- The son of Waukesha parade attack victim and dancing granny Leanna Joy Owen ripped into Darrell Brooks for killing his mother. "The reason none of the witnesses saw her in this courtroom is because she was executed by a child-killing sex offender," Chris Owen said.

The last minute of this video shows how despicable this monster really is.
Yeah really, he clearly still has no remorse.
Rolling his eyes and acting like this poor victim of his rampage was boring him. Darrell Brooks does NOT CARE, and he thinks that he is the victim.
Pretty sure he's getting off on the last bit of attention he'll ever get before he's hopefully buried under the prison.
Really made me sick to my stomach literally when he did that little clap at the day I’ve never had this feeling of sickness ever before he is DISGUSTING
Omg he's clapping in the end.
I really appreciate all the love and support on here. Thank you for sharing your feelings and stories. And just know, my Mom would be honored to see people talking about loving their mothers in memory of her.
Beautiful statement Chris. My prayers for you and your family.
Sending you and your family love and strength. I'm so sorry you and the other families are going through this. Your impact statement was poignant and beautiful. I felt every emotion. You showed incredible restraint when looking into that monster's eyes. I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mother sounded like a wonderful, amazing, loving person💜
Sending you and your family strength from the UK
Salute to you my fellow Vet and my thoughts and prayers going out to you and your family this Thanksgiving and upcoming Christmas. And thank you for your service and for the strong speech that you gave. Bless you my brother
Sending you love and support from Ireland 🇮🇪 I cried listening to you talk about your wonderful mam, she sounded like a beautiful soul. Go dtuga sí suaimhneas síoraí 💕
When Chris said " I am the plaintiff" I literally shouted with joy that someone finally was able to tell him that.
Exactly 💯
AMEN!
Yes indeed
Y E S !!
God bless these poor people!
Can’t believe he rolled his eyes, disheartening
Absolutely sickening!! What he did is unimaginable praying for all their families!!!
Glad the mamzer is rotting in jail now.
What do you expect? A well thought out written apology from the heart?
But he repented and made peace with God, shows, doesn't it?
You can't? How else would a diagnosed sociopath react?
The fact he can sit there, still rolling his eyes and treating the victims this way shows that he truly is a heartless monster. I'm so glad that they got to speak to him and finally tell him to his face exactly what they've been through this past year. And I hope it can help them to slowly heal from their loss.
Except he’s giving himself away. He’s proving that he’s hearing every single word & it’s getting to him. Brooks is a child trying to pretend he doesn’t care. He might not care about the people he hit, because they had no meaning to him. But these people are hitting at his ego. Calling him a monster, evil, nothing, soulless etc. And to a malignant narcissist like him there is no way to hurt him more than to attack him personally & make him feel belittled.
This monster did a silent hand clapping after the guy spoke. 👹
@@allisonjames2923 this is perfection
@@allisonjames2923 My thought exactly. No one but an cyborg could be completely unaffected by their words. If it’s not already eating away at him inside, I have a feeling it’ll hit him like a Mack truck a year or two from now.
Maybe he’ll be alone in the quiet and 24/7 fluorescent lights of solitary confinement; maybe it’ll happen as a “life review” in his final moments while being choked out by some violent criminal who has infinitely more empathy than him. Maybe we’ll all get lucky and itll be both lol: eat away at him for years until one especially unhappy finale 🤷🏻
Maybe, just maybe Brooks deserves a "victim impact statement" in the form of impacts from a sledgehammer in that last guy's hands after he's tied to a chair.
You did your mother proud, Marine. Semper Fi. Our hearts are with you, your family and all the families.
Semper Fi. That pos deserves to be run over and deserves a dirt nap.
so true he did do her proud and your comment made me cry again
Absolutely. 🙏🏼♥️🕊🌸
They need to bring back trial by combat. Make Brooks the bull in the ring.
Ladies and gentleman: Keep whatever you remove. Tear it apart one piece at a time. Have fun. Be sure to laugh at him as he screams and pleas.
SEMPER Fi!!!!!!!!
The fact that it was “she made the best egg nog I ever had” that made him almost break into crying… it’s those moments and personal memories that get you. I’m so sorry for your loss and it’s so horrendous that people with zero empathy or love in their heart exist.
It made me think of how my grandpa made the best sweet potato pie and things will never be the same now that he’s gone. That statement hurt beyond words to me.
You are so very right. When you think you are doing okay, and grieving.. the small, basic things are what hurt the most.
My mom died 3 years ago. She was only 48, suddenly diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and died 7 months later. I will be in the grocery store and see something she would love, I actually grabbed my phone to call her and ask for a recipe one time.. I was so unprepared to lose my mom and still am in denial.
I can hate cancer, everyone hates cancer.
