This man was so good at defending himself he could’ve went on trial for a speeding ticket and still end up up getting 25 to life.
Subject matter jurisdiction was requested and denied without any reason. This man deserves an entire new trial. Durrow should be removed from the bench.
😂😂😂😂😂
@@beckydoesit9331 “Subject matter jurisdiction”? What does that even mean?
He hit a woman and ran… multiple eye witness accounts confirm it…
@@WillttocSicated um, i think beckydoesit was being sarcastic
@@ramonaerpelding6118 Considering their other comments on this channel… I highly doubt it…
You could be right though lol
Just noticed he was willing to have a stare down with the judge a female but wouldn't even look at the prosecutor a male during his tantrum He truly is a coward
The gender of judge is irrelevant
@@periark No it's not.
@@periark No it's not. Brooks has special contempt for women, and you would've seen that had you watched the trial.
A total coward
I dated a guy who had contempt and anger like Darrell Brooks not only to me but other women he dated! But what made him give ME a second thought, was I fought back!
My heart goes out to everyone who's ever had to be in the same room as this insufferable man.
You know... I'd prefer this over the guy who is straight-up yelling the entire time.
@@TRVBAL Easier on the ears lol
"Now Mr. Brooks you were originally going to get a life sentence, but you've somehow managed to convince us to reinstate capital punishment."
I’m honestly thankful he decided to represent himself. It would have been so much more painful for the victims to go through how defense attorneys can twist things. They may been able to get some charges dropped. But Brooks made sure every single charge stuck. And I appreciate that he did that to himself.
As my late mother would always say; give a person enough rope, they will truly hang themselves
I doubt it. The PDs are ppl that live in that community. They may have helped some. Prolly would have had the last 2 charges dropped
Yeah but a lawyer can be more passionate even as a defense. The victims And victims parents were subject to come face-to-face with this monster. Could you imagine this guy taking out your mom or your kid and then you’re subject to being in the same room with this guy and having to respond to his questioning… he’s probably now can argue grounds that he had ineffective counsel and now the victims are gonna have to go through all this over again but at least the victims can be questioned by a trained legal rep.
@@williamelias5332 I can agree with you on the first part. And you are right it’s awful that anyone had to deal with him. I don’t agree with the council part. The judge has done everything possible to prevent that or mistrial. I really hope that’s the case.
@@williamelias5332 I think he had to be evaluated by four psychologists who said he suffered from a personality disorder but he was competent enough to represent himself so I don't think saying he had ineffective counsel will fly.
Rude. Crude. Verbally abusive. Whiner. Childish. Remorse insincere. Never stated he didn’t do it. Disgusting excuse for a human being 🤮
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
No conscience.
@@kepigal his conscience is clear.
@@mostpassiveuser8904 You mean void.
Omar from The Wire > This clown.
The whole trial was as if it were a child representing himself. This judge is a saint. Not only did she not lose her temper over his arguing and interrupting, she also did not laugh at some of the extremely strange things he did and said (such as the box fort incident, which had me in tears), and finally she did not let the erratic behavior distract her from the monstrous crime he committed. Someone give her a raise.
She did handle herself well but that is her job. While it would be difficult to maintain composure in her position, doing so doesn't make her deserving of a raise. Judges already get paid too much. The state I live in district Court judges, appeals court judges and juvenile court judges all make over 200k a year. The governor of my state doesn't even make that much.
@@badghoul It’s an expression.
What was also so hilarious about the boxes was they are labeled "basic understanding of the law" like a 2nd grade class as well😂.
@@nick56677 OMG 😂
@@badghoul so date a judge? thanks for the advice
I can't believe that he actually said, "I'm happy to say that I have a clear conscious" during his closing argument. Unreal.
and ‘no regrets’
And that the prosecutors “lied”
Heartless, totally heartless.
That's how EVIL he is!!!! I'm sure he will in fact suffer in person
And Jesus willed him to do it.
This guy is a perfect example of what happens when someone is let to not be held accountable for their actions for so long.
The dude was homeless. I think you're understating to the point of dulling the statement
@@eddy8y87 How could he be homeless with such an inspiring rap career?? I figure he had 100s of $50 fitty dolla bills available for the no -tell motel.
Prince Andrew has entered the the chat.
@@eddy8y87 He wasn’t homeless.
@@LaPlaztique He was homeless he had fell asleep in the car while he was driving that why he did it.
The irony of it all was that DB chose to defend himself in an attempt to control the situation when in reality had no control over himself and was his own worst enemy in the proceedings.
Exactly. He did this to try and control the case. Delusional.
These days in court were the most empowered Brooks has ever felt. He got to play being a lawyer and thought he masterminded his feeble and inept questioning of witnesses. He was the best witness the prosecution had.
I worked as a formal correctional officer in a jail with inmates, who had this same type of narcissist demeanor. They get real frustrated when they can't manipulate you and run game on you.
Ohhhh man i definitely agree with u I work at cook county in Chicago and it’s the nail on the head

