Not letting judge talk is out of arrogance not mental incompetence
Thank you. With out the lack of knowledge of what mentally incompetent means per the law. comments about “judge should have made the decision that he is incompetent 🤦🏻♀️ is🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
@@sravd6079 They're not talking law. He's talking common sense...which the law lacks these days. I'll take the common sense answer.
He knows exactly what he is doing. He is trying to game the system. He is completely competent to stand trial. His issue is that he is pure evil.
Can someone be too evil to stand trial? 🤔
It's a Hail Mary play, it's his only defense he has.
He knows what he's doing. He's being a pain in the *ss! He acts like he knows better and like he will teach them something. I'm not buying it. Just a narcissist trying to make it all about him and not about the fact people died because of him.
he's literally making the claim that if someone does something evil and public enough then they can't stand trial and should be just let go.
@autistic housewife problem is they can’t give him capital punishment, no matter how much public opinion says they should. Wisconsin doesn’t have capital punishment options. Wonder if they’re rethinking that mindset?
I'm an attorney and have a lot of experience with these "sovereign citizens" folks. I've never come across a sane one.
I don't think he really believes the SovCit nonsense, he is just going to use the BS to draw out the trial and to feed his narcissistic need for attention
I dealt with one a few years ago since I'm the VP of HR for a startup company. 100% one of the worst experiences of my professional life. Even hearing the term gets me a little panicky
You attorneys are the problem
I'm NOT an attorney... nor do I play one on tv... (sorry couldn't resist) anyway... they are VERY SANE... they want to claim this crap hoping that they can wiggle their way out of whatever trouble they're currently in... he understands.. they all understand... they're just trying to get out of trouble any way they can!!

I’m sure everyone in the court hates this guy and has had enough of him.
This is what this dude wants! He's not crazy, he's foolish. I'd let him represent himself and watch the jury find him guilty in an hour.
He is just following the standard sovereign citizen script, interrupting as often as possible, claiming that your name is a fake etc.
They claim that if they say "understand" that means they stand under the jurisdiction of the court, that's why they will never say that they understand.
Has it ever worked in their favour?

He's been evaluated three times. How many times are we going to evaluate him? The judge made the right decision.
Since he has been found competent to represent himself, it rules out any evaluation for insanity in future appeals I do believe.
@@pyregazer9210 competency and insanity are 2 different legal concepts. Competency is whether during the legal proceedings the defendant understands the charges against him and can aid in his own defense. Not guilty by reason of insanity defense focuses on the defendant’s state of mind at the time of the alleged crimes and the defense argues the defendant didn’t know right from wrong at the time he committed the crimes.
Brooks’ attorneys were planning on mounting an insanity defense but they withdrew the insanity plea a few months ago. Since he is not arguing the insanity plea at this trial, it’s not something he could later bring up on appeal.
@@pyregazer9210 he's clearly not insane

Judge made the right call IMO. She recognizes his behavior for what it is - a deliberate and knowing attempt to delay and obstruct. His refusal to say he "understands" anything isn't out of ignorance, but is a common sovereign citizen quirk. They believe that the word "understand" secretly means to "stand under," to declare yourself subject to authority. In their mythology, refusing to "understand" keeps police and courts from having power over you. The judge cleverly short-circuited that by asking him if he was "aware" instead.
She should have asked him if he comprehends instead of understand. Someone can be aware or informed, but still not understand/ comprehend. A future lawyer could claim he didn't understand the proceedings and choices in an appeal.
Simply change the language to "Do you comprehend".
The issue with your argument is that "understand" and "aware" have completely different meanings. Allow me to enlighten you and banish some of your ignorance. The word "understand" etymologically derives from Old English "understandan", which conveys certain ambiguities. "Understand" could be understood in the sense that it means "to comprehend an idea", but it could also mean "to view something in a particular way." These two meanings are not mutually exclusive. Because the suspect reasonably could have interpreted her question to mean the second sense of the word (in which it case it'd be completely reasonable of him to disagree because he does not see things the judge's way), then his answer to the question could easily be in the negative, whereas if the judge meant to use "understand" in a literal sense, then his answer could be in the affirmative. This is the judge's fault for not appreciating the nuances of language and anticipating how her audience might react to interrogatives that contain polysemous words such as "understand". Sometimes this happens when you hire a woman.
@@dennisg4053 How about, " ARE YOU FUGGING GETTING IT ?"
@@Zenigundam I'd “buy” the argument of the etymology of the word if the meanings of words stayed constant. Meanings of various words have an can change over time. Example: the word shambles. The original meaning was that of a meat market. The most common current meaning is a jumble or mess. Quite a change in 500 years or so. While meanings other words may not be so divergent, over time the fact remains that very often meanings of words do change in time. The etymology is still there but the meaning is not necessarily constant.
I wish in this fellows case if you could put him in a room with the relatives of his victims for one full hour unsupervised please. That would make ALL of us very happy. Justice would be served.
That's called vengeance. Not justice.

