This trial. This defendent.
This system.

I say that with little faith.
It boggles my mind. That this trial, allowed this defendant to be treated with the utmost kid gloves. Pausing the trial to explain every little detail on why something was ruled on.
People who pound the table yelling : innocent until proven otherwise, needs to seriously stop that b.s.
The guy was the driver. The guy plowed thru the crowd.
And I am to rally for his coming to court with ' he's innocent' label .
What nonsense!
I can see it if a person such as the central park five who were framed and judged before the trial without so much as an ounce of factual evidence..
But my gawd , the guy was ID'd, the SUV had all.the blood and skin from his victims. But we are to say, he is innocent up and until the jurors convene to deliberate. I just don't get it..

In prison, if a prisoner gets a cell mate who did something like kill or rape a child, he is required by jailhouse law to beat/maim said child killer. Brooks might get killed by another Black prisoner before a Neo-Nazi gets him.
That would be for the best-then no one can claim "racism". Sad that we have to count on prisoners delivering the justice our "justice system" won't. At least this one is getting locked up.

Yes, even Satan himself deserves a fair trial if he commits a crime in the USA. We expose criminals for what they are based on their actions, using the evidence of the crimes committed, and then give the power to a fair minded unbiased jury to decide his/her fate.

I agree that it is sad there is no death penalty there. Maybe this case will motivate residents to demand the death penalty be reinstated there.

Not everyone gets a trial when they are accused of something.

The judge was amazing. He got under her skin many times but she remained cool as possible. When he kept asking same things again and again she could have said "I've already ruled on that". That's all she had to do. When he got loud and upset she didn't immediately remove him, but let him yell. That was deliberate so that it couldn't be said he couldn't speak. It's when he 1. interrupts , or 2. doesn't answer a question, is she would she make a court ruling or waiver something he could have done.
It is being investigated by law enforcement.

Should is the key word. It isn't though. Either way, if we eliminate these criminals, we don't have to pay to house and feed them for life.

I knew Darrell Brooks was going to get life in prison. Wisconsin doesn't have the death penalty. Actually, Wisconsin as a state has one of the lower murder rates in the country. It's just Milwaukee that has a big problem.

And Darrell Brooks drove from Milwaukee to Waukesha to commit said murders. He committed this murder in Waukesha. 87% White, very Republican area. And children were among the dead too.

The thing is, hurting children isn't looked upon kindly. This is why Subway pedophile Jared Fogle was beaten severely in prison. This is why R. Kelly was attacked in jail while awaiting trial.

You should take comfort in how he was treated. Your justice system is measured by how fairly and properly it treats even the worst, most reprehensible scumbags. If that assclown can get a fair trial and every last bit of due process from our judicial system, then there's a glimmer of hope that either you or I could too.

How well you treat the worst among you is what defines your virtue and fairness.

He is flailing around trying to cause a mistrial and I'm like,..bro,...there is no reasonable doubt you did what you did,..you ran over a bunch of people and killed them. No amount of soft spoken banter is gonna get you outta this. You're done.
Because Hollywood has instilled in most American's that Perry Mason & Iron Side could have got him off the hook by way of word games.