But to see THIS monster, knowing he is what ruined your life.. to see the joke he made of this case and the f*king audacity he has to roll his eyes and clap his hands, I can not fathom the HATE these families must feel. His pain and anger was flowing through his veins. Between this case and Parkland shooter, the injustice these *innocent* people are experiencing breaks my heart and that's only viewing through my phone screen. I would want to attack him. The restraint this man had. 👏🏻
Poetic considering she was murdered by a regular nog
@@universome511 😳
Exactly. It’s the memories we have. My Poppy passed March 2021 and today in the car “Frosty the Snowman” came on the radio. My 9 year old has been complaining about Christmas music but she laughed and said “Poppy used to sneak me in his room after bedtime to watch Frosty the Snowman and one time we took me to get a snow cone and we left a note in case you came to check on me and I was missing. He wrote “ Took my princess to get a snow cone after watching Frosty. Deal with it. Love, Poppy” LOL he didn’t care what the parents said, mine when I was a kid or me as a parent with my daughter. He spoiled his grandchildren and great grand daughter. I can’t imagine losing him the way these families lost their family members. My heart aches for the children that won’t get memories with their grandparents and the parents and grandparents that won’t get memories with their little boy. All the victims. It’s awful.
Wow,this is the first time I've seen brooks respond to victims' family members.. rolling his eyes, clapping , mocking a man in so much pain..he truly is a soul beyond redemption. It's the only way civilization is safe. .chains and a dark, dank cell for this ignorant horror of a man.
Darrell Brooks has no conscience, he has no remorse, he has no empathy, he has no regrets, he has absolutely no insight into other people's feelings. He is a monster.
Darrell Whatever you call it no longer exists.. He has been deleted from society, rejected from God and he feels nothing because they're is no heart no soul no brain, it's just skin and bones,, Empty, factory reset . To the family members, it's time for you all to grieve and remember your loved ones.. That thing is gone .. The buzzards will feast..v
Other inmates will have insight in his butthole pretty soon.
Exactly!! Evil is what he is!
Ego.. Overseer
.
I think he does for other people: If it was someone he loved that was killed then he would change his tune. maybe it is possible he does feel some remorse for others, but he won't allow himself to show it, he has to do the opposite and pretend he does not care to protect his ego. he is sick in his head, kind of in another world.
he made sure to thank the judge for doing things quickly and efficiently before his statement. my heart goes out to this man :(
Your heart goes to which man?
She meant Chris Owens, the victim speaking.
@@maureensamlerAka4Kelly are you kidding me??????
@@maureensamlerAka4Kelly bruh

He tells his story powerfully, creatively, and with such vulnerability. My heart truly aches for these families.
Kyra, I know right, beautiful lady.
Creatively?
In writing that means fiction?
@@frankpaya690 It's understood what they were trying to convey. He wrote it in a way that expressed real emotion.
Thank you.
@@frankpaya690 Ooh, way to find something not 100% grammatically correct. Proud of yourself? Here's a nice Gold Star for your report card (pat on head); run along now, Sweetie.
“I’m the plaintiff. I’m here on behalf of another plaintiff, my mother”
Beautiful
Him rolling his eyes is so heinous and just so evil. This is heartbreaking! I pray for all of the victims and their families and loved ones!
THERE REALLY ARE BAD PEOPLE OUT THERE. WOW THIS GUY HAS NO SOUL.
Am I the only one who hopes he DOESN'T end up in supermax? He doesn't deserve a 23 hour lockdown. He deserves to get passed around the block like a deck of cards
You know...he doesn't need them anymore now that he's to be locked away for nearly a thousand years. I say he's rolled them enough. Let's pluck them out and see what he rolls next.
He will rot in jail like he is nothing. Good riddance. If he even lasts that long might be hearing of his murder in the news by his cell mates.
He's gonna what's coming to him in jail.
The anger I feel as a stranger and someone who isn’t involved in this at all just looking at how he behaves I can’t imagine how these families feel
Yep, he's lucky it wasn't my fam. He'd had a bullet in him and then I woulda gladly served my time afterwards
A real POS
I'm just floored I couldn't have done it. I would have hurt him bad right there in that courtroom. He had no remorse
How it didn't get violent in there I dont know. This guy is a monster
@@saiudaamanihayes3893 I feel the same. I'd gone over the rails at him! I have bail money and a good lawyer...
“It offends me that your sitting here breathing while she is not” 👀
@Johnny Bgood FR
Not the rats chewin on his fingas
He will die from a broomstick….
“The punch line hit me like a red suv, Mr. Brooks” 😫
That hit real hard,may God bless and heal all the victims and family and friends. Lord God I know you are a forgiving God so you deal with Mr. Brooks how u will. The last man who spoke,is hurting where I can feel some of his pain. Let these families have some closure behind this horrific act by this man who acts like he did nothing wrong
"EVIL CAN BE A TANGIBLE, LIVING THING!" Amen, Chris! You said what thousands of us are feeling about this monster. And you put it all together so well! As I wanted to crawl through my screen and slap the smirk and rolling eyes right off of his face, you did it for me with your words. I think you muddied up his "clear conscience" a bit! My heart goes out to you, your mom, your family and to all of the victims this monster affected by being on this earth! God Bless you all!!
God allowed it to happened.