I get that you want to believe comedy is just comedy but don’t be angry at K&P for ever ignoring this.

Bro you skipped past the part when he made a fort out of boxes. Literally the funniest part of the trial
That was absolutely hysterical. I LMAO.
Ikr, like "If I can't see the judge, she can't see me!"
Those public defenders must have been so relieved when they were dismissed from the case.
The way he stared the Judge down is exactly how I pictured him running ppl over. The picture of the car afterwards made me sick to my stomach!
SMDH
Exactly, that same hate-filled glare. Not many people are completely evil, but he definitely is.
Him saying the judge should be ashamed of herself is insane. The crazy part is he actually thought he had a chance with the jury 🤣
His delusion was so strong it was generating a reality distortion field in that court room.
He actually asked to have his shackles removed right b4 the verdict as if he thought he was going home!!!!
This is one gangster rapper who should have died on the street many years ago. We can only hope that, as the saying goes, "He who lives by the sword dies by the sword" and that another lifer in prison gives true justice to this animal.
@@PanicGiraffe His delusion was massive, and the even crazier thing is that this is the standard amount of delusion for sovcits.
He's so used to lying and bullying and intimidating women, he thought he could treat the court and jury the same way. Thankfully he has a long time to reconsider his actions. I couldn't get over his total lack of manners, shame or any common sense at all. Then I saw the interview with his mother. That's where he learned it.
I’ve never been able to fathom how Sovereign Citizens believe that’s laws don’t apply to them, whilst in the very same breath, demand the protection of those same laws.
And constitutional rights
They're not exactly the most bright people.
Brooks didnt really use sovereign citizen tactics a lot after the middle of the trial. He realized how dum he looked.
I’m convinced that sovereign citizen was created by police to trick criminals into incriminating themselves
Nailed it!
I wonder how that "Nobody tells me what to do" mindset is working in prison.
The first mistake was letting this dude represent himself. It was like watching a 3-year-old "play lawyer."
but your honor, thems is faxx
A bratty 3-year-old who just ate way too much junk food and is having a tantrum.
I love it when narcissists get angry when you don’t play into their mind games. This is a perfect example.
There's nothing worse for a narcissist than making them realize that they can't manipulate you, and you see through their mind games.
They're all coming out of the woodwork lately

🤯
@@RUclipsHandlesSuckBalls It's funny, they just double down and double down and double down and get crazier and crazier, and they're so out of control and acting like they're the only sane one and everyone else is crazy.

@@arcticbadger1 meghan markle has nothing to do wit' it.
Also, a perfect example of how being a Sovereign Citizen helps you zero percent. He's a double whammy. A narcissistic Sovereign citizen.
This one ranks highly among the most bizarre trials I've ever seen. The judge showed so much patience that even monks would be impressed
Everybody keeps saying that, but in reality all she did was let him talk his way into the maximum sentence with no chance of appeal.
@@BillyWitchDoctorDotCom facts

