As a former prison correctional RN there are no words except that the behavior of these officers is nothing less than barbaric and inhuman. And the nurse should have his license taken for good for not advocating for the patient during the murder/assault.
He was in there because he used a 🔪 on his ex a single.mother with 3 kids. Which almost became orphans he got her good but she survived. That's why they gave him 12 years , on this one I will pass!
It doesn’t matter why he was there. The issues is the man was brutally assaulted and murdered while handcuffed by law officials not by other prisoners or civilians.
Yes, I am a retired C.O. Lieutenant, and I have never had any problems with my detainees. Some were released in my neighborhood, and we speak to this day. I gave tough love to my inmates, and they, in turn, gave me respect. People make mistakes-I get it-but they are still human. We are only a thin line away from being prisoners ourselves. Be careful how you treat others. The only ones who get no love nor respect from me are those who violate children and unnecessary killing!!!
Definitely! Adam Bauer, William Alvarez, Ernest Iverson and several others tried to report the same officers for the same type of beatings. They knew this was happening. They just happened to get caught this time.
This man was brutally murdered plain and simple, and the fact that they have not been arrested yet is outrageous. This violence culture in NY prisons, especially upstate NY prisons, has been going on for a long, long time, and it needs to stop.
When they get to court, their lawyers will say Mr. Brooks had drugs in his system, an undisclosed illness that contributed to his death. Like the Penny lawyers did in the Neely case in NYC.
They should not be allowed to hold out and wait for these guys to get their pensions before they are charged!! Continue to shed light on this issue as it continues to happen as we speak!!
This is going on right now in Florida state prison they just beat a dude an he hasn't come to his door in 3 days my brother who is arrested said they are permanently removing anyone who reports them even the attorney general and the mayor knows an does nothing we need more CEO action on this officials
It’s the people in the system. That’s the reason we can’t change it. They don’t let people with felonies or certain criminal backgrounds work certain positions but they continuously let white nationalist take up these positions and it hurts everyone in the end.
@NYCJoeBlack I said absolutely NOTHING about letitia james Accomplishment, :)) your using a strawman/red-herring, I said they should be calling letitia and governor huchel out and threatening NOT to vote for THEM ! if the 13 Officers are NOT Arrested ! IF I am not mistaken letia james is the states attorney, she can call for the arrest of them MONSTERS ! WHY is she Not calling for the arrest of the 13 officers HUMMM 🤔...? something's fishy going on ? Letitia james had a big MOUTH When it came to publicly saying that she would go after trump ! But she VERY VERY SILENT WHEN IT COMES TO THE 13 WHITE OFFICERS WHO DELETED THIE BLACK MAN !!!
I am QaHah, they erased my comments, They deleted my response... So I said nothing about letitia james accomplishments, your using a red-herring/strawman, what I said again is that people should threaten NOT to VOTE for Her and Kathy huchul, because the 13 officers that did that to a black man should be arrested ! and letitia james says big things when it came to orange man, but she is SILENT about this HUM ? ..🤔 something's fishy giong on.
@NYCJoeBlack What people is she for ? and if she's for the people, why has she not spoken out about the horrible things those officers did to that black bl@ck man ?