I wish I could thank him for having the courage to admit his feeling that he wasn’t always the best son. Instantly made me want to be a better daughter.
His words were perfection
that is messed up and be blessed
@@Physictsdrumtoo Sad thing is, you're not wrong. Because the Christian God is a mass murdering monster. A shame the Law Enforcement is unaware of this...
His anger and pain is so visible. He is struggling to contain it reading his statement. What a strong son❤️
blame the people who do not VOTE for the DEATH PENALTY...
❤
@@fitecommander5565 i totally respect your thoughts there.
but i also think that a quick painless death is too good for him. and also, it's my understanding, that death penalty cases are an enormous amount of legal expense for the government.
again, Fite Commander, totally respect your thoughts
this is just too difficult for me to speak about right now.
have a good evening.
Gosh, did I cry! I aspire to one day be like Lee Owen's
@@fitecommander5565 Oh, I think that will changing there, sooner than later.
God help these people.
I'm glad the justice system allows this, the son needed this.
Agree!!
Agreed! 💯
Very much needed !!!! 💯💯💯💯👏🏽👏🏽
The justice system is flawed. Derrick Brooks should not be kept alive.
Absolutely..
This brought me to tears. The thought of my parents being ripped away like this destroys me
I'm on tissue #4
Same.
I can't believe this wretched creature rolled his eyes and mocked his victims, yet during his sentencing, he was _bawling_ and begging for leniency. Hopefully he gets prison justice and he'll be gone from this world. And if he does, nothing of value will be lost.
We can only hope
RSO are loved and protected by our government.
He won't do a life sentence.
In America if a person like darrell brooks is being sentenced to death
Let the family member Inject the first needle
@@CuntNuggets rso?
Prison justice? That would be so glorious and satisfying 🤩
My heart aches for these people. Weeks away from the one year anniversary… I pray for their peace and wellbeing. Darrell Brooks is an inhumane coward.
Your God is more inhumane for not stopping it when he could
If only this state Wisconsin allowed the death penalty. The fact that he killed 6 people and drove in a zig zag pattern and kept driving. Guy like that shouldn’t be alive because he’s a waste of tax dollars and space.
@@Rg-cf1ix you should seriously read The Bible so you can get a better understanding for what and why things are going the way they are going . Until then I will pray for you.
@@Rg-cf1ix God had nothing to do with it that's Satans delusions wants you to believe it's God's fault for everything he causes and if you really know God them you would know that, I'll keep you in my prayers 🙏
They've only reached 6% of their January goal to build a memorial for the victims in Waukesha. Truly sad seems no one cares but criminals like George Floyd had his casket dragged across the country to all these events and statues of him up in Minnesota.
I can't believe how completely devoid of human empathy he has to be to do that little clap at the end
Oh you didn't know? Monsters walk amongst us daily.
@@jimnightshade1100 Yep. In the form of sociopaths, psychopaths, etc. They are real, and Darrell Brooks should be an example to all of the evil that lurks everywhere...
@thicc kitty Hes going to be in protective custody for his entire life. The misconception of prison justice is unfortunately often a thing of a fiction. They are not going to allow him around other prisoners. The same way they keep all child abusers in the same protected wing.
Don’t worry they’ll be clapping his cheeks in prison pretty soon
I find it interesting that the guy mentioned Brooks being out of prison. I think that’s why Brooks did what he did in the first place. He knew he would be going back to prison soon so he decided to take as many people down with him as possible.The trial was just one last show for him.
I wouldn't be able to contain myself like these families have. I wish them the best of luck moving forward.
Especially when the murderer did a silent clap at the end.
Watching so many murder trials these days I can’t help but feel no justice is being served.
It’s like watching a horrible tv series where the criminals are the main characters getting their own show.
Bring back the death sentence.
I’d like to see how many of these lunatics would be silently clapping knowing they’re about to get fried.
@@Its_just_rand Exactly. Couldn't agree with you anymore.
Ok tough guy
@@jayw3688 DB sympathizer ^🤡
@@jayw3688 Far from tough
The pain and anger in your voice are palpable. Your mother would have been super proud of you. From her, you got the strength and solid character to endure this horror. We send our love.💕
WOW... My mom was my best friend. I lost her to a stroke, and I've been struggling without her ever since she died. I couldn't imagine losing my mom the way this man did. How can any human being sit there, roll their eyes, applaud sarcastically and dismiss these tortured people for what he did. Pure evil. "You rot. You rot slow."
Sorry for your loss
I'm sorry about your mom. This guy is just wasting everyone's time and this ends with him in prison forever. It sucks there is so much evil and sadness in the world but we don't need to be part of it. We deserve to be happy. I'm not even watching this video because the content will be too upsetting but I do hope you, and these victims of his, find peace. I know it's easy to hate but it's not worth it and I think that once this fiasco he is putting them all thru is concluded, they can heal.
Sorry for your loss, friend. How long ago did she pass? Any thoughts or advice you can share about how you have managed to cope? Bless you.
