When someone says their conscience is clean after doing something horrendous. They don’t belong with society, they should be with others who don’t feel bad for the bad that they do to others.
It seems like DB genuinely believed that he was going to walk free because he thought that the jury was going to use their "power" of jury nullification. 🙄
@mollypitcher2232 3 children 2 girls and 1 boy. Xavier was 18 during trial. Had emotional issues his mother was trying to get him help for. Erika's daughter The youngest daughter was 7 during trial. His statement of his baby son he'd never seen.... Erika's daughter had a baby the summer before trial. That boy is who the convicted was referring to. From what I did hear, he'd never met the 7 yr old. Not seen Erika's daughter in many years. Same as his oldest son.
@@mollypitcher2232, Seriously? His kids didn’t do anything wrong. Homeland Security has more important things to do than to watch innocent children grow up and hold them accountable for their father’s actions. Get real. 🙄🤨
Is as the filing for an appeal. He filed last week. He requested a defence attorney from the court...The request was granted by the court..... I wish the best to his new attorney!!!!....
This case happened right after the Cruz jury spared his life. If the death penalty is legal, Cruz should have received that penalty. So many of us were worried ... it only takes one. Thankfully this jury did their job.
“Kids don’t stay kids forever” Mr Brooks states in his closing. When they are ran over in cold blood at the age of eight years old they do indeed stay a kid forever. I am so sad for all the victims and their loved ones. I pray God will heal and comfort your broken hearts.
It's all about him, his pain and suffering, his children, his dysfunctional childhood, his tears, his life ruined. Not one word about the suffering of the victims or family. That speaks volumes.
@@tommycoe2333 He said he was sorry it happened, yes. He never directly apologized to the victims. He never once expressed sympathy or empathy. He's sorry it happened because he got caught. He's sorry he is going to prison for the rest of his life.
@@ryancallsin Seeing just how violent, narcissistic, and abusive that man was to his own family members I'm so glad the kids he has are far away from them now.
@@joshwavy6671 I dunno, he could have actually expressed remorse for his actions. Actually reflected in his issues with rage. There are a lot of things he could have done, but didn't do. Instead, we have what he did do. Which was try to make himself a victim. I feel no sympathy for the man, especially since he decided to represent himself. He signed the waiver.
haha that's what I was thinking. If he can get automatically aquitted because the state of Wisconsin can't be brought into the courtroom, so can the sovereign citizen that runs him over the moment he steps outside.....
He was absolutely right when he said in the beginning of his speech that “there is a lot of information that the jury should be privy to, but there not”. He’s absolutely right! I think the jury should be “privy” to his past criminal record. This guy is a disgusting example of a human being.
He ruins it for every inmate that goes to jail and is truly remorseful for the mistakes they've made. There is no redeeming qualities in this man. He has no chance to live a meaningful life outside or inside of prison. He will never change because he's never wrong in his own eyes. But he is the reason most inmates aren't given a fair shake. When they do their time and repay their debt to society. They all get lumped in with guys like this.
He really has his nerve. The jury saw the multiple videos of him clearly driving and aiming the SUV to strike and run over innocent men, women, and children. He was seen looking out the window and smiling about the whole thing. He had law enforcement officers actually pounding on the vehicle itself to get him to stop. He acted like a disgusting jerk in court by openly disrespecting the judge, prosecutors, and witnesses; and if all that was not bad enough, he openly mocked the victims in court. His lone defense: He beeped his horn and the SUV was faulty.
That's not true. He finally showed real remorse during his closing statement. Unfortunately it's not remorse for what he did, or for those suffering from what he did. It's remorse from realizing his life is truly over, and he will never step out of his prison ever again. He's lucky he's in WI, and they don't carry the death penalty.
@@leighamoro Just to let you know, the DA was interviewed today and said this POS accused the victim's families of trying to "cash in" on this tragedy. This is who you are defending.
His narcissism prevents any feeling, emotion and empathy. He has none, it’s all an act to achieve his prime aims. (HG Tudor) He keeps repeating the same things, over and over and …🤡I’m sure the jurors will have absolutely no trouble sleeping at night when they find him guilty.
His extreme lack of empathy is incredible. He feels bad for himself discussing his children, but mocked a victim who emotionally detailed the loss of their mother.
@nategoeslive, EXACTLY!! When I saw him do that; tilt his head back and roll his eyes, I had to stop the video!! He show nothing but anger and disrespect for just about everyone in the courtroom and involved in this trial! He actually thought he was NOT going to prison?!
@MomCheeto4 HE ABSOLUTELY THOUGHT HE WOULD BE FOUND NOT GUILTY!! I HAVE LEARNED ALSO AFTER THE GUILTY VERDICT THAT HE CRIED ALL NIGHT...CRIED LIKE A SNIVELIN BISH!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@theresaharwell783 obviously I'm a bl if you can't tell but even I can't stand the usual suspects. They scream about others having privilege but they complain so much they even get extended privilege and still muddle it. It's like what more do you want mfr
These people are worthy to be in God's court in Heaven. He's draining what he put this judge and everyone through. He's acting as if the prosecution is setting him up in an unfair trial, because they were not privy to the information that he didnt present into evidence. Not one tear that. "The theatrics?" he's the only actor here.
that’s what happens when you have a mother who enables you your entire life. He has a victim mentality nothings his fault. He must of manipulated many people in his life just watching his police interview he thinks he’s slick . it’s disgusting
The Child Killer: “I’ve been called a lot of things, but a murderer is not one of them, never has been, never will be”. The Jury.. “give us about a hour and a half “ 😂😂😂
The scariest part of this for me is that he seems to truly believe everything he is saying. He truly doesn't think he deserves any consequences for his actions. Like he legit sees HIMSELF as the victim. That, is scary AF to me
This is just the victim mentality. They try and make you feel bad for them to get away with the wrong that they have done. He’s probably gotten away with a lot just by talking.
I have chosen to speak from the heart… What should have been said after this is: I’m deeply sorry to all those involved. I can’t do anything to make things right. I will respectfully accept any verdict. Furthermore I apologize to the judge and prosecution for my behavior in this court.
Ha! If he had any self awareness that would make him say something like this he would not be in this position. This is his destiny, to die in prison. Shout out to his mom for coddling him and bailing him out. Still making excuses for him. Rot in hell both.
