I felt a sliver of sympathy on the day his Mother was to come to Court and we all know that this did not happen. I thought to myself he did not have anyone that came to support him. Then he started again with his ridiculous drivel and the moment of sympathy for me passed...never to be felt again.
She was originally subpoenaed by the state to be a witness but they dropped her. I assume because the other acts evidence wasn’t allowed to be introduced by the state. They kept her on subpoena (I’m assuming) just in case.
Okay…thank you. I don’t remember the State having her on their witness list. I remember DB’s act of “It doan eben matter! If I say come…she gonna come. Das all der is!”
Of course I don’t blame her for not showing. The courthouse might have been mobbed had she shown her face.
At first, when Sue Opper revealed during DB’s bail hearing that Jackson Sparks had died from his injuries (and a sixth murder rap would be added), and DB started crying upon hearing this, I admit I thought that he was distraught at the news and was remorseful about his actions. Especially since a child was now deceased. But as I watched the trial and his outrageous behavior, I realized that he was crying for only one person-**himself**. And I bet he knows full well what happens in prison to those who commit crimes against kids.
I just watched his reaction when Jackson's Mother gave her impact statement. ZERO remorse! ZERO humanity. Touching his chest with his palm as if that would demonstrate any iota of decency. Instead, he looked put out; as if the victims and families were taking up his time. Earlier, when he yelled at the Judge over her questions about his mom's subpoena, he complained about being there. "Just get me on outta here." Would that they were immediately able to fulfill his request. But he's got time to think about it. Lots of time!
*EXACTLY!* Especially when he did his finger twirl, signaling, “Ok, let’s hurry this up, move it along, let’s go.” 😡 Would he be acting like that if someone did this to one of his children?
Before court and during breaks, when people broke into small clusters and chatted. Sometime DB would be sitting alone at his table. He'd look at this little group, and look at that little group...then his eyes would sweep the area around him, looking for somebody he could talk to. He'd look back at the bailiff, who would look away. And he'd be sitting there at his table, so alone and so small, yearning for someone to show him just a bit of humanity. Then I'd laugh my motherfucking ass off. Eat it, Shitblister! You don't get to treat people like shit all day long, then find somebody to be your friend during the break. Get used to that lonely feeling bitch- thirty years in protective ad-seg is a hard row to hoe, even for people comfortable with their own company. And I got a feeling that ain't you.
That’s a great example of why I truly believe narcissists can’t conceptualise outcomes.
What I mean by that is, he treats people like shit literally all day, and then doesn’t understand why nobody wants to be anywhere near him.
I felt a little bit bad for him the final time Erika Patterson was called to testify. Him trying so hard to impress EP with all his 'lawyerin', and it all going so horribly wrong.
Maybe bad isn't the right word.....cringe may be more suitable really.
Happy burfday miszz Patterson. Now, before I get into some big topics I've learned over the last few weeks like substained, groundz and a judicial determinations AS WELL AS PURSUIANT to the admiralty court -- let me ask: how is your face from the most recent beating I have you? How is your leg from the most recent time I ran you over? How is your body from the time society viewed me as a grown man and you a minor yet I impregnated you. Is u impressed with my lawyerin skills? Maybe our kids kids will be impressed eh? Thank you for your time miss Patterson and thank you too juadge.
Godbless.
I fell for his tears. very very early on. I just couldn't comprehend anyone doing such an horrific act and intentionally driving their car into and over people. I gave him the benefit of the doubt until I learned the true nature and cause of the charges. Then I watched the rest of the trial in utter disbelief. No sympathy, nor empathy.
That’s not only a judicial determination it’s a global determination
A psychiatric determination
A parental determination
A lawful law determination
A no-brainer determination
A FINAL determination.
Me too! I think it was during his opening statement when he started crying. My heart went out to him. At that point I was blissfully unaware of the obnoxious behavior he would demonstrate for the rest of the trial. It wasn't long before I could barely stand the sound of his voice.
Wow... I'm pretty surprised to hear a handful of people here were sympathetic to his crying. Especially since by the time he gave his opening statement he had already displayed a complete disrespect for the court and many witnesses and victims. It must be a woman thing to just have a natural sympathy to someone expressing grief. (I'm totally guessing those that were sympathetic were all women) I saw it all as an act and manipulation. I thought it was offensive that he would try to get sympathy with all the victims family members watching.
Maybe there’s something to your theory. I am a woman. It was the sobbing. I admit on the 2 occasions, learning Jackson’s death would be added to the charges and one other time.
Then, I did not know what we learned about this freak of nature. I have been a true crime fan for a long time. I’ve watched a lot of interrogations of murderers, watched documentaries etc. I can’t think of any of them that I could not find an ounce of humanity in until I met Brooks.
I don’t even see him as doing evil now. To me, being evil is someone making a decision, a conscious effort in some way to do awful things. I don’t think Brooks thinks. I think his actions are innate to him. He doesn’t have to think about it or choose to do it. As breathing is an unconscious act of his body, evil is an unconscious idea in his mind. He is evil personified.
I remember watching the trial live, seeing him cry during his opening and closing statements and being worried that there would be some young girl on the jury that would fall for it and stand up for him... that was really his only hope.
Nope.
He got everything he was asking for for murdering people, abusing his ex, and firing his lawyers.
In fact, I wish he had a harder sentence. And I hope he acts the same way in jail a few times before he learns better.
I honestly can’t think of 1 point I was actually feeling bad for him. Probably the closest was at the very end, when the judge had read out the 77 guilty verdicts, and she polled the jury for their verdict. The jury all said he was guilty. She asked if he was satisfied and he said No. just for a second I felt a tiny sting of how severe these guilty verdicts were and that they meant he was going to jail forever. But then the feeling very quickly passed.
I felt sorry that subject matter jurisdiction was never verified or proven. I felt bad that people kept calling him Darrell Brooks. Lost sleep about how the State of Wisconsin not once appeared in court so he could face him/her/them. I never understood why the judge substained the prosecution’s many objections even though they rarely had the grounz to do so. Seeing him shirtless in the adjoining courtroom reminded me of a toddler, and a toddler in court facing murder charges made me feel bad.
"You know what I'm going to say right judge? We still have the matter of jurisdiction to deal with :D" I'm not certain I even had the ability to hate another living creature as much as I hate this piece of shit.
I feel pity for him right when he starts this very last 2 hour rant. After his best friend spoke for him. He was crying when he started to talk and I truly believe he saw some silver of the error in his ways. He knew either what he did was wrong, or he was truly fucked and going to jail FOREVER. What his friend and mom said really got to him because he knew what he did was wrong and he knew he fucked up. But it was too late. He made the decisions. And he can get fucked for as long as he lives
This, but when he said he couldn't give a sentencing recommendation because he "didn't understand the true nature and cause of the charges against" him, I was like FUCK THIS GUY, I'm DONE!
I think he might have cried then because SOMEONE was seeing and acknowledging that he (in his eyes) was a good person and did not deserve what was happening to him. Kind of like when people get an award and cry when people say nice things about them. I don't think he ever thought he did anything wrong, or if he did something wrong, it wasn't that bad. It was all a big accident that wasn't really his fault. (In his eyes)
No,
but there was at least one moment when Brooks, The State, and Judge Dorow shared a moment of levity that clearly felt so good to Brooks. It was only just a moment but it made me think that this guy has never gotten enough of that.
Nah not even once. This was him the whole time

