Darrell Brooks Beat His Ex-Girlfriend, Then Drove Through Christmas Parade: Prosecutor
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2022
- Prosecutor Zachary Wittchow told the jury that they will hear witnesses testify that Darrell Brooks beat his ex-girlfriend during a fight before driving through the Waukesha Christmas parade. "So the evidence is going to show that the defendant must have known once things got loud and once there was more than just him and Erika Patterson on scene, the police were going to show up. So he took the coward's way out," prosecutor Wittchow said.

Zach is so well spoken, calm, and a vastly superior man to those who he is prosecuting.
And a daddy 🔥
And he is so handsome.
He seems like someone who would die instantly if he cracked a smile
Imagine your son running somebody over bailing them out and letting them use your car again. My god
She did not even have the guts to so much as put one toe in that courtroom.
Seems he saw happiness on the street, and crushed it. He had a bad day, so he thought he’d share his misery! What a sick man.
Nailed it 💯
Clinically a sociopath or “textbook”
My theory is that he thought the police blocking the parade route were trying to arrest him for the assault, so he fled. Through anyone who might slow him down, with no regard for anyone but himself.
Why do women choose guys like this
@@overenergy6534 she was 15 when he got her pregnant ( I’m not sure if she was younger when they met) and he was in his early 20’s 🤢. So that’s how she “ chose” him ( he preyed and manipulated her so clearly she didn’t chose him )
Him still breathing is an insult to decent folks everywhere.
Dude should’ve been stoned months ago
We can only hope he takes his own life in remorse…but it’s likely this demon has no soul.. he was sent here for this.
in a civilized society he would have been executed last year.
@@5PercentTint Or shot before he killed!
How far we have fallen to even give this you-kNow-what time to make a mockery of our legal system after killing children. Pathetic, this country is pathetic. Weaklings rule.
He beat that young girl mercilessly. What a disgusting excuse for a man!
Of all the abusive “men” in the world, my guess is that our good Lord deems them as “boys,” unfit for life. Where is the death penalty people? It needs to be re-enacted and used on murders the year after their conviction. We are happy to kill little babies but we won’t kill career criminals, racists, Pedophiles and murders. What has happened to our society?
This dude is gonna have a very rough life in prison. Killed innocent kids. The guys in prison are fathers and they don’t overlook harm done to kids.
Why haven't they done it already he's been in jail since Christmas
@@missf4681 he is in jail during the trial. He’s not in prison yet. Those in prison will bring him real justice.
@@planreview I certainly hope so he killed alot of innocent people and permanently maimed alot more. People will suffer with what this barbarian did for yrs. Death penalty
He's not insane. He is narcissistic and defiant . I guess he will have a natural consequence .
You know a lot about prison
This guy is incredible. Refuses to man up to his crimes. The sooner this trash is taken out, the more justice is served.
Death penalty a month after the conviction not 10 yrs a month
I hope when you say "taken out", its referring to dead in the forest.
@@missf4681 unfortunately he has the privilege card from what the media created. The media spin was a vehicle was out of control that hit people.
@@Trump4Prez24 lets just say somewhere where the flies cant get to him.
@@siggyretburns7523 I like it already
Officers tried to stop or redirect Brooks to a route away from the parade but he thought he knew better, which is exactly how he has been behaving since the case began and probably for his entire life.
Oppositional defiance
You are so right
He’s a 2 yr old trapped in mans body.
Tantrum boy
He's a Jackass and I can say that and not get blasted..lol. I'm still trying to figure out how he obtained a driver's license..I bet he wouldn't understand that..🤦🏼♀️
The fact that he is so smug about assaulting her and acting as if it was nothing to make a big deal about is so telling
It was no big deal to him because he had done it so often. One of the reasons he is so upset is because he won't get to beat up another young woman.
This prosecutor has common sense and he's doing a great job.👍
Hes also got a cake walk, he cant lose.
He isn't bad to look at either.
And he’s a hottie hunk!!! Oh my. 😍😍😍😍😍
@Automatic Static 🙄
@@holisterbruxly4554 in a court system that didn't convict OJ and Casey Anthony, nothing is ever a cake walk.
Found guilty on 76charges
He should’ve been in jail, judicial system is broken!
The punching Ericka in the face does it for me. The woman is already in a shelter, and his bum self couldn't help her, then hits her in the face, then tried to make himself out to be some great Dad/man. Man, I've had it with these rappers, kings, and alphas in the BC. They seem to be the most selfish, irrational, and violent.