He was in extreme DENIAL. If he spoke with his Mother everyday. I don't understand what could she have said. Or didn't say. This guy really believes his own bulllshyt. Anti social disorder or NOT I I would be so ashamed to be his Mom. Listen to how he states his conscience is clear an he's made peace. So basically iam OVER killing 6 people. Dude is a damn whack job in a different kind of way. Not medical attention way but PRISON way. He is an utter danger to society. He should have been separated along time ago. Sadly he was NOT ! Too many has suffered. Some died because of this jackazz. Look at his confidence...he's just fine with his actions.
The dumbest thing he ever said was “you won’t hear me argue facts”. Seriously? And then for him to think that the Jury would “nullify the law” that convicts him and just set him free. He’s such a maniacal bastard!
He already was on the losing end of the situation but with that comment"I will not argue facts" this guy stepped into a dimension in this world that I guess we are not privy to.
U hit the nail on the head. He acts manic at times and very narcissistic. I have a sperm donor that's a narcissist, so the 1st or 2nd day, I realized what he was. Narcissist have a 1 track mind. Wen they have a thght, that thght is right and there's no other way. Wats almost funny is he's so dumb, he doesn't realize the judge was going to be the one sentencing him. In his world uts about control. Confuse and blame is a common narcissistic tactic. This whole trial, that was his means. Make ppl lose their train of thght and bam , he's got ya. I saw it happen so many times. He's a vile and disgusting human. I agree he has NO CHARACTER and NO REDEEMING VALUE. I also Believe his mother, Dawn woods needs held accountable. Even tho , he said she walks Mile's to catch the bus to go to work, "he worried about that." IMO he most likely took over her vehicle and she was forced to walk to work. The least he cld do, if he was so worried , why not drive her!?!? He says he's had many jobs, imo that's a lie and so it wldnt be a problem to take his own mom to work but imo he didn't wanna get up. He's been to court 8x for failure to pay child support. He's a fake a phony, but with the overwhelming evidence, my ah ha moment was as he just said I, me me me, I me me I, I blew my horn and alerted ppl of my presence. Ok , if he knew to blow his horn HE SAW PPL. IMO this is shortly after the Rittenhouse trial and not many miles from its location. In my honest opinion, about halfway thru this became a hate crime. I believe his mom and grandma pumped and mom even said "if he got help sooner ,this wldnt have happened." So she's blaming da w hite man . Sad . I'm not racist but I believe he is and his mother is.
The problem is that he believes he is the smartest man in the room. That can be seen, when he says that the DA need a team to deal with him, during his statement before sentencing. He had zero awareness that she needed a team due to the voluminous amount of evidence. I am a smart guy, but you couldn't PAY me enough to represent myself. And if there was a day where I had a stroke and thought that I should represent myself, I could easily do a much better job than he did. I have yet to figure out the theme for his defense. He literally seemed to just throw different rationales against the wall and hope the jury accepts one of them.
@@kevinashley478 So I believe his prior attorneys had a defense for him. Temporary insanity as well as bringing up the fact that that model of car had been recalled numerous times. Once they did all the leg work and all the paperwork, he fired them. He figured that he would just use all those notes and things that they put in those banker boxes and he would be able to get himself concurrent sentences. If he played it correctly he could have gotten at most 30 years in a mental facility. With good behavior he would have been out in 12. Even the dumbest lawyer with a law degree could have actually got him that very sentence. Heck looking back on it I could have represented Daryl and gotten him that sentence of 30 years x6 plus 12 years for the other 67 counts. without adding on the five to be served concurrently in a mental institution. I'm telling you dude would have been home in 12 years. The reason why that did not work is because he truly is just evil. He's so evil that he didn't understand that throwing himself at the mercy of the Court would have actually done him some good. He's so evil he couldn't even play crazy right. Any person who has five psychiatrists tell you that you're not crazy is really of sound mind and body.
The prosecution literally said he was going to make that statement within 3 minutes of his closing argument. He called her a liar, and then proceeded to make the nullification statement within the first two minutes of his closing argument.
He has some nerve. Complaining about his loved one's suffering. Every single person suffering now, is because of his evil, selfish, cruel, deranged actions the day he ran over 6 people, causing their death, and injuring 60 others. I have compassion and empathy for everyone involved, including Brooks relatives. The only one I have no sympathy for is Darrell Brooks. He didn't have to barrel through innocent human beings at a Christmas parade. He chose to do that. Don't cry now, don't play the victim now. Take your punishment. Life in prison. And shut up...smh..🙄🙍🏽♀️
He caused nothing but disruptions, and disrespect for everyone in court.. such that the jury had to constantly be sent out because of his behavior. He tried to tie up the trial with his antics.. he even caused the jury undue stress with his delays...he's proven there are many personalities inside him.He can behave when needed, he can be calm when it fits him, he can bring on the sad crying when it fits him. he's definitely a character, and I'm just waiting on that judge to give him payback when she delivers the verdict of guilty.. then he will see who's in control
His “closing argument” was a “Poor Me!” Speech! Feel bad for me, “I killed 6 people and injured over 70 but poor me!” Just looking at his face makes me sick to my stomach, the only reason he “represented” himself was because the court denied his “insanity plea”, then he tries to blame it on his vehicle!!! What a disgusting human! Every single word out of his mouth was an excuse because he didn’t take accountability for his wreckless actions and behavior! The fact that he wanted to use jury nullification was just another excuse for him to get out of having to take responsibility and accountability for what he did! His body language throughout the whole trial along with his attitude is proof of how immature, disrespectful and arrogant he is. The fact that he said "I don't understand why this was God's Will" It wasn't, it was your blatant disregard for life and your stupid decisions that put you in this position, the fact that he tried blaming it on God is disgusting!! He's a true sociopath, he knew exactly what he was doing!
Can you imagine being such a narcissist that you not only are confident enough to represent yourself in a court of law like this, but give a closing statement deadass lying and digging yourself further and further. He thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room and we’ve all been around people like this.
@@MisterBones223 hey man we all have stints of pride when we think we are. Sounds like you’re aware of it, no reason to hate yourself over it. You didn’t murder anyone at least l