@@Enchantedbeingone misinformation
@@Enchantedbeingone Prove it or admit you made it up.
It never happened lol the dude is a trumped lol they love defending criminals.
The 2 luckiest people in the trial were the 2 lawyers who didn’t have to defend brooks…
Because his attorneys would not behave like he did during the trial.
Notice the office on Brooks right side starring into space, looks like he needs a break from this lunatic.
I never seen a defendant go out their way to make themselves look this bad
It's one of the few advantages of being a narcissist: complete lack of self awareness.
Observe a lower level court trial and you will see people go out of their way to make themselves look bad. They can’t help themselves. And then they’re shocked when it doesn’t go their way.
A narcissist frowned at always becomes a clown.
He was the best lawyer to defend himself.
10:47 I don't know why, but to me, this moment, right here is so erotic.
I hope the judge is getting good mental health support. I can’t imagine how rough it must be to have such an intense environment for so long.
Mentally exhausting is an understatement, but support/therapy? Grow up, this is part of the job.
@clintonleonard5187 doesn't change the fact people still need help sometimes
That's like arguing that first responders shouldn't receive therapy for seeing deceased bodies and crimes because it's part of the job. C'mon now. @@clintonleonard5187
@@clintonleonard5187yep. Judges know exactly what they are signing up for. Dealing with awful people is literally their job.
Definitely would mentally exhaust me just to have to listen to that maniac ramble on incoherently for 5 minutes
Many thanks to the jury for seeing through his bs . RIP to the 6 people. You’ve received justice
I was at the parade when it happened and I still have nightmares from what I saw
These six victims are now safe in the arms of Jesus, a place DB will NEVER be.
justice would have been death. he lives in prison off taxpayer dollars, me and you are paying for him to eat and sleep all day in a cell. yes he is rotting but he didn’t get what he deserved.
Not really he’s still breathing.
Let's be real, she said "defendant" pretty aggressively and we all love her for it
Idk about love but that part was funny lol
I came to the comment section specifically to discuss "deFENdant", I actually thought it was annoying..............
@@jazmynbrown6820 Even if he's guilty, the "Frankly" this, and "Frankly" that was silly.
It seemed like, "You're GUILty, WHY can't you just acCEPT that.........?"
Perhaps one can't accept it because at least some prisons are unacceptable.
(Edit 2: I think he's guilty.)
@@patriciaoffer9585 I think in the context of the whole trial, considering how much he interrupted/ was rude, the judge and prosecution only slipped a little here and there. This is probably the strongest example where the judge should have acknowledged that Opper's tone was not appropriate. She probably did it on purpose to get a response (sure had her "I need to raise my voice" argument ready to go), and boy did it work. Lawyers lol
@@juliancalip-dubois6069 Admittedly, only parts of the trial were watched by me.........:D
He's not crazy. He's just been used to getting his way in life by being loud, angry, threatening, etc. This was just another stage for him to be "the victim."
Narcissistic
He's going to see what being a victim is like in prison. His anger will get him no where there, except maybe killed. We can hope that he learns something before another prisoners takes him out. I hope he suffers too.
No he is definitely crazy. Not that that's an excuse, but he is crazy. I'm guessing multiple and overlapping personality disorders.
bingo.
Just wait until he’s among other inmates and pull that bull💩..they will show him what happens to a pos
like him..and it will not be pretty.😵💫🤷🏼♀️
I had a drinking game where you had to take a shot every time DB asked about subject matter jurisdiction. I ended up in the emergency room with alcohol poisoning.