I'm in the middle of a 9 hour video where the victims and families are giving their speeches and i can't count how many times he rolled his eyes... At one point he interrupted to ask the age of one of the children for his notes. This dude is something different. Also I'm sorry for your loss
My dad used to always say no one will love you like your mother. Now this man doesn't have that angel 👼 that brought him. That one person who is there to remind us we are loved...when you take that away from someone just know GOD SEES EVERYTHING AND NO ONE LEAVES THIS EARTH WITHOUT PAYING WHAT THEY OWE FIRST...YOU WATCH PRISON IS NOT THE WORST PUNISHMENT... EVENTUALLY GOD HAS HIS WAYS . GOD SAID THAT REVENGE IS MINE.
The fact that I can cry without knowing these people or the kind of pain they suffer. And he actually committed the gruesome crimes can sit in that courtroom with a dry face. Monster is too good of a name for him.
That’s because we were raised correctly and with kindness in our hearts. I’m with you. Hug your loved ones. ✌🏼
💯 a demonic monster who used the Holy Bible as a prop. That is despicable big time.
He and people like him are aliens. Beings from another world who have no human understand. No human feeling. They should be treated as such. Put 'em on a rocket and send 'em into space. Let them find their way home and off our world.
I wonder if he sits there and questions why he’s not affected by these words like he should be? Or if he doesn’t care or isn’t smart enough to even have that thought
Homie is a piece of 💩and that’s insulting to 💩! I had a cat in my neighborhood growing up that killed my neighbors kids and he smiled during the trial and this cat is 10x worse than that
Chris Owen was so well put together and had such a powerful statement. What a strong man. Everything he said was true and needed to be heard
1000% Agreed.
Seeing Brooks role his eyes during these impact statements is so unbelievably enraging
That second guys statement was so powerful and imbued with every bit of contempt Brooks deserves.
He was far more eloquent and composed than I could have been. This was an absolutely wonderful , heartfelt , and beautiful yet excruciating speech. It broke my heart and made me cry my eyes out. Wherever she is I'm sure his mom is really proud of him. I'm so sorry that he lost his mom.
Well said. Omg I feel the same. This showed up in my algorithm and I was in tears out of the sheer passion and emotion of these eloquent men who loved their mothers. I feel I got a glimpse into the beautiful woman Lee was. I feel like I would be so lucky to have had known her. I'm so proud of him too. 😭
powerful statements!
Yes! He was just stellar! The contrast of these two men was interesting to see on display at the same time. There was something peaceful and calm about it actually. Justice is a winner for everyone. I’m so glad it was done here, and I pray all the victims work through the pain and heal.🌷❤️❤️❤️ Chris’ testimony here proves what kind of a woman his mother was!🪽
@@DeeliteeAmen
The only tears I saw from Darrell were tears for himself. He has no heart. My gosh! To be rolling his eyes while the victim spoke is outrageous!
I completely agree. What a disgusting monster this demon is. I am glad this thing will be locked away for the rest of his life and being told what to do as well. May God bless the victims and their families.
I’m beyond livid at the eye rolling displayed while these victims share their trauma and grief.
Watching him roll his eyes as a man tearfully expresses his hurt in losing his mother so tragically is enraging. I hope he lives to be 105 and that every single night he’s haunted with never ending nightmares filled with the faces and images of the lives he stole! I hope his every waking moment the cries and screams of those innocent people play loudly in his mind.
I don't think that will ever happen. You could just see throughout the trial; he showed no remorse. We can just hope he wakes up angry till 105 years old and still rotting in jail.
iwould of tried to get him
Naw, you don't want him to live long. Everyone in Waukesha deserves the opportunity to pee on his grave.
He won’t. He’s incapable of empathy.
He won't be haunted by the victims, that would require empathy; something a psychopath lacks. The way his brain is wired means he is literally incapable of caring. All we can hope for is that his time in prison sucks and makes him bored/angry/miserable, because that's as good as it's gonna get.
These court victims might as well be talking to a wall, it sucks but it's reality. Brooks has never, and will never care about the victims.
The pain they feel is unbearable. Best impact statement ever. He did his mom so proud.
Mr. Owen, thank you so so much for saying to the POS what all of us were screaming at our screens and monitors! You have my most sincere condolences on losing your mother. To lose a mom is bad enough and I cannot fathom the pain you must feel about losing her in such an awful way. You and yours are in my prayers.
The dancing grannies deserved so much more. All they did was try to bring joy and light to us all. My whole heart breaks for them and their families.
They'll be dancing 💃 hard this year!!!! In memory of the fallen and to show they aren't shaken.
They were called the dancing grannies 😭 omg I’m officially bawling
@@Jestin612 your comment could be took wrong you know.
@@Mangraper didn't mean it the way you're thinking it. I'm a saint
@@Jestin612 I’m still unsure of your motive ?
He's the type of person that's lived his life by having to control absolutely every situation, and has to get his own way on everything. I'm so glad he now has to live out the rest of his life being told when, what and how, to do things. Every single aspect of his life is going to be controlled, and must abide by authoritative rules. It's going to be extremely hard for a person like him to live that way. It'll drive him crazy the rest of his life.