At his sentencing hearing the court left the front row behind Darrell Brooks for his family & friends.... They were going to make their speeches... Not one person turned up....
Who is shocked by that? I’m betting he’s an abusive ass to women and petulant child with men. He sure gets tough with women but doesn’t treat men the same
Not once, did Mr. Brooks apologize. That fact of the matter that he’s never offered condolences or Empathy to the families. Truly is heartbreaking 💔. To the families, I extend my Deepest and Sincere Condolences 💐. My your love ones Rest In Peace.
Not taking up for the guy by no means but you really didn't listen to his entire statement. Yes it's hard to listen to but you jumped on the comments just to write a false statement for likes. Sad. He did apologize to the families. No it may not have been to your expectations or mine but he did. He's not well in the head AT ALL but yet society wants to hold him to the same standards.
@@brandystapleton2713 He indirectly and vaguely apologized...for something, but he never actually apologized to the families or individual victims. He clearly still maintains none of this is his *fault* nor does he take any accountability. It also doesnt help that he has the temerity to lecture folks during his "speech".
@@ArterialJames1990 I hear you. But it’s not legal for the judge to allow it, as far as I understand. But I would have loved to see the looks on the faces of the jury.
I was thinking the same thing!! They came back with a verdict so fast they would have never considered doing so with the info or not! Then him bringing up the recall! Dude u turned into ppl! If your breaks went out why tf no ask the officers jumping in front of you for help? Why not turn AWAY FROM THE CROWDS of ppl? He went through like 6 blocks of the parade! Um I’m sorry that is no recall that is murder! I can’t stand this man.
Well there were a lot of racists and black supremacists on social media defending him and raising millions of dollars for his bail so obviously there are people out there who want to see him escape justice simply because of the color of his skin.
You hit the nail on the head. Mr Brooks could certainly benefit from your skill and accuracy, to capture so much within a few short sentences... instead he talked for an hour and said absolutely nothing. I still have no clue what his defence is. 🤔
For anyone who hasn't seen, right before this he was told for over 30 minutes by the judge not to bring up jury nullification and here it is literally the first thing he says.
What did you expect? This was a cheap show, a joke. That guy should have never been allowed to represent himself in front of a camera. Honestly the only thing this shitshow did for me is to lessen my opinion of a court. This man was not afraid of anything in that court that's why he could say anything without hesitation. The judge sounded like she was educating a teenager instead of talking to a proven criminal. What kind of asshole allows a psycho like that make a show out of his own trial? This was a perversion of the respect that's due in a courtroom. If it were up to me I would have had an officer with a nightstick smack him over his filthy mouth whenever he stepped out of line.
Even so, the jury would have no problem with the law when it comes to pure murder. Have you seen his tweet where he talks about knocking off white people?
@@Evilfish82 the law allows a person to represent themselves, the same way that it guarantees representation even when it's inaccessible by financial status. he is allowed to make that choice because it's flat the law. failing to allow this would be illegal. which means he's also allowed to make a fool of himself. which is exactly what he did, and what exactly....probably anyone will do when they elect to enter legal proceedings by themselves, rather than pick someone who does it professionally. the court does not care if you find it offensive that he is allowed to do that, because the court doesn't care about your feelings. the court cares about the law, the law says he is allowed to choose self representation. the court didn't make a show of anything. recording proceedings is what they do, if a news station chooses to give it this kind of air time, fine. frankly, i really don't get why it lessens your opinion. the court not only followed the law, but in doing so, allowed him to repeatedly dig a hole. the judge, through her saint-tier patience, made it stupidly easy for the jury to recognize how awful a person this guy is. then behold, he gets exactly what he deserved, while preserving due process. your opinion very evidently does not care about due process, which is the cornerstone of the US judicial system. it should never, ever, ever be skipped for any reason.
Which is the entire point of closing arguments. To reach a conclusion based on the factual evidence. Jurors are told to disregard any appeals to sympathy in their considerations.
This dude is the personification of writing a 5000 word essay at midnight in college on a book you skimmed cliff notes on. I listen to plenty of interrogations and trials, but I’ve never heard someone say so much yet say nothing at all. I kept zoning back to the video like “this guy is seriously still going ?” Forgetting it’s supposed to be a closing statement 🤦🏼♀️
@@amyhenningsgard8618 😅 i put it on hoping it’d send me to sleep, knowing it was a whole lot of nothing, but this clown gets me so infuriated I had to switch it off!! 😡 I feel so bad for the jury listening to this trash for weeks on end, and I can’t even comprehend how the victims/families feel having to listen to this self-serving, remorseless nonsense.
These poor people having to suffer through this “closing argument”. It’s like a hostage situation. His self pity must be so offensive to the friends and family members of the victims. I’m not sure I could sit through this.
Last 2 day's judge was struggling to catch a breath, wheezing. When she sent him over yonder her breathing seemed to improve , he started beggin she brought him back, went on his usual rant she stared wheezing again. This dude is a sadist!!
This should be played in every high school, college etc to show examples of what kind of person to avoid in any relationship form. They are dangerous, disconnected from reality, unable to accept accountability.
And in the end his closing argument was just as useless as his defense I like how he acts like he wasn’t solely responsible for the incident, like he’s emotionally distraught about it, the way he words it like he’s just another innocent bystander, it’s sickening and really shows his character
Mentally wrecked, for sure! Regardless what has gone on… what he did to those people, this in court circus, and/or anything else, this poor soul needs serious help.
Right...& at the end I'm wondering is he trying to say that he is blameless & didn't do it or is he trying to say that it was a mistake or. .WHAT exactly has he been trying to say about the CHARGED INCIDENTS...NOT a back & forth attempt to reestablish laws that have stood for 250 years..
He's been tripping throughout & his attempts to jump from one ideation to another have worn ME out...of course NONE of it worked in the end & even though he only has one life to give, he was sentenced for every personal that he tried to evince. ..
Right and he was supposed to make himself look innocent and give the facts of how he is innocent and he did None of that he literally made himself look worse n then saying the prosecution and the judge trying to put all the blame on him when he the one who murdered and injured dozens of people like this dude will never ever get it 🙄🤦♀️