This is the culture that hochel has supported. She should be held accountable for her lack of leadership. Praying for his family to find justice and if possible. Peace
Yes, Brooks was serving time for stabbing his girlfriend but the point I think you are missing is that in the United States of America, we should not have law enforcement abusing/killing defenseless civilians. We are not a 3rd world nation. We are not a totalitarian nation without laws and order. Brooks' murder shows that we are ALL vulnerable to police brutally.
That looks worse than what happened to Mr. Floyd, a lot worse in my opinion. This comment probably won’t make it past whoever censors taxpayers voices for some strange reason.
Criminal charges of homicide and torture with the death penalty on the table -- Those in positions of authority and power have a responsibility to uphold the US Constitution -- all inmates are protected by the 8th amendment. The state government along with Prison officials should be charged with crimes against humanity. I believe it's S. Vietnam that has a 0 corruption policy for those in positions of authority and power -- corruption and harm to the people has the death penalty -- if that were America, how many in our system of authority would be left?
This is so heartbreaking! I can just image how lonely and scared he felt poor guy.. he did not deserve to get beat to death. Justice needs to be served. 💯
These C.O.’s are a huge problem in the prison system. Awful racist ppl especially in PA and NY. I know ppl that are personally attacked for nothing by them.
I give my deepest condolences to Mr Brooks & his family it’s is very very saddening I cried so hard so much to see what the was doing him omg that’s so horrible 😢😢
I was first a correctional officer and I have witnessed criminal activity amongst the staff. I then became a police officer I have witnessed more corruption violation of people human rights and a lot of times they didn't deserve the abuse. They need to be charged with hate crimes immediately........ And if you're going to make excuses for them let the rest of it inmates go... I have been approached they threatened to do me the same way and I told him they better check my resume cuz I walk by faith and not by sight and I fear no man and whatever they do they better do it right because there will be a reaction to their action.. and it's true this is not an isolated incident. The wardens are responsible as well they need to be held accountable
That's crazy I live in Rochester and I've been hearing this story for the last week or so and I'm just now realizing this is in my county so I'm thinking it should be more protest in the street for this I ain't heard nothing is quiet out here
There are places where you can get tackled and arrested just for smoking a joint on the sidewalk. So there's no excuse for the lack of charges against these guards.
Justice for Robert Brooks. I'm glad this is making national and international news. See the PBS report and that of Al-Jazeera. I'm tired of the bully-mentality which seems normal here in Utica. It's not.
You are right, it's all of our loss. The fact that this has been going on for decades, especially towards minorities, is sickening. Many fail to realize that some inmates are nonviolent offenders, and some are even innocent. Even the worst inmates should not be subjected to this behavior. Some CO have appointed themselves as the "enforcers of of the death penalty", outside the courtroom.
I don't know what anyone upon Earth is thinking. God himself handed us over to the nations that they may rule over us. Not withstanding God said the nations went too far. They shall serve me forever even forever and ever. Ask Jesus? Yes anyone could ask Jesus. Only look at me as a human visitor visiting.
It’s not racial. The other victims filed lawsuits against the same officers for beatings. They’re not black inmates. It’s not the skin, it’s that uniform & badge giving them immunity & power.
@UCMICU It's racial indeed along with the uniform, and and immunity-power. The administration is to be held accountable as well. 400 years of systemic racism doesn't compromise moral and ethical principles for all of humanity. We are all one nation under God 🙏
@UCMICU An attack of that nature that is 400 years old in America against Black people is what dictates the terms of if it's racial, not a person's perspective. Non targeted attacks doesn't mean that a situation isn't racially motivated. No matter how you see it, white cops brutally beating an African American is hundreds of years old in Amerikkka's history. You can maneuver around the truth all you want, if it's not racial then tell that to the victims family and see what they tell you in return! 💯
@ Lol. Sounds like you’re projecting your own racism onto this situation. The victims here are white, black and brown. Just because you hate white folks doesnt mean every incident is based on racism. Bless your little heart.
As a former prison correctional RN there are no words except that the behavior of these officers is nothing less than barbaric and inhuman. And the nurse should have his license taken for good for not advocating for the patient during the murder/assault.

Who cares@@blackorchid2494
It doesn’t matter why he was there. The issues is the man was brutally assaulted and murdered while handcuffed by law officials not by other prisoners or civilians.
At the same time, I don't realistically expect a nurse to rush into that room and physically fight off a dozen corrections officers...
Yes, I am a retired C.O. Lieutenant, and I have never had any problems with my detainees. Some were released in my neighborhood, and we speak to this day. I gave tough love to my inmates, and they, in turn, gave me respect. People make mistakes-I get it-but they are still human. We are only a thin line away from being prisoners ourselves.

