Judge to decide if Wisconsin parade suspect will stand trial for murder
[KOMONEWS] A judge is set to decide Friday whether a Milwaukee man accused of plowing his SUV through a Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring dozens more, will stand trial for murder.

Darrell Brooks
...racist would-be rapper, actual wife beater and career criminal, responsible for the Waukesha Christmas parade massacre...
Jr. is set to appear in Waukesha County court before Judge Michael Bohren for a preliminary hearing. Such hearings, when the judge decides whether there's enough evidence to hold a defendant for trial, are usually a formality but can shed light on defense and prosecution strategies.

According to the criminal complaint, Brooks drove his mother's maroon Ford Escape into the parade in downtown Waukesha on Nov. 21. He kept going despite coppers' demands to stop, with some officers telling Sherlocks it appeared the driver was trying to intentionally hit people and "citizen witnesses" telling detectives the SUV never slowed down.

Some of the people he hit flew up onto the hood of the Escape; at one point Brooks had to lean out the driver's window to steer because a person had landed on the windshield, according to the complaint.

Six people were killed and dozens more injured. District Attorney Susan Opper charged Brooks with six counts of first-degree intentional homicide a few days later. He would face life in prison if he's convicted on even one count. Opper this week added scores of additional charges, including reckless endangerment, hit-and-run involving death, bail jumping and battery.

Any possible motives remain unknown. Court documents filed Wednesday allege Brooks beat the mother of his child minutes before driving into the parade because she refused to bail him out of jail after he was arrested for allegedly running her over with the same vehicle earlier in November.

#1 Question: Were innocence family members MURDERED?
YES !

Is the Judge too stupid to understand a 2500 LBS vehicle is a weapon?

Seems So.

Start the Judges RECALL.

#5 Let's blame "SUV Violence."

Pay no attention to that trove of BLM-supporting social media posts.

#7 Ordered to stand trial. The judge mumbles "hot potato" and leaves it to the DA or some court appointed "expert" to engineer an exit ramp for the "Bubba Wallace of Wisconsin."

#8 Memory holed by American Pravda. Search for "site:nytimes.com" + Waukesha + Brooks yields no results since the week of the massacre, in November.

Not one damned mention. Total suppression of a deliberate race massacre by a BLM supporter.

Had it been W-on-B, we'd have heard about 24/7 for the last 10 weeks, Biden would be fulminating, and coast to coast candlelight vigils would be organized

#9 ^ By "candlelight vigil," Merrick, I assume you mean arson-driven BLM riots.

#10 Excuses... excuses... "He was high.... no responsible..."

Brooks' attorney, public defender Anna Kees, suggested that Brooks was high during the incident, noting that officers who arrested him noticed he smelled of marijuana and his eyes were red and glassy.

She maintained that he couldn't turn off the parade route because the side streets were barricaded and full of spectators. She noted, too, that he told detectives that he didn't mean to kill anyone and couldn't bring himself to look when detectives showed him photos of the carnage.

Opper countered that all Brooks had to do was stop the vehicle and even if he was high on marijuana he still committed multiple crimes.

MM, those would've happened if the cops had shot Brooks

#12 #10, yes, I can see it. The dope defense, or as it's known on the street, the "Get Out of Jail Freak" card...

#14 ^ Unless it's an illegal driving without a license. Often, by the time they kill, they have been soft-pedaled on multiple DUI stops.

#15 I was high a few times I have been arrested. The judge did not give 1 shit when sentencing.