Damn, what’s with these people always popping out kids they don’t even want and can’t take care of. See this is exactly why access to birth control and abortion is so important. Who knows how much better Erika’s life could’ve been if she was on birth control and didn’t get pregnant by Brooks and wasn’t shackled to him for the rest of her life. Then this whole parade incident would’ve never happened.
It’s clear he thinks the PUNISHMENT and the COURT is why his family is suffering and not realizing that his horrific actions are why his family is suffering !!
His only real "family" is his mother, who allowed him to live at her house (but his sleeping in the red SIV with his girlfriend, who had moved into a women's shelter prior to the crimes). None of his children had lived with him or even been minimally supported financially by him. He had no job, either. Even the SUV belonged to his mother.
The insane part is he actually believes he deserves freedom and that he influenced the jury. If only he could hear the thoughts in the jury’s minds he’d have a real awakening. The narcissistic nerve is unbelievable.
Hes delusional, hes not a narcissist. He honestly thinks that blowin his horn means that he didn't murder those people, hes delusional. Second hes saying that hes innocent of murder not that he didn't do the crime also a delusional thing to think. This is a prime example of the failure of our mental healthcare system in this country.
@@dreadwanderer681 If a person is a psychopath, they are very likely, or pretty much also a narcissist.

He is a sociopath, more than likely, because he is not intelligent enough nor organized enough to be considered a psychopath.
It's ironic he speaks about his nieces and nephews who apparently have to suffer from bullies, threats, and hate mail. Yet, he was charged with shooting at and trying to kill his own nephew. But had he accepted responsibility for his actions from the very beginning, they could have been spared from all of that.
He appeared with two attorneys for a hearing last week. Three charges.Two related to Erika Patterson and one related to his nephew. Hearing moved to February 2023.

The nerve to ask us to open our hearts while you closed yours as you hit the accelerator and used your car as a weapon to strike innocent people into the air to their death.
I'm just glad he clarified "I don't have a well rehearsed, prepared speech". I mean this whole trial he has been so well spoken, well thought out, cogent and logical.
He is totally disgusting to try and paint himself as a "loving father" of 3 children, claiming he "cut their inbiblical cords". He wants the jury to forget that none of his children ever lived with him and highly unlikely he ever paid any child support. He's disgusting. And spare us the "woe is me" routine about not being able to see your newborn child. He doesn't give a damn about his children.
What Brooks has done in his closing statement is just make people loath him even more than they already do. We just want him thrown into the solitary confinement for life

I can't believe that he has the narcissism to spout off on how the prosecutors don't care about the lives of the victim, whilst he was the one who literally murdered them. Insanity. And the look of pure hatred on their faces when he said that purely captured what everybody felt.

When hes on a time out for not being able to control his rage, while on trial for taking 6lives, and and hurting hundreds more. All the kids wanted that day was to get candy, see Santa and because of his rage because of his hate, because of him they all had to grow up faster.

And to think they just wanted to see santa 😪🤧😪 They need to take old sparky out of retirement and send it to WI and give him a seat
He boasted that he cut his babies umbilical cord and held his children before their mother even did. … I bet he threw this in her face even though she carried them for 9 months and he didn’t 😳🤔😳 Classic narcissist.
He has four children by four different women. How much do you want to bet he doesn’t pay child support to any of them. The mothers are probably on welfare.
'It takes a lot of guts to be here, with this amount of pressure. I bet a lot of people wouldn't want to be in your position right now...'... Are you kidding? This is probably the easiest decision they've had to make. They had a harder time deciding what to eat for lunch than this 🤣🤣

Yall gotta see how he makes the best prosecutor though.
The jury gave his newborn child a wonderful blessing.
He has five mini-me's out there. I hope Dept of Homeland Security monitors their movements.
@mollypitcher2232 3 children 2 girls and 1 boy.
Xavier was 18 during trial. Had emotional issues his mother was trying to get him help for.
Erika's daughter
The youngest daughter was 7 during trial.
His statement of his baby son he'd never seen....
Erika's daughter had a baby the summer before trial. That boy is who the convicted was referring to.
From what I did hear, he'd never met the 7 yr old. Not seen Erika's daughter in many years.
Same as his oldest son.
He's lying about a letter from his daughter! His kids don't even know him!!
@laurieschuett6109 he certainly lied about his kids.
His ' hates cursive writing baby girl ' from what I've read never even met him.
@@mollypitcher2232, Seriously? His kids didn’t do anything wrong. Homeland Security has more important things to do than to watch innocent children grow up and hold them accountable for their father’s actions. Get real. 🙄🤨
Expecting the jury to nullify his guilty conviction is easily the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of in my entire life.
Is as the filing for an appeal.
He filed last week. He requested a defence attorney from the court...The request was granted by the court.....
I wish the best to his new attorney!!!!....
Exactly! What conviction are they possibly going to nullify? Murder? No, so nothing else matters.
@@janewaterfield648 I feel really bad for public defenders sometimes, they have to deal with people like him.
A jury did nullify the law recently. A father killed his daughters rapist. The jury can nullify the law for hero’s. Not ghetto narcissistic murders.
This case happened right after the Cruz jury spared his life. If the death penalty is legal, Cruz should have received that penalty. So many of us were worried ... it only takes one. Thankfully this jury did their job.
He doesn't even pay for his kids but doesn't hesitate to use them as a manipulation tool in court. Disgusting!

@@joshwavy6671 I dunno, he could have actually expressed remorse for his actions. Actually reflected in his issues with rage. There are a lot of things he could have done, but didn't do.

He was absolutely right when he said in the beginning of his speech that “there is a lot of information that the jury should be privy to, but there not”. He’s absolutely right! I think the jury should be “privy” to his past criminal record. This guy is a disgusting example of a human being.
He ruins it for every inmate that goes to jail and is truly remorseful for the mistakes they've made. There is no redeeming qualities in this man. He has no chance to live a meaningful life outside or inside of prison. He will never change because he's never wrong in his own eyes. But he is the reason most inmates aren't given a fair shake. When they do their time and repay their debt to society. They all get lumped in with guys like this.