The death penalty is what he should be looking at.
Eh, just 86 him and throw him in the trash. Cheaper, easier, faster.
He's going to have to be in protective custody 23 and 1.
@@Jestin612 that’s not how protective custody works everywhere. Some places protective custody is an entire unit with other protective custody guys, so they just continue jail operations as normal. PC doesn’t equal solitary confinement.
But yea, I think life in prison will be worse than death for him because he’ll be told when to wake up, make his bed, when to eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, line up for roll call, go to bed, work in the jail, etc etc
Spoken like a true parent! That's exactly true. His mom and grandma were still trying to give him his way! My mom would have said Child what the devil got into you? My grandma, can't even call it! But, she wouldn't have approved of that!
His wretched behaviour is clearly an attempt to disassociate. He’s so deep in denial and the closer his sentencing gets the more it’ll happen. He knows he’s in trouble
Exactly. I think he doesn’t comprehend the concept of accountability. How could he?
No job
Lives with mom
No car/no license
Multi-felon
Deadbeat dad
Sex offender
Woman-beater
Etc etc.
Through his entire 40 years he has shown no true, tangible responsibilities for anything. Instead he has ducked and dodged his was from taking any accountability until he finds himself at this age, straight loser, and the inability to think of anyone but himself.
The only GOOD news is that it’s obvious deep down he is a coward. This was evident when he was arrested. It was evident during his questioning, and he will struggle in prison for being such a “Ho” as the streets would consider him. I doubt he will even make general population in prison (which is even better) as it means he will be in lock down most of the time. I imagine they will send him to Dodge Correctional facility as they have a lot of “high-profile” inmates there. That place is supposed to be pretty bad for level 3+ inmates, which he will definitely be categorized based on his behavior.
This is the most moving clip of the entire trial. I'm glad Chris got a chance to speak his mind and I'm glad he didn't hold back.
“I wasn’t always a good son. I was selfish and mean at times. Now I can never tell her I’m sorry. I can never tell her how much I need her in my life.” said like a real good son to me! My heart breaks for him. God ease his pain and bless him in Jesus name we pray amen
Amen, my heart aches for him.
Do you have kids yet one thing I learned as a parent it's our kids job to hate us and we still love them just how it is wherever mom is just know she loved you and I'm 100 percent positive that she didn't dwell on the bad times that's just not how parents think of there kids I hope you find comfort in some of my words just remember the good times don't dwell on the bad I'm sure she didn't
Lol when he bangs his chest in return.
Lol it was funny how he pounded on his chest⚪️🗑💩🤡
@@charlesanastasia7574 Those might just be the truest words I have read in a while. My dad and I are very close now, but when I was a kid, well, lets just say I was a real handful. Wasn't until I was in my mid 20s I really started to appreciate all he did for me as a kid.
Omg his little clap at the end, what a tool
Tool of satan
I don’t know that I’ve ever cried so hard at a victims impact statement. I stand with you men and all the victims and families. Your words were powerful. Your moms would be so proud. I hope you can move from the hate we all feel for this man and spread love in tribute of your beautiful moms. I don’t know that I’ve ever witnessed this level of evil in my life and hope I never do again. To the baby boy who lost his life … I can’t even breath to imagine his parents pain. I hope I ease it a bit when I say, the whole world stands beside you always . Love and light

All I can do is pray that our lord GOD eases your pain which so many feel for you..even strangers like me..
If you believe in goodness and someday a balance and a heaven and life beyond this..hold tight ..and remember there are countless pr a years to you and all who lost their loved ones..and these prayers qnd blessings never fade.. fade..they live in the heart of God. Ps forget Brooks..and be free of hate
Amen
Raqlew Thank you. You wrote everything I was feeling.
Your comment made me pause the vid before I even started it. I just hope whatever his statement was that it gave him some form of closure or peace. The judge is obviously going to put him away forever and ever and there was no need to impact statements on a creep like this unless the statement was for the healing of the victims. Idk why he is wasting everyone's time the jury has seen more than enough already and he will be under the jail soon enough.
What a coward! He had to turn around and make sure no one was watching him so he could silently clap , to show how meaningless this victim’s statement’s were to him!
Chris Owen- you put me in 😭 tears. Tears for the losses. Tears for your strength. AND tears for the verbal slaps you gave in honesty, against his disgusting words/actions, and strength you have to the victims/families. THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORDS AND STRENGTH 💗
I'm right there with you. This is gut wrenching 😭
Your words echo how I feel about his words also !!!! What a fine fine son Ms Owens raised. I’m sure she heard him from heaven !!! ❤️🙏
😢❤️❤️❤️
He really had the audacity to roll his eyes I can’t
Then the weirdo clapped at the end, this man is a demon in human form
First the eye rolls, then the golf clap at the end. Darrel is openly mocking every victim.
This man should never have been out of jail to commit this crime. His record speaks for itself
Chris Owen, your statement was so moving and amazingly written. you’re an amazing son, your mom would be so proud of you!