Arrest should be made without asking ! & This is probably not there first. Disgusting
Definitely! Adam Bauer, William Alvarez, Ernest Iverson and several others tried to report the same officers for the same type of beatings. They knew this was happening. They just happened to get caught this time.
They said it isn't!
Going on three weeks and still no arrest. This is sickening. We want JUSTICE!
This man was brutally murdered plain and simple, and the fact that they have not been arrested yet is outrageous. This violence culture in NY prisons, especially upstate NY prisons, has been going on for a long, long time, and it needs to stop.
They need to be charged with murder
Asap
When they get to court, their lawyers will say Mr. Brooks had drugs in his system, an undisclosed illness that contributed to his death. Like the Penny lawyers did in the Neely case in NYC.
No one should be treated like this.
Officers do 💯
These monsters were able to celebrate Christmas and New Years
Them cops needs to be in jail
“Bad ones out the system” that’s 90% of them glad it’s body cam and video cause they been abusing inmates
Private citizens have been arrested & convicted with much less evidence than a video like this. *Where the hell are the charges for these guards???*
Facts
Prayers for the family of Robert Brooks 🙏 ❤
Keep fighting for Justice.
There is no justice in America there is only, just us.
They should not be allowed to hold out and wait for these guys to get their pensions before they are charged!! Continue to shed light on this issue as it continues to happen as we speak!!
This is going on right now in Florida state prison they just beat a dude an he hasn't come to his door in 3 days my brother who is arrested said they are permanently removing anyone who reports them even the attorney general and the mayor knows an does nothing we need more CEO action on this officials
Insane
JUST DEMONIC 😡 😡
There needs change across the country to thiscorrupt system . Reform the whole system.
It’s the people in the system. That’s the reason we can’t change it. They don’t let people with felonies or certain criminal backgrounds work certain positions but they continuously let white nationalist take up these positions and it hurts everyone in the end.
They should be calling out letitia james , and Kathy hochul ! and threatening not to vote for them if they don't arrest 13 criminals !
Letitia James IS for the people!!
Stop creating false information and actually look up her accomplishments!
@NYCJoeBlack I said absolutely NOTHING about letitia james Accomplishment, :)) your using a strawman/red-herring, I said they should be calling letitia and governor huchel out and threatening NOT to vote for THEM ! if the 13 Officers are NOT Arrested !

This is the culture that hochel has supported. She should be held accountable for her lack of leadership. Praying for his family to find justice and if possible. Peace
Justice for Robert Brooks...may he RIP❤
What goes around comes around and Brooks goes down
😅
🙄🙄

We are not a 3rd world nation. We are not a totalitarian nation without laws and order. Brooks' murder shows that we are ALL vulnerable to police brutally.
The saddest thing i have ever seen!
Even though Mr Brooks is a very violent man thats why he was in prison, he didnt deserve a death penalty
Exactly
That looks worse than what happened to Mr. Floyd, a lot worse in my opinion. This comment probably won’t make it past whoever censors taxpayers voices for some strange reason.
I'm glad someone is keeping this case of injustice relevant!
Criminal charges of homicide and torture with the death penalty on the table -- Those in positions of authority and power have a responsibility to uphold the US Constitution -- all inmates are protected by the 8th amendment.

To think the United States government lectures countries worldwide about improving their 'human rights' records 😂
I know it's A joke
I Hope Robert Brooks 🕊️!! Family Get The Justice ⚖️ That They Need.. From What Them Officers 👿 Did To Him.
JUSTICE!✊️👊
Tell your peeps to stop committing crimes.
This is so heartbreaking! I can just image how lonely and scared he felt poor guy.. he did not deserve to get beat to death. Justice needs to be served. 💯
Isn't this the same Robert Brooks that damn near stabbed an innocent women to dēąth ... sorry, not sorry.😂
That's your mentality? They had no right to execute any one
These C.O.’s are a huge problem in the prison system. Awful racist ppl especially in PA and NY. I know ppl that are personally attacked for nothing by them.