YES 👍🖐️
Absolutely
Exactly!
Very true
imagine if the prosecutor actually said this during rebuttal
He really has his nerve. The jury saw the multiple videos of him clearly driving and aiming the SUV to strike and run over innocent men, women, and children. He was seen looking out the window and smiling about the whole thing. He had law enforcement officers actually pounding on the vehicle itself to get him to stop. He acted like a disgusting jerk in court by openly disrespecting the judge, prosecutors, and witnesses; and if all that was not bad enough, he openly mocked the victims in court. His lone defense: He beeped his horn and the SUV was faulty.
Was it proven or not about the faulty vehicle..
@@johnscott7195 It was not faulty. Well yeah the driver has some screws loose and his timing is off
Maybe he was going to the store
We can all see his conscience is clear, he has zero remorse for any of his victims.
My conscience would nnnever be clear if I was involved in an accident where someone was killed, even if I wasn't to blame.
That's not true. He finally showed real remorse during his closing statement. Unfortunately it's not remorse for what he did, or for those suffering from what he did. It's remorse from realizing his life is truly over, and he will never step out of his prison ever again. He's lucky he's in WI, and they don't carry the death penalty.
That isn’t true. He has cried , he has shown he feels horrible even jail conversations with his own mother.
@@leighamoro Just to let you know, the DA was interviewed today and said this POS accused the victim's families of trying to "cash in" on this tragedy. This is who you are defending.
His narcissism prevents any feeling, emotion and empathy. He has none, it’s all an act to achieve his prime aims. (HG Tudor)
He keeps repeating the same things, over and over and …🤡I’m sure the jurors will have absolutely no trouble sleeping at night when they find him guilty.
His extreme lack of empathy is incredible. He feels bad for himself discussing his children, but mocked a victim who emotionally detailed the loss of their mother.
Since this 'incident' was God's will, then he can't be upset that it is now God's will that he spend the rest of his life in prison.

These people are worthy to be in God's court in Heaven. He's draining what he put this judge and everyone through.

The scariest part of this for me is that he seems to truly believe everything he is saying. He truly doesn't think he deserves any consequences for his actions. Like he legit sees HIMSELF as the victim. That, is scary AF to me
Thats a narrsacist for you they don't care about anything or anyone but themselfs theu don't cry they don't show emotion or empathy.
Single parent home with nobody to tell him know or beat his ass like a father should. Did you see the moms reaction, she wanted him free lol
The scary thing is there are thousands more of him out there walking around and driving right now
This is just the victim mentality. They try and make you feel bad for them to get away with the wrong that they have done. He’s probably gotten away with a lot just by talking.
He don't believe that garbage he been getting away so long he thought he would now his own mom scared of him
I have chosen to speak from the heart… What should have been said after this is: I’m deeply sorry to all those involved. I can’t do anything to make things right. I will respectfully accept any verdict. Furthermore I apologize to the judge and prosecution for my behavior in this court.
Best statement I've heard 💯💯💯💯💯
Or he should’ve said “I’m a evil POS that should burn in hell.”
Ha! If he had any self awareness that would make him say something like this he would not be in this position. This is his destiny, to die in prison. Shout out to his mom for coddling him and bailing him out. Still making excuses for him. Rot in hell both.