@@debbie20111967 oh yeah and my personal favorite: substain.
I LOVE HOW HE THOUGHT MEAN MUGGING THE JUDGE WOULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE OR PUT FEAR IN HER HEART ! GOD BLESS HER !
The patience of that judge is immeasurable. That man is a monster.
Not a judges job to be this patient should of had him gagged early on
I don't know how she kept her composure. I've been watching videos from the trial and I can't stop myself from seething and cursing at my phone. 😂
She knew it was absolutely necessary so that there was 0% chance than he would ever see the light of day again through a mistaken appeal.
I agree, but he is a soulless, uneducated POS who deserves to get the same punishment his victims had to endure on that night.
clown monster
Not quite sure why everyone was so upset about his performance as a lawyer. I think he did an absolute brilliant job prosecuting himself.
😂😂😂😂
Yeah he did.
Yea, a brilliant lawyer that defended himself into multiple life sentences where he will rot and die behind bars . Made me laugh at him smile at him spit at him and ultimately congratulate him for defending himself.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ya In positive note thats True. He thought he can manipulate the courtroom. But it was torture to listen him bamber his bs for all who watched or took part on this trial, Include Judge and Jury.
Every time he apologized, that was nothing more than manipulation.
I love this judge. she made SURE he had no chance for a mistrial
I cant believe he just pulled “she said she was 18” in court
Over something he was already convicted for. Unreal!
😆 crazzzyyy.,.
It was such a Lifetime Movie Of The Week moment.
When he admitted he was guilty already
At that point, it was inevitable
“I’m a grown man with kids you can’t talk to me that way.”
(Goes to prison forever)
🤣🤣🤣
"I'm a grown man with a habit of impregnating teenagers, show due respect!" 🤣
My fav!! MY MOMMA GONNA SHOW UP all I have to do is tell her!! 🤣 😂😂
- mom never shows up, actually tells news reporter she’s not going to court! 🎃
@@dashh2151 FOUL 😂😂😂
Yay!
This sums up the type of questions he asked such as "What other details don't you remember"?
I love that the judge had the perfect response to his attention seeking behavior, just ignored it unless it needed to be addressed. Gave him only as much attention as was necessary. Thats how you Really get under someone like this' skin.
Dude did more for the prosecution than the prosecution did for themselves.
He called a bunch of people who basically testified for the prosecution.
Everybody: You stone-cold murdered six people -- grannies, a grandpa, and a little boy. We could not possibly hate you more than we already do.
Darrell Brooks: Hold my beer.
I mean when you're served up a sovereign citizen, you don't have to try too hard, the prosecution just has to give him enough rope to hang himself. It also has the added benefit of making everyone in that courtroom hate him at the same time. Making the jury give him the worst punishment.
People were wondering why the judge was allowing him to misbehave. It was because she knew what he was trying to do, he wanted to get under her skin for her to react so there would be mistrial or at the very least he would delay the case, especially by getting contempt of court. Instead she was a rock and he grew increasingly frustrated when his life long tactics and immature attempts at intimidation and disrespect failed to delay matters as she only ever replied curtly with the minimal responses required under law. He instead only dug himself deeper and once he had done so sufficiently, she stuck him in a box with a mic and camera, muting him during rants. Now he's recieved multiple life sentences.
Yes. If his goal was to make the judge and jury hate him as much as possible, he succeeded greatly in that!
The fact that he thought anybody would nullify the law and find him not guilty is astonishing. He really thought someone liked him.
That's right! He is so deluded and self-important!
My heart goes out to the victims families.
Even in his own belief system, why wouldn't one of the family members just Roblox him and then say that the law didn't apply to them.
His true colors shine when he's giving his closing arguments and is too shameful to even look the jury in their eyes, or make any type of eye contact. Pathetic scum!
I'm slowly catching up with all the episodes of this trial,, He is an absolute animal,, and right there in these scenes of the trial, he should have PLED GUILTY and LEAVE IT THERE,, HUMBLE HESELF!!!!
Right lol 😂
If this is how he conducts himself in open court to victims and the judge I cannot imagine what is current or previous women go thru alone in a house with him. He has the worst case of little man syndrome I've ever seen 😳😳😳😳😳 he is next level narcissist.
"What if it wasn't me driving?"
It's like he's pitching excuse ideas to his buddies. 😂
“But what if it was?”
“…But what if it wasn’t?”
The restraint of everyone in that courtroom is outstanding. You can tell every single one of them wants to drop kick him. The look on everyone’s faces says it all.
No they don't cause if we were in nature. They wouldn't make it. They need the State to feel safe.
@@dacub54 Whatever you say.
Explain!! He wouldn't survive 2 seconds in nature if that creature walked outside the courtroom unguarded.
Someone should have said something. Something along the lines of him being a waste of life. He’s beyond reproach.
@@pantherscreamsinthenight two ppl did and they were immediately removed but after things calmed down, she let both back into the courtroom.
He can't blame the truck when he said he felt like he "completed his mission" after being informed that he had killed people.
The hubris to talk over the judge is just, astounding. Mental illness sure is a wild thing, as you’d have to be an unstable monster alone to commit the acts he did. Then you think arguing with the person whose literal sole responsibility is to sentence you to prison, is a solid idea. How do we allow these people to represent themselves?..
When he "apologized" he was doing what is called Narcissistic Hoovering. It is when a narcissist feels like his aggression is pushing his target away, and then he begins trying to pull them back in with artificial kindness/empathy. The pushing/pulling is what makes the narcissist so unhealthy to their targets.
I believe it
He was cycling the charm on with judge during deliberation wait
God another amateur psychologist. Pathetic analysis
I've dated two ppl like this and married one of them. Nightmare.
Sounds like Brendan Schaub
He is one big display of narcissistic rage, gaslighting and word salad.