Yet u women stay with them...smh.
@@omgorangelollipop8184 she was at a womens shelter. They obviously weren’t together
@@omgorangelollipop8184 considering he impregnated her at 15 which means he groomed her and controlled her easily, I'm amazed it only took her 16 years to unravel his lies and find her voice. I had less traumatizing grooming happen to me and it still fkd my life up and caused extensive trauma later on. She never had a chance but she finally was getting away from him and he lost it. She always knew if she left when he didn't want her to he could just kill her and she did it anyway. Even though the grooming told her he was right and she was worthless and she felt she loved him, she got away. She is incredible and I hope she follows her own dreams and gets the therapy she needs to heal. That kid of theirs is also going to need a lot of therapy witnessing and being around a narcissistic and abusive parent. Brooks is a monster. Erika is a warrior and I hope she emboldens women everywhere to figure out the safest plan to get away. I hope she shows them they are worth it.
@@justinejoni5566 ...they were OBVIOUSLY still boinking
@@justinejoni5566 do you really believe for one second she was hanging with him for his singing voice......justine..... as a female please can you do a little bit of a better job having some common sense
What a shame Wisconsin doesn't have the death penalty
His mother gave him use of that vehicle knowing he was out on bond with no license. Why isn’t she in jail. If the parents of the Colorado shooter got arrested for supplying their child a tool to kill…the same should happen to her
Oh man, I didn't realize that his mom knew that he had expressed fantasies of vehicular homicide like the Colorado kid. In that case, yeah, she should get some responsibility (even if her kid was a grown man).
Yes exactly!
@@sophiophile Try to read. The mother gave him a vehicle knowing he did not have a license. That is enough. Or it should be.
She knew he was a menace to society and supplied him with a vehicle knowing he had no drivers license.
Trash raises trash. 🗑
Swiveling in his chair, anxious that he can't be heard. It was refreshing to hear the attorney speak without being interrupted by Brooks' outbursts.
Wow!! Throw the book at this 🤡 Clown.
That's an insult to clowns.
@@ryshellso526 Really✅I should of said throw the book at this Loser!!✔️✔️✔️😉😉..
The book ain't heavy enough for such a POS.
🤬🤬🤬🤬
A disaster of a human being. He beat up his girlfriend - then took out his misery on peaceful strangers.
That was not the first time he beat her. He beat her the entire sixteen years they were on and off. That is how he controlled her.
That poor girl. I’m so glad she’s finally free of him. And the victims of the parade can start their healing also.
He'll never lay a hand on her again.
He still thinks he’s the victim. We need to start learning how to recognize true evil and deal with it appropriately
This^^^ so many gross people like this exist and unfortunately HAVE KIDS and ruin their lives too 😢
I wish I could recognize evil.
Add God back in schools
You mean folks spouting anger and evil acts while declaring themselves victims?
I can name a few
But what can we do 🤷♂️
I think the victims should have a pretty good wrongful death lawsuit against a system that failed to keep this man off the street again and again when you hear his rap sheet
He is a victim of his mother not disciplining him as a child.
A child left to himself brings a mother to shame.
But I'm sure he was such a good boy.
Let’s not forget he was OUT of custody immediately after trying to kill the ex girlfriend. Those responsible should also be on trial, as they directly led to this massacre.
Absolutely.
good point...Ive been watching this out of order...how many days/hours was that apart? I just saw the cop was asked to help the gf, but got called for this disaster as she was just wounded and friends were trying to get help for her
he tried to run her over
@@sashachitownvillegas6850 He DID run her over.
@@lisawentworth6831 he was out on $1000 bail 😒 for punching and running the ex over. He was engaged in another altercation with her just prior to the parade massacre. That’s right: he tried to murder her, was let out on nominal bail by the “system” before murdering and nearly killing countless innocent people. It’s appalling in any civilized society.
DEATH PENALTY is the only answer to SCUMBAG CRIMES.
this story just gets more brutal and horrendous as it goes. and wasn't it already? geez.
Well the reason he was arrested the first time was because he tried to run his ex girlfriend over with that suv. They let him out on a $1,000 bond. Really sad.
Before it got taken down you could listen to his hate filled rap and evil FB rants. The man worshiped evil and was crafty with lies and excuses, not crazy, hard hearted.
@@SRose-vp6ew A reminder that the person playing up in court is a very dangerous and unpleasant individual.
@@SRose-vp6ew
Which part of that is not crazy?