Dude is a damn whack job in a different kind of way. Not medical attention way but PRISON way.
He is an utter danger to society. He should have been separated along time ago.
Sadly he was NOT ! Too many has suffered. Some died because of this jackazz. Look at his confidence...he's just fine with his actions.
The dumbest thing he ever said was “you won’t hear me argue facts”. Seriously? And then for him to think that the Jury would “nullify the law” that convicts him and just set him free. He’s such a maniacal bastard!
He already was on the losing end of the situation but with that comment"I will not argue facts" this guy stepped into a dimension in this world that I guess we are not privy to.
U hit the nail on the head. He acts manic at times and very narcissistic. I have a sperm donor that's a narcissist, so the 1st or 2nd day, I realized what he was. Narcissist have a 1 track mind. Wen they have a thght, that thght is right and there's no other way. Wats almost funny is he's so dumb, he doesn't realize the judge was going to be the one sentencing him. In his world uts about control. Confuse and blame is a common narcissistic tactic. This whole trial, that was his means. Make ppl lose their train of thght and bam , he's got ya. I saw it happen so many times. He's a vile and disgusting human. I agree he has NO CHARACTER and NO REDEEMING VALUE. I also Believe his mother, Dawn woods needs held accountable. Even tho , he said she walks Mile's to catch the bus to go to work, "he worried about that." IMO he most likely took over her vehicle and she was forced to walk to work. The least he cld do, if he was so worried , why not drive her!?!? He says he's had many jobs, imo that's a lie and so it wldnt be a problem to take his own mom to work but imo he didn't wanna get up. He's been to court 8x for failure to pay child support. He's a fake a phony, but with the overwhelming evidence, my ah ha moment was as he just said I, me me me, I me me I, I blew my horn and alerted ppl of my presence. Ok , if he knew to blow his horn HE SAW PPL. IMO this is shortly after the Rittenhouse trial and not many miles from its location. In my honest opinion, about halfway thru this became a hate crime. I believe his mom and grandma pumped and mom even said "if he got help sooner ,this wldnt have happened." So she's blaming da w hite man . Sad . I'm not racist but I believe he is and his mother is.
The problem is that he believes he is the smartest man in the room. That can be seen, when he says that the DA need a team to deal with him, during his statement before sentencing. He had zero awareness that she needed a team due to the voluminous amount of evidence. I am a smart guy, but you couldn't PAY me enough to represent myself. And if there was a day where I had a stroke and thought that I should represent myself, I could easily do a much better job than he did. I have yet to figure out the theme for his defense. He literally seemed to just throw different rationales against the wall and hope the jury accepts one of them.
@@kevinashley478 So I believe his prior attorneys had a defense for him.
Temporary insanity as well as bringing up the fact that that model of car had been recalled numerous times.
Once they did all the leg work and all the paperwork, he fired them. He figured that he would just use all those notes and things that they put in those banker boxes and he would be able to get himself concurrent sentences. If he played it correctly he could have gotten at most 30 years in a mental facility. With good behavior he would have been out in 12.
Even the dumbest lawyer with a law degree could have actually got him that very sentence.
Heck looking back on it I could have represented Daryl and gotten him that sentence of 30 years x6 plus 12 years for the other 67 counts. without adding on the five to be served concurrently in a mental institution. I'm telling you dude would have been home in 12 years.
The reason why that did not work is because he truly is just evil.
He's so evil that he didn't understand that throwing himself at the mercy of the Court would have actually done him some good.
He's so evil he couldn't even play crazy right. Any person who has five psychiatrists tell you that you're not crazy is really of sound mind and body.
He thought somebody would give him a Black-Pass
The prosecution literally said he was going to make that statement within 3 minutes of his closing argument. He called her a liar, and then proceeded to make the nullification statement within the first two minutes of his closing argument.
😂😂😂 yea I caught that too
He has some nerve. Complaining about his loved one's suffering. Every single person suffering now, is because of his evil, selfish, cruel, deranged actions the day he ran over 6 people, causing their death, and injuring 60 others. I have compassion and empathy for everyone involved, including Brooks relatives. The only one I have no sympathy for is Darrell Brooks. He didn't have to barrel through innocent human beings at a Christmas parade. He chose to do that. Don't cry now, don't play the victim now. Take your punishment. Life in prison. And shut up...smh..🙄🙍🏽♀️
He's a selfish piece of work.
He caused nothing but disruptions, and disrespect for everyone in court.. such that the jury had to constantly be sent out because of his behavior. He tried to tie up the trial with his antics.. he even caused the jury undue stress with his delays...he's proven there are many personalities inside him.He can behave when needed, he can be calm when it fits him, he can bring on the sad crying when it fits him. he's definitely a character, and I'm just waiting on that judge to give him payback when she delivers the verdict of guilty.. then he will see who's in control
I completely agree!!!
Perfect comment !
Say it again,
His “closing argument” was a “Poor Me!” Speech! Feel bad for me, “I killed 6 people and injured over 70 but poor me!” Just looking at his face makes me sick to my stomach, the only reason he “represented” himself was because the court denied his “insanity plea”, then he tries to blame it on his vehicle!!! What a disgusting human! Every single word out of his mouth was an excuse because he didn’t take accountability for his wreckless actions and behavior! The fact that he wanted to use jury nullification was just another excuse for him to get out of having to take responsibility and accountability for what he did! His body language throughout the whole trial along with his attitude is proof of how immature, disrespectful and arrogant he is. The fact that he said "I don't understand why this was God's Will" It wasn't, it was your blatant disregard for life and your stupid decisions that put you in this position, the fact that he tried blaming it on God is disgusting!! He's a true sociopath, he knew exactly what he was doing!
I was so glad that Judge Dorow addressed that in sentencing. DARRELL BROOKS would never be an instrument of God Satan yes definitely but not God
"It was God's will that this happened. So it can't be my fault."

For anyone who hasn't seen, right before this he was told for over 30 minutes by the judge not to bring up jury nullification and here it is literally the first thing he says.
What did you expect? This was a cheap show, a joke. That guy should have never been allowed to represent himself in front of a camera. Honestly the only thing this shitshow did for me is to lessen my opinion of a court. This man was not afraid of anything in that court that's why he could say anything without hesitation. The judge sounded like she was educating a teenager instead of talking to a proven criminal. What kind of asshole allows a psycho like that make a show out of his own trial? This was a perversion of the respect that's due in a courtroom. If it were up to me I would have had an officer with a nightstick smack him over his filthy mouth whenever he stepped out of line.
🤣😂 Like a defiant child. He's so disrespectful and rude it's unbelievable.
Yea. They knew he was going to do it. He actually thought anyone on that jury was going to let him off on killing all those people.
Even so, the jury would have no problem with the law when it comes to pure murder. Have you seen his tweet where he talks about knocking off white people?
@@Evilfish82 the law allows a person to represent themselves, the same way that it guarantees representation even when it's inaccessible by financial status. he is allowed to make that choice because it's flat the law. failing to allow this would be illegal.
which means he's also allowed to make a fool of himself. which is exactly what he did, and what exactly....probably anyone will do when they elect to enter legal proceedings by themselves, rather than pick someone who does it professionally.
the court does not care if you find it offensive that he is allowed to do that, because the court doesn't care about your feelings. the court cares about the law, the law says he is allowed to choose self representation.
the court didn't make a show of anything. recording proceedings is what they do, if a news station chooses to give it this kind of air time, fine.
frankly, i really don't get why it lessens your opinion. the court not only followed the law, but in doing so, allowed him to repeatedly dig a hole. the judge, through her saint-tier patience, made it stupidly easy for the jury to recognize how awful a person this guy is.
then behold, he gets exactly what he deserved, while preserving due process.
your opinion very evidently does not care about due process, which is the cornerstone of the US judicial system. it should never, ever, ever be skipped for any reason.
“ you won’t hear me argue facts.” The first truth he said the entire trial.

@@amyhenningsgard8618 😅 i put it on hoping it’d send me to sleep, knowing it was a whole lot of nothing, but this clown gets me so infuriated I had to switch it off!! 😡
I feel so bad for the jury listening to this trash for weeks on end, and I can’t even comprehend how the victims/families feel having to listen to this self-serving, remorseless nonsense.
Perfect assesment. There ain't no Cliff Notes to freedom when you're guilty as hell.
These poor people having to suffer through this “closing argument”. It’s like a hostage situation.
His self pity must be so offensive to the friends and family members of the victims. I’m not sure I could sit through this.
Well said
If this was x row his final words would start from "Chapter 1: How the Earth was formed"
It is
His closing is about how he is the victim. What a true monster wearing human skin.
Victim yall
yes he had no empathy, and made this all about him and what this has put him and his family through..
He sounds like Alex Jones or Donald Trump…..I’M A VICTIMMMMMMMM!

