would mean virtually all national media wasn’t actually journalists but instead part of the propaganda wing of a political party.
But that’s crazy, right?

Would not be surprised this case gets thrown out on some ridiculous technicality.

He's going to act crazy enough for the jury to send him to a mental hospital instead of prison.

How very MKUltra of him

Hopefully a victims family member gets a couple suckerpunches in.

They should air all of this out for sure on streaming
They wanted to vilify Rittenhouse and drag his character through the mud for all to see
Don’t let this mutant escape without a deep dive colonoscopy into his character and how fricked up his views are
Let’s see who were his liberal hateful influences

Wonder what celebration Progressives will throw for this foot soldier.
Another leftist hero. This won't get the coverage that the fake BYU "racist fan" got.

Have they charged the SUV that committed the murders?

I didn’t even know this was going to trial. Pretty quick actually. Less than a year from the crime. Him not having a lawyer sped things up.