I lost my mother when I was 25 years old, it took me years to finally come to terms of losing someone so close when it wasn't their time. For this man to have had significantly longer with his mother, and it still not be her time, must be the worst pain that man has ever felt. God bless them, this must be unbearable to do.
So how do we know when it’s time? If when the time comes to early, but when is it the right time to die?? When it’s time, unfortunately it’s time🤷🏾 I pray u continue to heal frm your loss🙏🏾
I lost mine 5 years ago. She was only 53. I still haven't been able to get over it either. It's a pain I can't shake! Died from cancer that she was given a 90% chance of beating. It ate her up in a few months. So I also feel this man's pain of losing someone so close and yours as well. Prayers to u and all the victims that lost loved ones. Especially around this holiday season.
My mother was 39, seeing this man alive after what he did, makes the world feel as unfair as the day I lost her.

Powerful!! Him sitting up there “praying” and playing remorseful when he speaks.
This whole trial was about him being the victim. SMDH! I’m a year late, this is the most intriguing case I’ve ever watched. It got to the place that I forgot WHY he was on trial for (6) counts of MURDER! Spent so much time playing attorney, he harped on things not being “fair”. The level of sick and disturbed is unmeasurable!
Owen is quite the orator. Very powerful, authentic, real guy.
Absolutely..
These two brothers said it better than anyone else ever could.. you really feel their emotion.. my heart breaks for them.
You can tell this is one of very few times this spoiled grown 12 year old has been told his truths. His mother should be ashamed and I’m glad one of the victims called her out too
Absolutely..

His mother should have used the handy coat hanger before he even came out.
There's no appeal on earth to get Brooks released.
Even people with mental illness can show remorse if during a bipolar episode they mowed down and killed innocent people. The fact that Darrell Brooks can roll his eyes, laugh, and mock the victims families is proof he knew exactly what he was and is doing, because anyone with half a heart would feel deep remorse and have the respect to show the victims families and the court that they are truly regretful and sorry. His actions speak loud and clear as to what kind of human being he really is. Prayers for peace and healing for all the families who lost their love ones.
He’s a psychopath.
It is very difficult to acknowledge that there really are people like him in the world. God knows I’m not perfect and have done some things I wish I never did when I was younger, but just can’t understand this mans sheer hatred for everything. What drives a man to that ice cold station in life? What possible value foes he see standing on those false values?
I hate this mfr
Watching Brooks's behaviour is really hard. He only really gets upset when he thinks he is being wronged, or mischaracterised. He hasn't got a clue about the misery he has caused.
I don’t think he’s smart enough to know what he’s doing in any context.. He’s not a thinker
I didn't fully grasp how heartless Brooks was until seeing him react to this man. I don't understand how you couldn't be moved by this man. The ending "I hope you rot and I hope you rot slow" sent chills up my spine.
how did it take you this long to realize that thing has no soul?
@@virtualmartini Maybe they haven't watched as much of the trial as you or I.
He's a psychopath aka antisocial personality disorder
Yes He wasn't even trying to hide HOW UNMOVED/ bored, this DEFENDANT was about what he did. On display was his ( sick ) complete LACK OF REMORSE at what he did. Words don't do justice to what a heartless being he is. Mocking & rolling his eyes to these statements after what he did. His sentence to what the STATE OF WI could sentence him to is JUSTIFIED. A lot of the way you described your mother, is common of the characteristics that my mother had too/ finding the GOOD in people. I'm so sorry for your loss. YOU made a great statement here.
In a way Chris was asking for it since he wanted to prove evil exists
This man said what the world wants to say to this monster. To all the peoples families this man murdered I’m so sorry for your losses. I hope you all can find peace. Sending love from Pittsburgh.
The Judge that released him on bail. Nobody ever talks about that. So sad.
One of the men did take him to task
@@PanicattheDiscourse Let me be clear. Not at all blaming these survivors. That man - I saw that! Just saying how Judges are not held accountable for their decisions. Going to look at the particulars now and how/why he was released to begin with. So sad. Thanks for your comment.
I hope he doesn't know a day where he doesn't remember he helped kill people during a Christmas parade.
@@Mindyobiz-fy7ef agreed, just wanted to highlight the man who spoke truth to power.
I’m angrier now. His assessment wasn’t reviewed before bail decision AND of course, the Court transcripts that would explain why/how he was released do not exist. There needs to be an investigation and full accountability here. Lives taken didn’t have to happen.
I'm not even a minute in, and on the other side of this screen, I am howling for how intense this man's speech is. I love it.
Me too!! These testimonies are definitely impactful
Unbelievable that he can roll his eyes in response to that man's heartfelt statement
You can see him rolling his eye's at someone else's pain @8:08
Absolutely disgusting.
Dats how dey be
Average basketball american
@@SairanBurghausenracist scum
The pain in these men's voices is heartbreaking. You can tell it's taken everything In them to not jump over the benches to get to him. I can't even imagine the amount of strength this must take. God bless & give them peace🙏🏼
I was low key hoping the dad at the end would have pulled a Gary Plauche right there in the courtroom. No jury would have convicted him.
