Watch Live: WI v. Darrell Brooks - Waukesha Parade Defendant Trial Day Four

[@elainejohnson6955]

Every time Brooks questions a witness, I swear he is on the Prosecution's side. He keeps digging himself in deeper and showing what an unfeeling cruel monster he really is.

[@magdalenamezydlo6150]

Exactly! There is so many questions that a defense lawyer wouldn't even dare to ask. He's disgusting!

[@curtconn8149]

And I personally loved it. And it got to him when they had no questions for his "witnesses". Even those he called to testify did nothing to help him. Nothing he did helped at all. He should had just pleaded guilty and saved time but he loved all the attention. A true sign of a narcissist.

[@gena4638]

Yeah...His lack of self awareness is astounding. He was sure to say things like that in front of the jury a few times. Like, "I apologize for the long pause, I'm a little emotional right now." It was almost as if he couldn't muster any ACTUAL emotion so all he could do was say the words "I am emotional", which is why it came off as so disingenuous and robotic. The only time I saw him show any actual emotion was when he or someone else was talking about HIM-During his opening and closing statements and while his mother, grandmother and friend were speaking at his sentencing. His reaction to them speaking vs his reaction to the victims and victims families...it spoke volumes. The fact that he will slowly rot away in prison (without his consent) without any control over his daily life brings me a bit of comfort

He has the right to question the witnesses against him under the 6th Amendment. No one likes how he's doing it, but it has to be done.

But saying what a person does physically such as pointing to a group of people is required to go on record, since you can't see that on a document. Still, he's such a narcist, he just felt SOOO awesome. I honestly think that he believed he was winning. He was trying to discredit the witnesses by arguing they weren't actually parties (well duh, they were witnesses) and then trying to insinuate they were just trying to get money by filing claims. It was sickening to watch this man behave the way he did, but he was sealing his own coffin while he did it.

However I genuinely think he dug his own grave when he examined that lovely, dreadfully unhappy girl who was the 'Extreme' dance instructor. His questions were so mean-spirited and abusive yet she suffered them all with perfect, quiet poise and dignity.