"GOES UP THE LADDER"
Isn’t it funny how diddy just pushed Cassidy down and is facing 100 year in prison . These cops did 1000x worse and no charges
How do you enforce the law when law enforcement breaks the law?
I give my deepest condolences to Mr Brooks & his family it’s is very very saddening I cried so hard so much to see what the was doing him omg that’s so horrible 😢😢
So I guess its ok to commit murder at work and not get charged
I bet this doesnt apply to everyone
NO JUSTICE NO PEACE..... FIGHT FAMILY, JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED
So why aren't any of the killers charged?
That's right don't stop.
Prayers for the family 😢sad what was done to Robert Brooks ..🙏🙏😢
The fact nobody has been arrested yet is scandalous. I wouldn't be surprised if they're just giving them time to flee.
In suffering brings change, without it evil becomes more and more evil
They will get away with this murder, they always do.

Separate from the enemy
Form our own nation
My condolences to Mr Brooks' family. This should never had happened and I am sure this is not an isolated incident.
When will this end
I am so sorry for your loss.
🙏🙏🙏
🌄🌄🌄
🪶🪶🪶
I pray Robert Brooks 🙏 gets Justice ⚖S This is Sad!😢
🙅🏿. You better spread the word.
Instead of waiting for the system when are we going to confront the ones who are responsible
Stay out of prison and you don’t have to worry about abuse
How long he was inside prison,
I wonder how they family feel
No words from democrat leadership
No words from church leaders
No words from so many media outlets
Funny how you feel to mention Republicans!!!
Stop trying to divide and stop using a sad situation to propel your sick agenda!
I’m so sorry Robert 😢😢😢 this happened to u
Heartbreaking!! Injustice!!
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Do you know about the eighth black boys who came up missing in Toronto since October this year
People are simple she said get rid of the bad ones
THEY WANT ACTIONS, WHY WAS HE IN PRISON IN THE FIRST PLACE
She totally miss spoke 🤦♀️
Dylan Roof walked into a church and killed 9 people. He got arrested without a scratch and taken out for a snack. Wtf?
There are places where you can get tackled and arrested just for smoking a joint on the sidewalk. So there's no excuse for the lack of charges against these guards.
ummmmm, maybe because he didnt resist when they arrested him and by law, they had to feed him something, or they would have got in trouble for it Duh
If he had not stabbed his girlfriend 3 times and tried to kill her this would nit have happened.
Justice for Robert Brooks. I'm glad this is making national and international news. See the PBS report and that of Al-Jazeera. I'm tired of the bully-mentality which seems normal here in Utica. It's not.
Prayers are in order this family and for all Americans families who lost love ones to our so called justice system
That’s right New York STAND UPPPPP …. That was OUTRAGEOUS
Where are the police
I understand your pain correction officer killed my brother in Rikers
The streets need to fill up with supporters and outside the AG office,it seems to have gone quiet 😮
Those officers should be in prison but he was a man who abused and stabbed a woman.
Justice for Robert brooks
We are looking for justice from our oppressors and I’m done
And the New York Attorney General refuses to prosecute, what do y'all think about her? Now you still love her
Change will be shifting their weight from the left foot to the right !
😢
Hochul, Adam’s, and the commissioners ll need to be fired now.
Where is A.S.? O, there's no financial gain from this. That's why he's nowhere to be found 😡.
🤬he still human and a child of god.
Justice for brooks 2025
Eye for an eye.
The COs unalived Robert Brooks for what he did to his white gf.
Justice won't come u need street justice
Justice ... Kinda like what happened to Brooks
❤❤Sorry for your loss. No, it's all of our loss. This can happen to anybody that we love and care about. We all are related.

They will walk out free …I am sure about that 😢😢😢😢
God going to get them.
That was bad what they did to him, sad this is the kind of Amerikkka we live in!
It’s not racial. The other victims filed lawsuits against the same officers for beatings. They’re not black inmates. It’s not the skin, it’s that uniform & badge giving them immunity & power.