He was the one who hollered at DB. My heart breaks for him
Chris if you ever read this, I want to thank you for your passionate honest and loving statement. I have an 11 yr old son and we certainly have our petty like quarrels. To hear you talk about your mother, you reminded me to be the best mother that I can possibly be so my son can grow up as fine a gentleman as you clearly are. My heart goes out to you and I hope you find peace and comfort in your grieving process 🙏🏻
And, Chris if you ever read this.. your mom knows you are sorry. You never even had to say the words, she knew. She loved and still loves you regardless of any disagreements.
I know your mom is honored and proud of the statement you made, the restraint you had. And maybe one day, you will make egg nog just perfect, the way she made it for you.
I'm so, so sorry for your loss. It may not mean much but from NJ, your words made me cry.
Listening to Chris speak about his mother made me cry. He loves his mother and family so much and it shows. He is an inspiration. I'm also glad he called DB out for his eyerolling. He called out his mother's murderer.
The restraint these families have is incredible. I seriously think I’d be charged with attempted murder trying to get to him
His eye rolls made my blood boil!! I've never wanted to punch TF out of someone so bad! I'm angry for these victims! 😤 I hope they find peace and I hope they know how brave they are for being able to content themselves so well, because God knows I could never!
Agree so much to this!!
Hes really wicked. Maddening
When the headlines one day report he got taken out, I think we'll all feel a little relieved, because people who hurt children, don't tend to live very long behind prison doors.
He is a monster that I too wish I could pull apart. I wish he would have met Jeffrey Dahmer.
I can only hope that the victims have some friends in the prison where Brooks will be housed, so he never has a single day of peace.
Props to these people for being able to stand strong against this guy. A truly difficult task. RIP to those victims.
The intensity of Chris Owen’s emotions is palpable. What happened and the subsequent pain endured by the victims and their loved ones is horrific and absolutely unimaginable. I’m glad this part of the ordeal is over for them. There will never be truly adequate justice or a sentence harsh enough to compensate for the destruction caused.....and there will never be enough healing to take away the pain....but at least now they don’t have to sit in court every day witnessing his smug attitude, his lack of remorse and compassion and the disrespect it appears he demonstrated throughout the trial.
Well said. I can’t imagine the level of pain these victims have endured. I can’t help tearing up. So sad.
Thank you for your kind words. The other victims in the courtroom are what is helping me move on.
I don't think I've ever seen a more cruel or evil person..I cried when I saw him mocking that victim's son. But when it comes to his feelings..it's a totally different thing
It hurts my heart for the families to see that he literally doesn’t care at all, no remorse, no guilty conscious. He’s so unbothered, however I’m happy that they keep it extremely cordial and didn’t allow for a chance at a retrial, it was agonizing to see him defend himself. This man has the IQ of a piece of coal because even a rock has more substance than him.
Except he’s giving himself away. He’s proving that he’s hearing every single word & it’s getting to him. Brooks is a child trying to pretend he doesn’t care. He might not care about the people he hit, because they had no meaning to him. But these people are hitting at his ego. Calling him a monster, evil, nothing, soulless etc. And to a malignant narcissist there is no way to hurt them more than to attack them personally, belittle them. These words will affect him more in some ways than the prison sentence will.
that roast at the end though! He deserves it!
@@allisonjames2923 interesting perspective and also true in a way!...
Psychopaths are foreign to us, they don’t make sense and they don’t care. All we can do is hand them the correct sentence, which doesn’t always happen unfortunately.
Conscience
This was the most powerful testimony I’ve seen in a long time. He didn’t hold back or get timid.
I am so very sorry for all of you who lost someone from this monster. I truly am. What a terrible thing to go through.
That was hard to get through. Listening to that almost put me in tears. Prayers for all the victims and their families.
The way brooks did a little applaud at the end bloody disgraceful and now he's appealing saying he shouldn't have defended himself and he is having a lawyer. Theirs no denying what he did and how many lives he took and its been said that an appeal could go on for over a year . What's the point and the cost of if all while some ex veterans are homeless in the streets. Jmo
@@sula1529Sometimes in appeals, judges can admit that an error happened, but the second part is would the jury have decided differently had the error not happened. This guy’s on camera committing the crimes, dumping the car, trying to flee etc. I don’t think the 74 counts will be overturned on appeal.
I love it man, locked up so deep the rats chew your fingers. I am sooooo sorry for the loss of your mom, she sounds like a wonderful woman, and she raised you well sir. Thank you for your testimony.
This guy nailed it...a force to be reckoned with!
That was one amazing speech. Heartbreaking to hear but I feel his pain in his voice. They are all so brave to stand up and say what they feel to this evil human being.
My condolences to all the families that lost their loved ones. 💐 This is heartbreaking.
❤
It is disgusting how this monster treated the victims. He couldn't even act like a human. I feel for these victims and families.