@@junedeike6144 Not even just tried, he purposely ran over her legs. Our justice system is a joke
He ran her over with his vehicle which he was arrested for. He was bailed out a week before the parade. He has a long criminal history
He had a girlfriend? Now that's amazing.
Yup. Was the reason he was out on bond when this happened. He tried to run her over with the same suv. Judge let he back out on $1,000 bond and then he did this.
Makes a person want to puke! How would any normal regular woman be with this POS!? He is an evil, vile, ugly, demonic, and disgusting POS!
That judge should be in prison too
They actually say former girlfriend. But this man molested her at 15 and got her pregnant when he was a 24 year old male. She is a victim too.
Nothing amazing about it in the least.
He done all this but he is gonna fuss about a tiny cut and small bruise. Wow
He's in my opinion a narcissistic psychopath with no morals no decency just pure evil
He got a boo boo
He wants you to feel sorry for him
It's how children ask for attention and comfort, faking being hurt.
He is a violent,uncontrollable of his own feelings and rage.Entitlement.
TRUE
yes
These types of men, weak men are dangerous. Unable to control their emotions and incapable of holding themselves accountable.
I’m shocked…there were no objections or interruptions.
Prosecutor is good. Just laying out the facts of the case. No nonsense.
Must not be able to find his sign
pretty sure the judge has muted him
Maybe he respects men more than women?
Not sure this barbaric animal can respect anything
It’s the prosecutors opening statement ,you can’t object. Surprised this guy followed the rules.
We will see how tuff he is in jail
This man knows he is screwed in prison, he killed a child and they don't tolerate that sh**.
Watching this trial while the toddler-defendant is in the other court-room and can't disrupt the procedure is a real breath of fresh air. It's like that moment when the painkillers kick in after you've been suffering from a horrible toothache.
Toddler- defendant 😅😅😅😅
Toddler defendant I'm hollering 😂🤣😅 it's sad that he really reminds everyone of how we've seen toddlers act 🤦🏽♀️
😂😂
Whenever Brooks gets upset when bad things are said about him, he starts moving around in obvious discomfort. He can't stand it when he can't shout his detractors down.
And he hates to be silenced.
This prosecutor is honestly great. You don't miss a point or a word. He's chronological and efficient without beating the points to death. At least that judge isn't bored or having to keep up with needless rambling.
No "umm's" either. Very proficient speaker I agree.
Jessi would you know the name of this prosecutor ? He knows his job , very sharp and quick excellent prosecutor being that young.Thank you in advanced my respect
And yet there were actually people commenting on how Brooks could have made a great Lawyer! 😮😅
The mother needs to be arrested too.
Omg prosecutors voice is so nice to hear after the pre hearing nightmare. Going to be a looooong trial for those poor jurors.
Even longer for the victims and victims' families.
To be honest, if I could willingly jump on a trial as a jury member, it’d take the hit on this one. I’d love to be on that jury. I got stuck having to serve jury duty and, initially, I was bummed I got picked. But, it ended up being pretty interesting and I actually looked forward to it every day. And that was just a boring, relatively-uneventful, civil medical malpractice case. A criminal case, especially one of this magnitude AND with an absolute nutter trying to represent himself (for now), I think would be entertaining, aside from the obvious, like having the see detailed pictures of the carnage and listen to the witness recounts of that day…
@@RandomBogey I reckon the jurors would be fed up with his antics by now. This case is a slam dunk for the prosecution.
Are we finally getting into the case? Not just his crazy outbursts?
He's going to get convicted and spend the rest of his life in jail.
It's a good thing the Judge put the defendant in the timeout room, the Prosecutor would never get a word.
So disrespectful to the people who lost their lives and their families. This is so wrong
A definite punk to beat a woman till her friends stepped in then plowed down 6 parade goer's who didn't know him& he doesn't know them... RIP dear people..✝️🙏
The account of what he did to his ex is the only thing I’ve seen him not object to
He almost did.
You didn’t see him shaking his head? He probably couldn’t fine his sign but he made a point to a point to show his disapproval. This guy is too much!
He has been defiant and objected to everything in this trial.
This man is a truly piece of work! 😖
You spelled 💩 wrong...
Only because he s allowed to be . A tough judge would help
The only reason he isn't objecting is because he literally can't - his mic is off.
He has an objection sign 🤦🏼♀️! He used it a lot yesterday. Maybe they took it away today 😂
So happy he chose to represent himself
How does one go from a fight with a girlfriend to doing what he did??!!
