a tale of 2 mass murderers

Waukesha County

DARRELL BROOKS SENTENCED TO SIX CONSECUTIVE LIFE SENTENCES FOR WAUKESHA PARADE MASSACRE

Wednesday, Darrell Brooks (41) was sentenced for the massacre at the Waukesha Christmas parade that occurred last year. Brooks was sentenced to six consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole. Each life sentence was for each count of first-degree intentional homicide.

Brooks drove his red SUV through the Christmas parade running over participants. Judge Jennifer R Dorow delivered an hour of remarks when Brooks was escorted from the courtroom. He learned his fate in an adjacent room at that time.

Dorow said, “Some people, unfortunately, choose a path of evil. And I think, Mr. Brooks, you are one of those such persons. As a mom, my heart breaks for your family.”

Brooks also spoke for over two hours about his upbringing, mental health, and his renewed faith. He told the courtroom, “This needs to be said: What happened on Nov. 21 2021 was not, not, not an attack. It was not planned, plotted.”

The trial was a rollercoaster with Brooks’s odd behavior. Brooks represented himself and had very unusual behavior throughout the entire trial.

With Brooks now sentenced, hopefully, the community can continue its process of healing.

UVA Mass Shooting Vanishes from Headlines After Reality Contradicted Race Narrative

The recent mass shooting at the University of Virginia has quickly vanished from corporate media headlines after reality contradicted the racial narrative that quickly arose out of the triple homicide.

Though corporate media outlets like ESPN and The Washington Post were initially interested in the UVA mass shooting, which killed three members of the school’s football team, that quickly waned after it was realized that the shooter wasn’t a bloodthirsty white supremacist or unhinged gay porn YouTube star, but a black former member of the team himself.

Slowly chipping away at the "all mass murderers are white" narrative.