Wow I couldn’t imagine losing my mom in the way that this man did. Prayers to all of the victims 🙏🏾📿🕊️
Not an ounce of remorse on his face. Shameful
I can literally feel this man's pain, and am in tears for him, I'm praying for you sir 🙏
I could feel that man’s pain in my heart and deep down in the pit of my stomach. Please God help these families heal from all this pain they feel. Anyone who hears these families speak of their loved ones there’s no denying they are very missed and loved. My condolences to all the families that were affected by this one monsters’ actions.
I’m so heart broken for this guy and his family! You can see his love for his momma… may you RIP Lee Owen 😢
Hugs to te family!
Nothing will change as they are all too afraid to mention the elephant in the room. To mention he did this because he despised Wh1tes🤷🏼♀️Even the prosecution never mentioned it. This is one of many landed as “random”, and many more to come.
Perfectly said Mr. Owen.
Man this man's statement was amazing so powerful and strong. My prayers and thoughts are forever with the victims and their families.
He is just awful no remorse whatsoever and keep rolling back his eyes my heart breaks for the victims and the families, I hope he gets what he deserves 😠
And he applauds each victim at the end !! Sad …
@@alenkoka7711 Omg I noticed that smh he’s a poor excuse of a human being !!
@@alenkoka7711 They should flay his hands for that.
Justice be served
He is one of the most disgusting animals on the planet. Not even worth being called an animal. Slug?
Chris Owen- I am from Milwaukee, WI. My condolences to you & your entire family. I am so sorry for your loss. Your speech is spot on & really touched/impacted me. Stay strong Brother. I hope & pray that you & your family will heal. Take care Brother.
Prayer didn't prevent the victims to be run over!
Every comment you have nothing but negativity towards our Father God, which is uncalled for!!! Seems to me you are a non believer which is fine, your life, your consequences you will hv to face! But how dare you comment under this man post on how he express his self during his mother trail? Disrespectful to God 1st all and disrespectful to the victim and her family!! Karma is what you are facing and I hope the family finds love and healing energy ❤
@@travelingman5146 this comment is for you
Rest In Peace... This is so sad :/, He's so strong for this, God Bless him 🙏
Love it. Go OFF, sir. 👏🏼🙌🏻👏🏼🙌🏻👏🏼
I can't stop crying for these families and all they have and will go through. My prayers are for the families
He is ice cold. Its frightening that people like him walk among us
No need to pray, God sent that angel to do his will. And he wouldn't ever burden those families with more than they could handle
I know. i can feel it deep inside. i''m an Iraq veteran and have been privy to some terrible experiences but this tops all of those. I'd love to say some choice words but karma will come when the spotlight is off of him & the darkness & isolation takes over.
God bless these people who came to the podium and stated their feelings their aches and their pains They deserve medals for speaking so hard it must have been to them.
Chris, I always tell my daughters I want to see Machu Pichu before I die. They've heard it so many times... if I ever do, I'll remember your mom and give a prayer for her. You spoke for everyone that has lived through this trial. You have our gratitude because all of us wanted to shout angrily at that egotistical monster.
And as a mom, please be sure your mom knew every time how sorry you were because she absolutely knew you loved her. We know, she definitely knew how much you loved her. May you and your family have the certainty she is in a beautiful better place.
“Even god hates you” --- I really felt that. I’ve never seen a guy with so much hate. I hope he gets help to deal with his pain.
He’s allowed to hate him.
Sometimes God makes a mistake, DB is an example of that, he should have been a dung beetle not a human
@@bigbronzespider We all hate him
I saw pain and grief
We cannot judge that man. Leave him be. He will find his way on day. But. Let him have this day💯
My prayers are with this victim, and all the victims. Can’t stop crying.
You can see and feel the anger and heart break of these men. God my heart breaks so much.
I think the “defendant” is enjoying the grief and suffering of his victims’ families and friends as they shared their victim impact statements. He exhibits no remorse, no compassion, no guilt about these horrendous crimes he committed. He’s only concerned about his own sorry self.
Right just seems like a game to him like he's a character on some TV drama basically makes a mockery of the courtroom whole time representing himself
Definitely agree
But if it happened to him, the “victim” playing would be top notch 🙄🙄🙄🙄
It baffles me how he can mow down dozens of people with an SUV but wanted everyone to feel sorry for him when he had a paper cut on his finger 🤣
I viewed Brooks as being bored, as though these victim statements were wasting his time.
These victims are so brave and strong. I could not contain my anger if I had to stand there knowing he killed one of my loved ones. I really applaud them and I pray they find peace in their hearts knowing this man will never be free again.
Heartbreaking words Mr Owen. So well said, you’re my hero. Your mother would be proud of who you are today. RIP
Yes, I agree he was very articulate but you can feel his pain. I’m glad he was able to keep some restraint and get it out because he deserves to be heard.❤❤
Wow, that son (Leon Owens) delivered a powerful impact statement. 😢 Thank god I’m not Daryl Brooks but if I were I would be sliding under the table in disgrace of myself!!!
"That Poor Excuse For A Man" Yes, That's Exactly Right !!!!
