People like Brooks only know one thing: violence.

I may be simplifying it too much maybe (help us for saying this outloud) one of our law experts can expound in this and maybe point out where I'm wrong or oversimplifying it.
He's going to spend his time doing all of the idiot make believe sovereign citizen crap that gets passed around among felons in the joint. As an attorney I actually got seated on a jury in one of these. Most of the trial is the judge hammering down silliness by a guy who is simply wasting everybody's time.
The appeal is going to be based on the record at trial. He's going to be toast.
We waz moors and arabs and egyptians and kangz and cheeze it crackers or something.

A 2000 year old book and yet so relevant to today. Even the non-religious have to admit the bible holds an incredible amount of wisdom.

Another case of a guy that should get his day in court... be sentenced to death and that sentence be carried out within minutes of the jury verdict. His malevolence deserves death and to put him in prison only re-victimizes those he killed and injured by having to support his sorry ass until death in a cell. The people of Wisconsin should be ashamed of not having the death penalty for POS like this.
Quote:On Tuesday, Darrell Brooks, who has been accused of murder in connection to the Waukesha Christmas parade last year, issued his closing statements to the jury.
After yet another argument with Judge Jennifer Dorow before the jury came in Brooks said that he did not have a statement prepared, and instead said he would "speak from the heart."
During his statements, Brooks told the jury, "nobody will know why it was his will for this to happen," shortly after stating that he believes in Jesus Christ, and that "This is not something that started at the beginning of this incident," but rather, he was raised "from the womb," to believe in God, noting a Bible that has been on the defense’s desk during the trial.
Brooks also stated that he "has no regrets," and that his "conscience is clear."
Repeatedly, Brooks reminded the jury that the decision is "in your hands," urging them to make the "right" decision and "open your hearts."
Brooks is facing six counts of first-degree intentional homicide, and 61 counts of reckless endangerment. Each count of intentional homicide carries a mandatory life sentence.
During his statements, Brooks attempted once again to bring up arguments regarding a faulty throttle body in his model year of Ford Explorer, but the jury was instructed to disregard his statements on the matter.
Brooks also attempted to bring up to the jury the idea of jury nullification, a topic which moments before Brooks had argued with Dorow about, with Dorow ruling against his statement.
Regarding these two topics, Brooks told the jury, "this is information that I feel like you needed to know, you should have known. Information that was taken away from you. Why? to prove a case?"
Brooks also attempted to argue that he did not have "utter disregard for human life," noting that a detective testified that Brooks allegedly was honking his horn and "not speeding" during the incident.
"Where does this insatiable intent to kill kick in?" Brooks questioned.

His closing argument was the first time in the trial that he didnt go off the rails.
And surprisingly, he actually sat in silence while the prosecutor delivered her closing.
And even more surprisingly, he sat in stone silence while the judge read the jury the jury charge ---- all 76 counts.
Even though the judge tried to get the jury out of the room every time she sparred with Brooks, I am sure they know the clown show he is putting on. I would imagine they absolutely hate him to the core at this point.
