Mr Brooks knew it was an uphill battle in his defense. I’m surprised he didn’t just plead guilty to save the city money. Did I just typed that? 😱

District Attorney Opper was fantastic during this trial! Thank you to the smart sensible Jury!!

[@chiccavaquita]

Why do you think she had moments when she laughed during her closing testimony? I thought that was odd but was that a nervous thing? Just curious what others think.

[@loisdgilbert8639]

@@chiccavaquita I think I missed that.

[@Bookhart2]

All three prosecutors were great. They each had moments when they landed the punches squarely where they needed to be.

[@Bookhart2]

I don’t think Ms Opper laughed. She has a funny little facial thing that makes her look like she’s about to smile or laugh.

[@loisdgilbert8639]

Justice! What a beautiful community of people and expertly represented by Sue Opper. My heart and thoughts are with the victims and their families 💜

[@rosalynjeffery9510]

Brooks is jealous of the love they showed each other, something that he never gotten because of his insane definition of what love truly mean. To him love means if you do things for me when I tell you too.

[@whiskeyactual.]

Justice finally served. Thank you for covering this so closely CourtTV, I've watched every live and it was a wild ride.

[@johnathanpatrick6118]

Life times six plus another 859 years he faces. Safe to say today's 76 count verdict was the 'game over' moment.

[@realcanadiangirl64]

I'm sorry this criminal was able to cause so much grief and loss in your community. I was so happy to hear the guilty verdicts this morning after watching these past two weeks. Great job team! All my care and support from Canada 🇨🇦

[@honeybunch5765]

This team, including the Judge did a great job. I live on the other side of the world in South Africa and I was so emotionally invested in this case as if I'm from that city. I knew there was no way he could be found not guilty even though it was obvious he tried to throw the case but I was still extremely relieved when I heard the verdict. I've never seen anything like this trial, it was shocking to witness his disrespect to all and the lack of remorse. I don't know how one ever can get over the loss but you do get used to the empty space, not that it makes it less painful. I also think of those still struggling to heal from their physical and emotional wounds. Love to all the victims.

[@rdred8693]

Thank you for caring from so far away. The media did a bad job covering this.

[@Ann-kg1zd]

I watched the trial every day. It was absolutely maddening. The utter disregard for the victims and lack of respect just proved how evil Darrell Brooks is. RIP to the 6 murdered and prayers for all those physically and mentally traumatized for life bc of what this criminal did. I was amazed at how respectful the victims who were exposed to cross examination by Darrell Brooks handled themselves with such dignity bc honestly if he hurt my children, I don't think I could have sat there calmly the way they did. Justice is yours today!

[@texasgina]

Exactly. I could barely even watch this case I could only watch bits and pieces because he literally drove me crazy watching the way he acted. And just total disregard for the victims that he murdered and wounded it’s so weird to see someone so callous so inhumane

[@bigrockauto]

Judge Darow covered all the bases. She crossed the t’s and doted the i’s painful process but she was great!!! Thank you everyone.

[@hartofcrochetbysheryl]

I have so much respect for this prosecution team and the judge. To go against what they did with patience and class and to cover every aspect for an appeal… outstanding 👍🏼👏🏼 The jury did their job in spite of many interruptions and delays by the defense. Waukesha, I am sending lots of love and prayers your way from the West Coast. My heart breaks for the victims and their families and all who were injured both physically and mentally from this tragic event. I pray today was a step in the healing path.

From Mexico 🇲🇽 I feel so happy justice es serve today! This trial was very difficult to watch / follow but I did it because the victims, families and the lawyers deserve this moment/ outcome. I loved the girl / DA team in charge of the computer system - images etc… she was always very focus, profesional and I could saw her commitment and kindness.

Major props to the Judge and prosecution team in this trial and the Judge from the Rittenhouse trial. Wisconsin has a long history of corruption and they helped prove they were not going to help contribute to that corruption in these trials. Mad respect.

[@kdfulton3152]

You might as well have sentenced the murderer to 1 Life Sentence. What’s the difference? They announce it like it’s a huge verdict. Yes, the time given is substantial but he only has one life to give. We need the Death Penalty for these types of abominable offenses.

[@AWC1989]

.....Correct me if I'm wrong, but a life sentence is 25 years. Then you're eligible for parole though not that you will get it. So 6 consecutive life sentences would be 150 years, and then 859 years of confinement on top of that. That is the courts way of saying rot in prison you piece of trash. .....My own take is save taxpayers money, and execute him with the electric chair or firing squad.

[@geoffpoole483]

It's because there were multiple or rather many victims and charges; but at the end of the day Brooksie's coming out of prison in a wooden box.

More people should watch this these are the people truly impacted by this, Brooks rip jailhouse lawyer

[@rosalynjeffery9510]

Brooks was pissed when Sue Opper said to one of the witnesses " because you're a good husband. He's never been called good at anything his entire miserable life. The way he was shaking his head and rolling his eyes when she said that, it was so obvious that he was jealous and angry at her comment. Stay safe out ther everybody. His love had conditions attached to it.There's a lot of darrell brooks walking amongst us.

[@texasgina]

I could only watch bits and pieces of this trial because he annoyed me so bad. I completely lost my patience and I am a mother of six kids and 10 grandkids and never did I ever get annoyed as much as this bastard annoyed me.. I don’t know how these people had the patience to sit in that court room every day listening and dealing with his shenanigans

[@carrow1057]

Where are all the new videos, analysis...Where is it?

[@queeniewhite4439]

Question, how can he file an appeal on grounds of not competent enough/mentally ill to be his own lawyer by his actions, and trying to portray himself as crazy, when in fact all his other court cases he did not act out or act mentally ill in those cases, in the beginning of this trial before he and his mother devised a plan to say he was crazy and mentally ill. he was acting respectable so, I guess what I'm asking is if he wasn't mentally ill during all his other cases and acted respectable from the rap sheet, he has, how they can say he is mentally ill now? when only after it was said he was mentally ill and did everything he and his mom discussed with delaying the case as long as possible.

[@luv2cre84]

Did I misunderstand? Or did I hear it right that his closing argument was struck from the record??? More importantly, so thankful to the prosecution team, the judge, and ultimately the jury for finally bringing this piece of narcissistic garbage to justice. Prayers for continued healing and peace for the victims and their families.🙏🏼💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@carrow1057]

Where are all the new videos???????????????????????????????????

[@valferguson8322]

This prosecution team was EXCELLENT!!! Her request at the end to ALLOW him to give his closing EVEN THO he’ll still bring up the topic was brilliant. It protected a possible appeal. Altho it was appalling having to listen to him talk about HIS PAIN AND SUFFERING, his lying about religion saying God caused this to happen!! Any Christian walking a true path with God knows He does not cause bad things to happen!! Disgusting!! And I’ve said this before, but this judge has the patience of Job!! She handled him so well!! Viewing his total disrespect for the judge, prosecution and victims, I do not see how an appeal could be granted unless some law was drastically broken. But I think the team and the judge diligently tried to cover all that thru the trial. He deserves the death penalty, but this state does not have that. So the taxpayers will be TAKING CARE OF THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE AS LONG AS HE LIVES. AND, he will not be “safe” in any prison in this country. He can thump that Bible all he wants to…..

[@patriciafoster3347]

8:30 was too early to be in court?? That’s sad because “All inmates are awakened at 6 AM for the formal inmate count. Correctional staff count and recount inmates over and over throughout the day. Around 7 AM, the feeding of breakfast begins. All inmate workers report to their jobs at 7:30 AM.) No wonder he’s mad.