I know his ex girlfriend wish she never ever met him let alone have a child by that monster.
Love this attorney! He did a super job!
I think Brooks was dropped on his head when he was a infant. He’s a freaking fool.
I think he was thrown
What a waste he made of his potential. He's convinced that everyone else involved is to blame... Like most psychopaths, he could have become a politician.
Good one, laughing at the sad truth.
Potential??? This animal has been in and out of jail for violent offenses since 1997.
He isn't a psychopath he is a narcissist.
Psychopaths os a least some sort of intelligence
@@devinnichols6675 Forgive me, David, but I don't think either narcissism or psychopathy are mutually exclusive to intelligence.
"The thing about a punch in the eye it's hard to fake"
Take that Amber Heard 😆
Hahaha ! 😂
Hahaha that was good.
My thought exactly
❤️✌️😂
😂😂😂
This guy can get a girlfriend, meanwhile I can’t get a date to save my life
@@Ro7777Haha! Zzzzing!
You and I both. Ouch. LOL.
and he punched her in the eye..... don't think there is a good, normal relationship there.....lol....pass on that one
You look pretty good to me.
If I were younger and unmarried, I might take a run at you myself.
Quality vs quantity
Since the trial is now over and his guilt has been proven it is SO satisfying to watch the smirk you can see on his face in this video turn to silence and fear when he was convicted
When Corey turned up he lost his power.
Desperate to regain power he ran people over in his SUV.
Lowest life form! God help the victims and their families!
If you want justice, put him in general population.
Most of these crimes would be prevented if the justice system cared more about domestic violence situations. Crimes against women and children need to be taken more seriously.
Agreed. So many people still see it as the old fashioned situation of 'something that stays in the home', when it should be treated as a greater threat than attacking a stranger. If someone can do that to their family or 'loved ones' imagine what they can do to strangers.
@@mspaint93 Bingo!!
It's going in the opposite direction now and some states are implementing no cash bail for violent crimes like NY does. A woman in NY state was shot to death by her husband who had just been arrested for beating her and was released no bail.
@@cee-emm Women honestly need to be able to protect themselves and have a plan of action to safely remove themselves and their children, out of these situations. Sadly its gonna take us women and the few men who care about us, to handle these situations. The police and government will not fix the issue of crime, because it's not on their door steps. Women and children are the 1st to become victims. Sadly we will hear more of this. We have to push education on what to do and how to prevent. Wisdom saves lives.
@@KelilahJudah Yes but to be fair some women should really know better than to marry & have kids with a multiple felon who already spent 15 yrs in prison for the kidnapping & assault of his ex.
That sick sob said he didn't lay a hand on Erica! He is such a lier!
A man who represents himself has a fool for a client.
I'm sure he was getting his life together 🤣
Absolutely 🥺
He was on his way to enroll in the local community college
Why are we even doing this? Take him out back and handle it with for 72 cents
25 cents
Because we have a Constitution and the Bill of Rights. A person is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Brooks is most definitely a monster who deserves to be in prison for the rest of his natural life, but his crimes have to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Otherwise we descend into mob Justice which is not real justice.
I love how he said he at I'll doesn't understand the charges against him everytime he talks to the judge
And yet he wants to defend himself.....
The very essence of stupidity.
If he was a real man he would just plead guilty and take responsibility
Thank you
Well a real man he definitely ain’t a narcissistic psychopath yea I hope they put him under the jail
Exactly my point 💯
To much like right 🤔🤔
Its a shame WI abolished the death penalty in the 1800's.
The same with public lynchings
Should bring it back just for this guy.
Brooks sure enjoyed listening to this lawyer talk about him
He’s not „a lawyer“, he’s the prosecutor.
@@justinafuchs2619 Prosecutor 's are attorneys. Lol They're usually DA's.
It's the only time he was quiet
@@justinafuchs2619 prosecutors are in fact, lawyers.

INSTANT KARMA ! WELL DONE
This whole affair is a circus . And the defendant is the ringmaster .
Mr. Wittchow, you gave a truly amazing opening ! You succinctly delivered a confident and well-thought out opening and delivered every bit of it. Great Team work, well put together, and your goal was reached. The Plaintiffs were so lucky to have you three. Great Job Team!!!
He claims he's a sovereign citizen, so he believes laws and rules don't apply to him.
This Lawyer is very good easy to understand and listen to
Is Brooks in time out room again? Or is he in the court room?