He knows, but it won't work.
depends on how you define "knows"
He thinks* he's doing something.
It'll backfire on him. Lmfao
Marie Pereira doesn't know what a sovereign citizen is apparently. Marie, he's playing word games with the "understanding" thing. That's his way of inanely saying that he doesn't acknowledge the court's jurisdiction over him. It has nothing to do with comprehension. He comprehends just fine.
He doesn't understand because he doesn't "stand under her or the court" ( in his tiny mind).
Just like ronnie o'neal had a "kong" hair cut, it represents a crown and ronnie was king of the courtroom!
Which is why she granted him the right to represent himself. What are you trying to say? Do you know more than she does? Do you think she took on this case without knowing anything about the sovereign citizen cuckoos?
@@misswellness9595 I think he is talking about the guest on the show, Marie, and not the judge. The guest seemed to think he isn’t competent b/c he doesn’t “understand” but we know and the judge knows that is just sov cit bs he’s trying to pull to disrupt the proceedings.
@@misswellness9595 pre sure OP made his point with slight sarcasm. Gotta be able to read between the lines and not get baited by superficial things
SovCits will argue about jurisdiction for hours..or state that they are planning to plead guilty BUT they need something explained a hundred times and then start with the jurisdiction again. They learn that script and its virtually impossible to get them off it.
He knows exactly what he's doing. He's enjoying this attention.
A shame that Wisconsin no longer has the death penalty.
Killing him changes nothing about the victims. It brings no justice
Amen

He understands everything. He refuses to use that word because he believes it means to 'stand under' the authority of the court. It's a sovcit tactic and she knows it. She's seen it before and is trying to work around it.
Bro, you killed six people. Give the victims the swift justice they deserve!