The state prosecutor and her team LITERALLY look like they have been through a battle!!! The exhaustion and disgust in all their faces and bodies
Last day before witness impact statements, judge's voice was horse, she is exhausted by all the drama ALWAYS.
Ikr. They are DONE lights Out
Last 2 day's judge was struggling to catch a breath, wheezing.
When she sent him over yonder her breathing seemed to improve , he started beggin she brought him back, went on his usual rant she stared wheezing again.
This dude is a sadist!!
I'd be exhausted too if i was arguing with pure nonsense for weeks. These people deserve the LONGEST vacation. They earned it
HE DRAINED THEM!! I bet they went home and DRANK SMOKED WHATEVER TO MAKE THEM FEEL BETTER
His mother should be locked up with him for getting him out of jail
And letting him take her car!! She's definitely the reason why he is the why he is!!
And letting him drive her vehicle knowing he didn't even have a driver's license
This should be played in every high school, college etc to show examples of what kind of person to avoid in any relationship form. They are dangerous, disconnected from reality, unable to accept accountability.

Glad there is a time limit. Guy loves to hear himself talk.
And in the end his closing argument was just as useless as his defense
I like how he acts like he wasn’t solely responsible for the incident, like he’s emotionally distraught about it, the way he words it like he’s just another innocent bystander, it’s sickening and really shows his character
Mentally wrecked, for sure!
Regardless what has gone on… what he did to those people, this in court circus, and/or anything else, this poor soul needs serious help.
Right...& at the end I'm wondering is he trying to say that he is blameless & didn't do it or is he trying to say that it was a mistake or.
.WHAT exactly has he been trying to say about the CHARGED INCIDENTS...NOT a back & forth attempt to reestablish laws that have stood for 250 years..
He's been tripping throughout & his attempts to jump from one ideation to another have worn ME out...of course NONE of it worked in the end & even though he only has one life to give, he was sentenced for every personal that he tried to evince.
..
@@zoritaindavis6828 indeed! The sentence he got made it all worth it!
859 years on top of 6 life sentences…

He takes no accountability for what he did. It’s MIND BOGGLING how he can stand up there so heartless and speak this rubbish.
Zero and blamed everyone and everything
He’s so disgusting. Crying for himself.
THAT'S WHAT I'M SCREAMING 😱
My closing statement: I'm a psychopath that thinks he's a genius.
Say it again. Garage in the first degree!
Right and he was supposed to make himself look innocent and give the facts of how he is innocent and he did None of that he literally made himself look worse n then saying the prosecution and the judge trying to put all the blame on him when he the one who murdered and injured dozens of people like this dude will never ever get it 🙄🤦♀️

Soon, he will be full of someone else 😉
He is past sick
“I haven’t been able to hug kiss or meet my newborn.” Damn man, maybe you shouldn’t have put yourself in that position.
He said he had 3kids tho 18,14?,7 lol
He’s a liar his 14-15 yr old has a baby….
Exactly! But you reap what you sow.
Disgusting how he’s using an innocent child to protect and manipulate others.
@@ArterialJames1990 His 15 year old daughter with Erika Patterson gave birth in May 2022.
He himself had a son born in June 2022... Hence he stated he has never met his baby boy...
@@janewaterfield648 That’s such a shame. Following in her mother’s footsteps and giving birth at 15… apple doesn’t fall far from the tree unfortunately and I’m sure having unstable parents and lack of a father had a great impact on her. Hopefully when the baby grows up, s/he can break the cycle of poverty and dysfunction. And doesn’t Erika have 5 kids, none of which she has custody of (according to Darrell)? Damn, what’s with these people always popping out kids they don’t even want and can’t take care of. See this is exactly why access to birth control and abortion is so important. Who knows how much better Erika’s life could’ve been if she was on birth control and didn’t get pregnant by Brooks and wasn’t shackled to him for the rest of her life. Then this whole parade incident would’ve never happened.
And it’s not his newborn son. It’s his 15 year old whore daughter’s kid. It’s his grandson. Disgusting!
Darrel’s speech straight from the heart. What heart??
It’s clear he thinks the PUNISHMENT and the COURT is why his family is suffering and not realizing that his horrific actions are why his family is suffering !!
His only real "family" is his mother, who allowed him to live at her house (but his sleeping in the red SIV with his girlfriend, who had moved into a women's shelter prior to the crimes). None of his children had lived with him or even been minimally supported financially by him. He had no job, either. Even the SUV belonged to his mother.
His family is suffering because of his actions.
And 0 of his kids live with him, he doesn't support them but has the audacity to gt up there and cry for hisself and hisself only!!
@@arthursmith6854 Amen!! Exactly!!
Classic narcissistic behavior
I've never seen anyone with less self-awareness.
Seriously. He’s over taken my boss for least self awareness ever.
It’s sad how many people In the world have zero self awareness in 2022 and counting…just sad.
IT'S MIND BLOWING!!! 🤬🤬🤬
Wow this guy's a real genius. There's no way the jury can convict after listening to that touching speech.
Lol!!! For sure! 🙄