Misuse of legal verbage

She's asking the witness what he saw and brooks objects with "hearsay"
Yeah. That's the exact opposite of hearsay.
Don’t you just love hearing a murderer, career criminal say he is not going to allow lying and inaccurate records???? Hearing that monster say that would be comedy gold IF this was in a movie or fictional book and not truly such a tragic even.
His closing statement really put the nail in his coffin. He said, "no ones heart is more shattered than mine."
Which just shows that he has no remorse for the victims and their families. He is such a narcissist that he really thought he captured the jurys hearts in that closing statement. Unreal to witness.
He was weeping for himself
@@Joseph-rv6lc He also said "I have no tears left to cry" during his closing. Oh and "There are victims on both sides" caught my attention too. He really thinks getting hate mail is the same as being murdered.
Complete lowlife that was using big words that he didn't even have a clue as to what their meanings were. Not once did he mention crashing his car into innocent people. 0 remorse for the families this has impacted. These poor people will have to deal with thus their entire lives.
Too bad no death penalty for WI.
The funniest thing is this clown gonna get followers now there is gonna be alot of Darrell Brooks who gonna represent themselves and act crazy the same way he did in this trial
Even if he apologized open heartedly, showing remorse, he still would of been found guilty. I don’t understand why people hang onto closing statements or statements made by the defendant at all, it doesn’t change the trajectory
The best part about this trial is how he thought he could interact with the judge and courtroom in the same manner he has with people his whole life. The judge made him look like a fool and shot down everything he was trying to do. Got a dose of reality.
I'm sure the judge was thrown off by having a well educated man represent himself

You guys did a wonderful job covering this trial. As much as I was interested in the dynamic between Brooks representing himself and the prosecution....I held those precious victims in my heart throughout it all. 💔 🙏😅
Can you imagine sitting on that jury and not knowing what was going on while you were in a holding room waiting to be called back in then being sent back out and then back in again and NOW you can watch all this after the conviction???
That would be hilarious
I’d like to hear their responses to what happened when they were out of the room.
They brought justice for these families. I'm so happy he had this jury. Excellent job!
I'm sure they ( the jurors) would not just be 100percent ok with the verdict, they are now 1000 percent with it. God bless the jurors
I imagine they had at least a little bit of an idea. He seemed to time some of his BS just as they were outside the door. I know that was partially to delay,but I think he also wanted to give them the impression that he was being treated unfairly. Anyone with any common sense could see right through it though.
I would not be able to sit calm with decorum while being questioned by this fool.

@@user_7239 I agree. I can see that trial being used in psychology courses!
No he’s a psychopath and a sociopath. Evil twisted man.
Massive anger issues too.
Him clenching his face up like that is learned behavior clear back from his childhood. He learned long ago that making that face got him his way because it intimidated others. It's basically equivalent to when a toddler clenches their jaw and purses their lip while seething out of anger from being told "NO." It is amazing how never setting boundaries, rules, and consequences for a child carries with them into adulthood.
I saw a documentary a while back on ape social behavior where they did the same thing. Amazing how close some members of our species can share so many behaviors with apes and other mammals.
he obviously didn’t get beat up at the bus stop enough
@Creole Belle I love how that says ex 🙏 proud of you for getting out of that

i don't understand how these sovereign citizens think they're going to be able to talk themselves out of trouble. surely they have the internet? surely they've seen that this doesn't work. so how are they so surprised that this doesn't work out for them? it really boggles the mind

I've watched this absurdity so many times. Mr Bonesteel and Mrs Yourell testimonies made me scream out Loud😢😢😢😢
I feel sorry for the witness who had to take his line of questioning seriously.
They were in between anger and trying so hard not to laugh at how ridiculous he is for attempting to sound smart 😂 nonetheless, this man is ANNOYING and dangerous. Glad he served himself to prison on a plate.
I am a prison nurse. Many of my inmates show this argumentative behavior. I also have many who also claim that they are sovereign citizens. They believe the laws do not apply to them. They feel they should not be tried or in-prisoned for their crimes. I want to praise this judge for her handling this case. These kind of people are very difficult to deal with. They interrupt and argue about everything.
Praises to you too for what you do; must be very tough work.
Oh I don't know how you do it but I'm glad there are people out the like you who do. I am definitely not cut out for that job. I couldn't imagine dealing with people like that every day. Thank you for what you do!
That's because the sovereign citizen movement is grounded in egotism, entitlement and hubris. The same people who believe they are literally above the law are the ones who believe they're smart enough to get away with breaking that law and then become resentful when they receive punishment for their transgressions. All you need to do is listen to his mother making excuses and talking about how he's "mentally ill" and how he's her poor little "caged bird", who would never do anything like this to hurt others. Even though his entire adult life has consisted of his hurting other people and not holding himself accountable for it. The entitlement of criminals who believe their crimes are totally justified is the same entitlement that draws people in to the sov cidiot ideology.