@@jamie.777 🤡
He has nothing to lose so he attempts to turn the court proceedings into a circus and the justice system ALLOWS him to.
I pity the judge, but so respect that she's willing to let him try. It's gonna be a rough road.
She is a respectful judge, because that is our system we give everyone their direct right to defend or be defended. But this man has shown that he has absolutely no remorse for his actions in killing six or seven people.
I do not think this is a good choice. He is just gonna outburst after outburst. We are already seeing it before day 1 on juror selection. He is gonna make this tedious and hurtful to the court and especially to all the victims he has already hurt.
Its his right do so, its not her choice
Suprised she hasnt pulled out a bottle of vodka and chugged it
Anyone who calls themself a sovereign citizen is delusional as only the JUDGE is soveREIGN which means KING over the citizens.
There have been a number of cases where someone particularly disruptive in court has been gagged. Can't really do that if they are representing themselves though.
Except judge removed him after 5th disruption this morning, 4 before potential jurors entered the court room.
Some kind soul invented the mute button, and I for one, am grateful AF. He gets more creative and entertaining when he's muted.
This was the exact scenario I predicted would happen. That he would not abide by judges rulings and courtroom decorum.
He crossed out "I understand". He's trying to set up a win on appeal. He'll then say, "I didn't understand and shouldn't have been allowed to represent myself".
He tried it
7:40,”well this is going to be a circus of a trial and it has not started yet.” Thanks to the judge for playing along with his games. Ridiculous!
He is really trying to play the system 🤦🏾♀️ this is going to be the biggest test of patience in her career. But I get the sense he has met his match. Let the circus begin…
They're missing the "sovereign citizen" aspect of this. I don't think that he actually thinks he's a sovereign citizen, but is instead planning to use that as a way to fight the case. If you ever hear someone say that they are sovereign citizen, things are about to get _buck wild_ and it's in your best interest to completely remove yourself from interaction with them. I say this from experience in a employment and human resources capacity and it was one of if not the worst situations I've ever had to deal with
_I don't think that he actually thinks he's a sovereign citizen, but is instead planning to use that as a way to fight the case._
This is _so_ important. There's a difference between incompetent and recalcitrant. He's trying to be so difficult using the SovCit nonsense that she appoints counsel against his will, so he can claim she violated his right to self-representation. That puts the judge in a wonderful catch-22, where the argument if she _doesn't_ appoint counsel will be that he clearly doesn't understand the nature of the proceedings and required appointed counsel.
A real SovCit would've have asked for her oath already, as well as contested jurisdiction (and probably commented on the flag).
@@jacksyoutubechannel4045 You probably watched the trial, but he has been doing exactly that basically every few hours. He asked on Thursday, "is this a military court, admiralty court, what is this? Where is your proof of juridicial sth sth ...i forget the English word for it, basically her oath and if she is even allowed to practice as a judge. He is something else.
But i get the impression that some people told him about that because he only knows the very basic things, like the name in capitol letters, that that's not him, the court question and her oath, but there is so much more to it, no? I remember hearing about that years ago, so i forgot most of it, but he doesn't come across as a guy who really believes in it and knows his stuff, it is just headline knowledge and he throws everything in the hope sth will stick.
He is the most insufferable person i have ever seen i am pretty sure.
Fun Fact: The right to self representation is not absolute and can be revoked for using it as a way to obstruct and delay regardless of competency. If he keeps going like this, he is gonna get Blandinoed.
Honestly in cases like this we should just take them out back and shoot them. He was undeniably the driver. He undeniably drove into a crowd full of children and innocent bystanders to his hate crime.
Sounds like he understands what's going on in the court, so he Knew what was going on when he was driving that SUV onto those people
I think he is competent - he can understand and communicate. He is going to cause problems regardless of whether he represents himself or had council. If he had been forced to keep council, then could he not have used “misrepresentation” as appeal grounds?
Yeah his behaviour in court is normal, and responds coherently to every question. Looks pre standard to me.
His goal probably is to mistrial the case IMO.
Its not that he can't represent himself, He is fully capable, but him thinking he is above the law and him believing he is the smartest person in the room at all times, is the problem.
I feel that he is actually threatening witnesses by saying they may be in danger if someone goes on internet and looks them up.
he's in no position to carry out any more threats.
I wouldn’t be shocked if he isn’t going back to his cell everyday pounding out letters to them. He has their jury selection applications. He’s just going to try and be as disruptive & combative as possible, and than scream about ‘his rights’
OMG the attorney's sitting next to him- their faces and how they're sitting says it all.
The victims should be allowed before anyone else. This cruel man wants to be a smartA. Prayers for familys.
He's making a mockery of the process.
How so?
The fatigue is real.
He is doing this to create a spectacle. He is using the Sovereign Citizen “script”. When he says he “doesn’t understand” what he is inferring is that as a free man, he doesn’t stand under the law, the court or the state. When he says that he wants to represent himself “pro persona”, he thinks it means as the person. That’s why he doesn’t agree to the phrase pro se, event though they essentially mean the same thing.
They should change the language from “ do you understand” to “ do you comprehend “ so that he can’t play word games with the court.
Or better yet, revoke his right to defend himself and reassign his public defenders. Restrain him and muffle him so that the court can proceed to mete out justice to this man instead of allowing this person to continue to create a spectacle in the court room.
Well said.
Ronnie o'neal III had a kong hair cut to represent a crown so everyone could see that he was the king of the courtroom.
Would you like to be restrained, and muffled at YOUR trial?
Just bring in lawyers for him and continue on. He obviously wants to play games instead of a defense

He understands perfectly. No need for a competency hearing.
If a defendant asks to defend themselves they may be capable. It does not mean they should. He will interrupt and disrupt this process every step of the way. It has NOTHING to do with his competency...he CHOOSES to be coy, argumentative and CHOOSES to live as a SovCit.
He needs to let the victims get the swift justice they deserve.
@@djpcinema He believes he already gave them that!!!
OMG...... just give him the drip in that seat in that courtroom.
Omg that's like ongoing torture towards the surviving Victims and families of the deceased! What a nightmare
4 separate doctors deemed him competent - he knows exactly what he's doing! He's able to sit & listen, he chooses not to
I believe the RUclipsr Irish Demon pointed out, the term "I Understand" to Sov Cits means I stand under your Authority, no matter how many times we you try to sparse words with Sov Cits, they will always play semantics with words. He is using the Sov Cit in Court Play Book at this point and the purpose is to delay and work towards a mistrial. They love to misinterpret meanings and request fictitious documentation and paper to try and disqualify every judge that rules on their case.
Yeah I saw that too. Love the guys videos. His and Team Skeptic explain Sov Zits, I mean Cits perfectly.
Do you have any data as to what percentage of "Sov Cits" presenting a defense within a court room are successful in dodging "the long arm of the law"?
Serious question.
By saying " I don't understand" he is saying 'I don't accept". He understands just fine.
I feel he understands a bunch more than he wants us to know and he's going to make this trial as costly and time consuming as possible !
That's why public hangings.
He is going to try and make enough havock to get the trial overturned. And the line about people being targeted through the internet is an attempt to scare people off. So he os working many phases trying to upset this trial in all means possible. Yeah, he is crazy. As a fox!.
He comprehends. He refuses to use the word "understand" because he takes it to mean that he "stands" "under" the authority of the court, something to which he does not consent.
He is a waste of taxpayers time and money. He’s a mockery of a human being.
Due process is not needed
Never say dat instead of that if you ever want to be taken seriously