Time out room
Adjacent courtroom / timeout so they can mute his toddler like outbursts
Time out where he belongs (well actually he belongs in a hole in the ground). With his special headphones for his intermittent hearing problems 🙄
Haha, he is in time out room again; probably on Mute. But he seems to be behaving himself quite well during prosecution opening argument to be honest. Not yelling around at an empty room, he even has his prison Shirt on.
Guilty 👏👏👏👏👏
The female witness is a fighter who is not intimidated by a creep like Brooks. Her eyes were filled with a challenging hatred for him, and I have to admit that I kind of liked her passive/aggressive use of the name Brooks (after saying "you" and then pretending to correct herself). She didn't have to admit that she was drinking straight vodka that early in the day; she could have said beer or wine. In fact, I didn't get the feeling that she really cares what strangers think of her. Flawed as it was, I wouldn't discount her testimony because I do believe that a good deal of what she said is what she remembers, even if the sequencing is off. Tonight, Brooks may go back to his cage with the judge's words of encouragement ringing in his ears, but he shouldn't forget that he's going to face witnesses that are nothing like the woman he cross-examined today. I believe he will crumble under what's coming, and he'll eventually demand an attorney (and he'll probably get one).
You see he hardly interrupted the male lawyer but the woman he walks all over …
He tries, but she is resilient and has no respect for him at all. She sticks to the rule of law to keep the case strong.
I see the way this guy's is acting. I hope he stays this way so they keep him in a max joint. I've done time in Wisconsin, medium and down is daycamp
With the horror of his crimes, surely he’ll be in max for the rest of his miserable little life
I agree
People who do this kind of thing do not get better.
My heart goes out to every witness and victim that has to testify. That is an emotionally and mentally draining enough situation to be in let alone having to deal with this jackass while doing so!! I imagine that their testimony will be just as traumatic, if not more so than the incident itself because of him and his abhorrent behavior!
looking at him swinging back and forth in that chair it seems as though he looks proud of what he did😖
RIP to all the victims🙏❤️
As we encounter more evidence of this guy's past and character, it almost seems inevitable that he was going to act out in some way.
This judge has the patience of JOB
He claims it wasnt him right? then who was he saying driving the car?
I feel sorry for Erica she seems like a good person.
Same
She has five children that she does not have possession of, one of those children is by Brooks. The other four are by other men. She has a 15-year-old daughter who just had a baby.
@@ellisjames7192Ok Darrell Brooks
I hope the other inmates give him some much needed street Justice.
I'll never forget that first girl he drove bye. She was lucky.
He speaks so well.
Geese !!!! for once silence..lol except for the chair movement back and forth 🤣
what a monster
man..no objections???
"I don't understand"
I think when this is over we will never hear his name again
Sad he’s like a big delinquent child. His mother should be ashamed of herself.
Poor girl, no one deserves that kind of pain especially on the women 😠
I have watched numerous people testify..all a in some way are victims..a woman today works at a bank.. They have a float in the parade every year..her husband was driving the float.. she and her 2 kids were marching in the parade.. she turned around to see friends of her daughter get run over and her coworker got run over... the guts . the bravery these people have to recount everything and honor the fallen.. their friends, family and loved ones.. they are heroic beyond words
I feel like that was shade at Amber Heard when the prosecuter says it’s hard to fake a swollen eye, because it’s def impossible to hide one too. This case seems to be wild too.
Public executions need to be brought back
What a COWARD
This is what happens when you are raised in a broken culture where you are taught to never take responsibility for your own actions and to just play the victim.
So true!
Yeah, but this is very unusually extreme.. this guy's brain is also broken or something.
The same can be said for any school shooter, cinema shooter, or domestic abuser. Not all murderers get McDonalds after being arrested though.
@@arthurneddysmith hey... McDonald's has adult happy meals now a days.. why not stop for some McDonald's after being arrested
Lol not you blaming society and not HIM. "Broken culture". Naw sis, he's a violent mentally ill man. You want him to take responsibility then stop pointing fingers.
Why is the prosecutor downplaying this? Darrell Brooks was driving around slowly until he saw the parade. He had multiple opportunities to turn down other streets but instead, accelerated into the parade, swerving into crowds of people.
I saw them bring this up a few times. It wasn't missed.
Opper looks so proud of her Junior prosecutor. 7:45
No one in their right mind would be with this maniac
Truly despicable
Perfect opening !!
I love the defense team!