😂
HELL, I CRIED THROUGH THE WHOLE THING... POOR GUY...
@@donaldmarusak6501 LOL, Brooks found not guilty and the judge was so moved by his speech that she let everybody in the entire jail go free.
ITS ALL ABOUT HIM.Not one mention of the people he murdered.Great father who never ever supported his children..
The insane part is he actually believes he deserves freedom and that he influenced the jury. If only he could hear the thoughts in the jury’s minds he’d have a real awakening. The narcissistic nerve is unbelievable.
Hes delusional, hes not a narcissist. He honestly thinks that blowin his horn means that he didn't murder those people, hes delusional. Second hes saying that hes innocent of murder not that he didn't do the crime also a delusional thing to think. This is a prime example of the failure of our mental healthcare system in this country.
@@aprilh8022 No. He's actually a sociopath. He was diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder aka Psychopathy/Sociopathy.
@@dreadwanderer681 If a person is a psychopath, they are very likely, or pretty much also a narcissist. Those overlap.
“If a person has psychopathic traits, then they tend to have narcissistic and Machiavellian traits too.”
Machiavellians are sly, deceptive, distrusting, and manipulative. They are characterized by cynical and misanthropic beliefs, callousness, a striving for … money, power, and status, and the use of cunning influence tactics.
@@dreadwanderer681 when was he diagnosed with all that?
@@LaylaOlsen during his psych evaluation to find if he was fit to stand trial or possibly before. They said he does have a personality disorder but did not say which one. With further investigation you will find that he was diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder. Not to mention that anyone with a moderate understanding of that disorder and personality disorders in general could see it in his actions and behavior clear as day. He is a sociopath, more than likely, because he is not intelligent enough nor organized enough to be considered a psychopath.
It's ironic he speaks about his nieces and nephews who apparently have to suffer from bullies, threats, and hate mail. Yet, he was charged with shooting at and trying to kill his own nephew. But had he accepted responsibility for his actions from the very beginning, they could have been spared from all of that.
He appeared with two attorneys for a hearing last week. Three charges.Two related to Erika Patterson and one related to his nephew. Hearing moved to February 2023.
DB was wheeled in strapped to a wheelchair. He did not speak.
I hope for all concerned a plea deal will be the outcome. A complete waste of tax payers money if a jury trial takes place.
@@janewaterfield648 Sorry. He deserves no plea deal.
Wait, what happened with the nephew?
@@ijustchangedmyname7794 Darrell Brooks shot at the car his nephew was driving. There was a passenger in the car. The nephew brought the charge via the state.
@@janewaterfield648 normally I would agree with DB and the waste of tax payer money but I think he's the exception. DB is simply a menace to society and whether his mom and granny want to admit , deep down they know it as well. The sooner he gets used to the fact a appeals or another trial of any charge is futile, the better off we will all be.
His constant behavior during this trial proved what type of man this guy really is!
bully, narcissist, murderer, abuser, idiot!

I'm just glad he clarified "I don't have a well rehearsed, prepared speech". I mean this whole trial he has been so well spoken, well thought out, cogent and logical.
Hahaha - I’ve very rarely witnessed such a pathetic liar that actually thinks anyone believes him.
The jury heard you Mr broooks, they did what's right.
He is totally disgusting to try and paint himself as a "loving father" of 3 children, claiming he "cut their inbiblical cords". He wants the jury to forget that none of his children ever lived with him and highly unlikely he ever paid any child support. He's disgusting. And spare us the "woe is me" routine about not being able to see your newborn child. He doesn't give a damn about his children.
The children he fathered with a minor? Let‘s never forget that as well
He doesn't have a newborn; he was talking about his daughter's new baby. He knew the jury would be ignorant of that and took advantage.
The county raised them as in we the people..
@@cee-emm Really? His daughters are 14 and 7 so history repeats itself. His sons Mom was 14.
“Unbiblical” cord. Play it back😂😂😂😂😂
10:02 Lying about the car being a recall with malfunctioning acceleration is bold
What Brooks has done in his closing statement is just make people loath him even more than they already do. We just want him thrown into the solitary confinement for life
I want him to be in general population....... every day will be a lesson in pain for him. The beatings will be ferocious.
Have you seen the movie death of Stalin? Remember that scene where they killed the fat guy by bullet in the head syndrome? The military leader after popping him was "There, It's done, take a look if you like." That seems like a fair punishment here. *BANG* Next case.
@@PreservingHumanity to easy of a death.. he doesn’t deserve a quick death. He should suffer like all the families are suffering. Life in jail with solitary confinement FOREVER!
@@impactrc6427 I understand the suffering but in reality humanity is better off with him in the dirt FOREVER. No taxpayer dollars going to his meals, water, or housing. No chance of corrupt people letting him out on parole. Just *BANG* next case. Im ok with that. The people involved are suffering regardless of the verdict and sentence. To me the only decent outcome is one where people like this are in the dirt. To me a sentence of a hot fiery place full of regret and anguish, screaming and gnashing of teeth, is a sentence far more decent for men like this than life alone. Death is sometimes the best option. Torture isn't morally acceptable in the publics eye. Solitary is not really tortuous enough. Death and Hell is decent enough.
@@PreservingHumanity you’re right. Society is better off without this person.
I can't believe that he has the narcissism to spout off on how the prosecutors don't care about the lives of the victim, whilst he was the one who literally murdered them. Insanity. And the look of pure hatred on their faces when he said that purely captured what everybody felt. Bravo to the prosecution, judges, bailiffs and everybody on this case for dealing with this narcissistic, idiotic, delusional MURDERER, which is what he is no matter how much he tries to deny it.
Don't forget he said it was God's will that this happened and no one will know why. He's blamed everyone EXCEPT himself.
Oh narcissism goes DEEP to no end beyond belief. It’s simply best to avoid them by all means.
@@SmileyAdventures exactly run from them
@@shaemousegenx yes exactly, unbelievable, sickening how delusional that he is , he is sooo beyond having any remorse, Lord help us, he is a waste of a human
What got me more is when he said he wasn't just reading a book, it was The Book. The judge agreed and he sarcastically laughed and said well some of us Live by it. When hes on a time out for not being able to control his rage, while on trial for taking 6lives, and and hurting hundreds more. All the kids wanted that day was to get candy, see Santa and because of his rage because of his hate, because of him they all had to grow up faster. They will forever remember that day, the mental scares can sometimes be worse than the physical scares. And to think they just wanted to see santa 😪🤧😪
They need to take old sparky out of retirement and send it to WI and give him a seat

He never apologized for the horrors he inflicted upon so many people. Evil.

Horrid that he said that. SOB.👺👹🤬
Absolute clown and pos. So many things he said were ridiculous. The audacity he has. Buffoon.
He boasted that he cut his babies umbilical cord and held his children before their mother even did. … I bet he threw this in her face even though she carried them for 9 months and he didn’t 😳🤔😳 Classic narcissist.
Thiiiiiis tho
He has four children by four different women. How much do you want to bet he doesn’t pay child support to any of them. The mothers are probably on welfare.