He understands he just does not want to face the consequences
Throw him under the jail. Never to see the light of day. Should have been locked up years ago.
Oh he is fit to stand trial. This is how all these sovereign citizens behave. He is therefore also fit to represent himself

This jerk tried to argue first that Darrell Brooks isn’t even his name.
The so called ‘Sovereign Citizens’ do not define the word “understand” as a synonym of comprehend. They claim “to understand” means “to stand under” someone or something. Such as being under a Judge’s or Police Officer’s authority.

He WAS Evaluated By FOUR Different Drs., ANGER IS NOT A MENTAL ISSUE !
He's never had a competency hearing?
He's talking but not saying anything.. it's crazy!
Just a typical malignant narcissist. He decides his own rights and privileges, while you have none except for those he allows.
The judge has exercised all due diligence and an abundance of caution. He was already evaluated by FOUR mental health experts. She informed him that the trial would not be delayed due to his firing his attorneys. She informed him he would not have access to standby counsel through the PD office. She informed him that self-representation was foolish, and he decided he knew better. I'm sure he read something on the internet about it that he thought made sense. He made his little bed, and now we can all enjoy watching him crawl into it, kicking and screaming.
This judge has lost control of these proceedings.
Let him go free and see what happens to him.
5:15 Oh he fully understands. He is just playing a game
Amazing that this channel is one of the only places covering this story and this guy's bizarre behavior... Really shows the narrative on full display...
You have to realize that in sovereign citizen speak, “understand” means to “stand under “ or submit to someone else’s rule
He's only doing this to delay trial. It's a ridiculous stalling tactic that he's using and so the circus begins
Excellent judge, showing patience and impartiality.
They're gonna let this mad man represent himself? I would do anything to not even hear his voice if I was that judge.
Sounds like the lady is finding excuses for the jerk
This is going to be a long trial. 😪
If I were that judge, I wouldn’t have let him represent himself. He’s such a doofus.
He's a sovereign citizen and to them "understand" means "I stand under" which means they agree to your authority -- which they never do. He does not accept her authority as judge, he won't acknowledge his own name because it's spelled in capital letters. No surprise at ll he demands a copy of her oath and then he's going to demand proof of her "bond" -- these people have endless weird distortions of the English language and legal theories that are just plain bananas. It doesn't make him incompetent in the legal sense it makes him incorrigible.
He’s doing this on purpose, he’s not a dim as he’s trying to make out he is! He’s looking for a mistrial!
This is gonna be a nightmare
“Blocked” 😌
This trial should have started & been completed months ago. "Best Legal System In The World" ? I hardly think so . . .
This is the M.O. of sovereign citizens....trying to keep judge and jury confused with a bunch of paperwork and motions. THEY ALL DO IT!!
Oh my goodness! I heard about this!! :'( how absolutely tragic, all those innocent families just out enjoying a beautiful holiday together. I can't even imagine
It happened on TV, since it was live. It was horrible
3:39 WTH is he even talking about! He just likes to hear himself talk! Boy you are done, cooked, overdone, take you ASK to prison & be forgotten about!
The crime not talked about is how he was out on a $1k bond for trying to run someone over.
This is exactly why I couldn't believe she let him do this. It was obvious he was going to be nothing but a problem. All he is doing is trying to delay the proceedings.
Actually she didn't let him, it's the law!
Of course he understands, if he didn't he wouldn't know to cross out the word understand, because he wouldn't have understood it
He is trying to stall the process behaving like a cactus. He knows it's a losing battle, so he will try to mess it up as much as he can
He’s doomed. Can’t understand why he wants to represent himself. He’s not educated enough.
This trial will never be
What a joke. 🤦🏿♂️
He is completely competent. He’s playing games.
When a sovcit says " I do not understand", they really mean that they do not "stand under" or "accept". It's one of their tedious word games that they love to play.
Could you imagine trying to represent this fool? I’m sure his lawyers gladly walked away. 🤡
I know the current justice system is the best we have but as people, there should really be instances where these egregiously evil individuals are simply "taken out back" and removed from this earth. No room for people like this in this time.
The price of one bullet.
What a joke to a witness a man who thinks he's an intellect is not that a good reason to question his insanity.
This is going to be a mess.
Going to be a circus for certain. The only positive is more people will get to see the craziness that is Sovereign Citizens.
It's obstruction, not incompetence.
"With they file."
The judge has to take control and stop with the weak presence.
Dude needs to be permanently muted