This dude is mentally ill and downright a psychopath but he knows right from wrong and just doesn’t care. He’s not insane either. Pure evil
@@you12150 psychopathy and insanity don't necessarily exist in a 1:1 ratio. legally, insanity means that the defendant was too mentally ill to know right from wrong or that they have committed a crime. psychopathy requires a lack of remorse, but it doesn't mean that the defendant does not *know* the difference between right and wrong. we may characterize him as insane personally, but legally he's just an evil narcissist.

@itsShelleyyTV haha Ikr.. possibly a child..
He said "you should be ashamed of yourself" no sir YOU should be ashamed of yourself for your actions
How in the world wasn't this called a hate crime?
Its not, since he drove into the crowd indiscriminately
its incredibly scary to realize that there are thousands the same as this man who are still out there.
Many are far worse and more dangerous.
Darrell Brooks is a different type of species out of space I dont think anyone can come close to him
@@steelpipetv2073 Yeah there can. My stepfather during my teen years was just like Brooks.
@@steelpipetv2073 sadly plenty can
@@steelpipetv2073 personally, I don't think it a good idea to try and divorce his actions from being human. We need to be able to accept that this kind of evil is human.
Brooks is so quick to jump on something that he perceives to be unfair to him so he can play victim. At the same time, he totally ignores or disregards the chaos and carnage he caused. I just can't fathom his mindset.
Me too! It's baffling how he can kill and maim hundreds with not one sincere apology for the mayhem he caused!!!
He doesn’t care
A true narcissist
Selfishness
What David Dawson said. He is a true narcissist with a victim complex. He doesn’t feel for anyone but himself because he is the center of his own universe.
Sovereign citizen is so insulting - as if he is above the law ? As a Native American citizen it is also disgusting to hear him use that terminology in such a weaponized way. I hope he rots in prison forever.
Props to her Honor for putting up with that murderer.
That guy looking over Brooks' right shoulder and not breaking his role as a court bailif deserves recognition, as he certainly showed outstanding discipline throughout this trial. And that judge needs a few weeks off to clear the cobwebs from that PoS.
Yes that bailiff was extremely professional, stone faced the entire time.
he's a real one.
He’s probably real good at poker 😂
Poker face!!!! He did a great job!
@@allyoucaneatpete3723 I just said basically the same before I saw your post lol
This guy is the embodiment of rage. He has learned all his life that this relentlessly aggressive attitude will carry him through and he really believed it would work here as well.
Should've been put down a long time ago
Fully sentenced under the extent of the law today. Multiple life sentences. Judge didnt let any of his tactics work.
Extreme case of narcissistic and psychotic tendencies
@@tenjenk Any judge would've sentenced him the same....The judge was awful...She let this guy control the courtroom
So true, and even in prison, he is dangerous.
I’m glad justice was served and he’s never going on the streets again
Man, this court room looks like A circus.
When he declared his conscience clear in his closing I knew he was sunk with the jury 100%
"i have found myself innocent of all charges. now it's your turn."
And no regrets.
This clown was so smug and liked the sound of his voice.
Agreed. I was shocked bc it seemed as though he was leading up to telling the jury someone was in the back seat holding him at gunpoint forcing him to run over all those people.
Yes that was exactly the worst thing he could have said.
This is the first time in his life he actually had to listen and do what someone told him to do.

I felt like I was watching the bad kid in 3rd grade
Fun fact: this dude is locked up at the same prison at Chris Watts
It gets me how genuinely angry the prosecution is. I don't know if cases like this are validating for their choice of career or just make them hate it.
Judge Dorrow was both a prosecutor and a criminal defense attorney before she took the bench. So she knew exactly what she needed to do and avoid doing to make sure he has no grounds for an appeal and mistrial. Also when he was yelling at her saying he can’t hear, the entire time he was answering everything she was asking him. Lol
This case is no doubt going to be the highlight of her career. She will need a vacation after this.
@@carltoncoleman454 She'll have incessant nightmares
This case will be reversed on appeal
@@danielpires8940 Sure won't
@@Jordan23-45 : Yes, the Wisconsin Supreme Court will reverse this case, this tragic accident.

@@marcokeefer5413 🤣🤣🤣🤣
DA Opper is Gansta. You can tell she was sick of the non sense.
She said the de -fen- dant 😊
that was the only thing he was right about in the whole video - that IS how she said it lol
What a miserable human being, and I use that description of him very loosely! I really hope that he spends the rest of his miserable life in prison regretting the life he’s led and the pain and suffering that he has caused to all of his innocent victim’s. I really don’t think he’ll get away with this kind of behavior in prison.
He will never feel bad for anyone but himself.
It’s unfathomable that he actually believed that he was doing good during this trial. The way he addressed the jury was just absurd. Like they would empathize with him and his arguments.
Judge should add another 10 years just for all the rude and extremely annoying interruptions she had to put up with each court session.
After I saw this I had the very same thoughts!!!
I'm looking forward to Monday, I believe that is the sentencing.
@@Lyddiebits Hi! I believe Monday is when they discuss scheduling for the sentencing and when they will have victim impact statements :)
10 years on top of life would not make a difference.
This crime alone should be automatic death penalty... how he handled himself throughout the trial should be automatic death...
Judge needs to write a book called “Subject, Matter, Jurisdiction”.
And groundx
Lol
On his first arraignment, what kind of plea did he enter?
@@MrDLRu Not guilty by reason of mental disease. He withdrew that plea before the trial started and went with plain old not guilty.
What if Brooks wrote one? Would anybody buy it?
That "closing argument" of his was the cringiest thing I have ever sat through.
Great video! I love that he had a woman judge because it probably hurt his ego more.
When you find out about his criminal history it really gives you a deeper insight into this Mr.Brooks. What he did was reprehensible! How he represented himself and what he put this community through during this court case was deplorable, disrespectful, repugnant, unpardonable, unforgivable!
I've seen dark eyes like his before. His stare at the judge wrapped it all up for me. I'm happy that he's one less menace to society on the streets! The world is a safer place. At least a little bit.
TRUTH.
I'm glad he chose to represent himself.
Just to add a little humor here: may I use you as a living thesaurus if needed, Ms. Shelley? Btw, I agree wholeheartedly, sister
Just the cost of doing business.
Judge let him talk his way into the maximum sentence with no chance of appeal.
I think my favourite part of the whole thing (aside from the verdicts) was near the end when he was in a different room and he said “am I muted?” And the judge said “no”. He then mentioned something about jury nullification and she pressed the mute button and said “you are now!” You could hear the exhausted and exasperated courtroom gallery laugh a little in response.
Yes especially because it was directly after watching that horrific video
Jury nullification. They should've used it to say they should be allowed to see and hear what was being said and done when they left the room, without his knowledge, so they could've seen the difference in the way he acted. That's not a crazy person, that's classic abuser behind closed doors.
Time stamp?
Lawfully lawful
@@nosajkrad I’m still trying to figure out what he meant by that.
Brooks is objecting to the WITTINESS as hearsay? Lmao.
Interesting and bizarre is an understatement! This judge was amazing!
If you pay close attention, you can see he followed the 5 stages of grief in order: Denial, denial, denial, denial, then finally denial.
There was definitely some anger in there. And some insane attempts at bargaining. The depression is debatable. But definitely no acceptance.
@@maam-yj8ph Respectfully, you forgot denial
Um you also forgot denial
@@MrRevolverkiller I don’t deny that.😆
I am sensing some denial as well
Watching him represent himself made me feel like it was all just a literal game for him... the way he spoke to this judge blew my mind. I just cant fathom what goes on in this dudes head.
Must be aggravating for so-called sovereign citizens to find out the hard way that no one serious will be playing by their misinformed rules.
At least this mad man will be kept out of the lives of the children he impregnated a girl with.