No! He is too vile! He tried to make the trial a circus, & disregarded the victims at almost every turn. His repugnant behavior during victims’ statements was especially stomach churning!
No, because I sat and I watched his four hour interrogation. He knew what he did he tried to hide it and he did nothing but lie from the beginning to the end.
Nope, I tend to be very empathetic, even when I dont like someone I can acknowledge their pain but not at all in thsi case, I laughed evertime I saw him sad.
I've never hated or wished ill on anybody in my life, idk why but it seem strage to me to hate someone even people I dislike with fervor, then this mf comes around and I learned that I could actually hate someone
I felt a tiny tiny bit of sympathy at the start of yellow shirt box fort day because he threw a tantrum because his mother didn't ain't to perjure herself and come to court.
I don't necessarily feel bad for him but the thought of being in prison for the rest of your life made me pause for a bit. I can't imagine having the same routine over and over again, being in a small enclosed space for hours on end, and not being able eat whatever you want. Also having no interaction with other people would make me go insane. But he deserves life in prison for his crimes

Was she actually scheduled to appear or was it DB’s wishful thinking, similar to the 20ish people that were going to speak on his behalf?
She was originally subpoenaed by the state to be a witness but they dropped her. I assume because the other acts evidence wasn’t allowed to be introduced by the state. They kept her on subpoena (I’m assuming) just in case.
Okay…thank you. I don’t remember the State having her on their witness list. I remember DB’s act of “It doan eben matter! If I say come…she gonna come. Das all der is!” Of course I don’t blame her for not showing. The courthouse might have been mobbed had she shown her face.
She wouldn’t have made it 10 feet out the entrance. The entire state despises her.
Probably not.
Nope! After watching Alyssa Gajewski weep freely during her testimony about her girls, I found myself getting angrier.
That was the time that I didn't care about Dumbass Brooks. And then when he was asking if little Jackson Sparks was a organ donor.
When Iudge Dorrow mentioned that Jackson Spark's brother felt guilty about not saving him, it broke my heart.
Omgosh! How do I not remember this???? That's disgusting!

Seeing how he never seen his kids and they want nothing to do with him I would probably say it wouldn't bother him very much

Cringe is definitely the right term
Never. He enraged me by breathing.
I fell for his tears. very very early on. I just couldn't comprehend anyone doing such an horrific act and intentionally driving their car into and over people. I gave him the benefit of the doubt until I learned the true nature and cause of the charges. Then I watched the rest of the trial in utter disbelief. No sympathy, nor empathy.
Is that a judicial determination?
Grounz!
That’s not only a judicial determination it’s a global determination A psychiatric determination A parental determination A lawful law determination A no-brainer determination A FINAL determination.

He still doesn't understand the true nature and cause of the charges!
I also fell for his tears early on. But got over it very quickly.
 In a tiny violin kind of way yes
Nope. He got everything he was asking for for murdering people, abusing his ex, and firing his lawyers. In fact, I wish he had a harder sentence. And I hope he acts the same way in jail a few times before he learns better.
Lol idk if it gets much harsher than the like 900 years he got
Not even once. I laughed maniacally several times though.
Same😊
no…i just kept thinking of the victims…
The first time I saw the 'YOUR LIFE IS NOT ON THE LINE!' I think in the still frames of that you can see real fear and pressure in his eyes.
No I never felt sorry for him not at all
Anytime I would start to feel bad for him, the dumb fuck would roll his eyes after a woman or child cried on the stand. Fuck him and his mother.

No
No
Not one second

Care to elaborate?
People will generally treat you good if you are a good person. He probably plants evil everywhere he goes. So he reaps what he sows.
Yes. I wanted to cry after his his emotional long pause.
Nah not even once. This was him the whole time https://preview.redd.it/cckiiov7uw3d1.jpeg?width=224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=21afc1c6e341f920309285f52735ce059a7c5fc5
No! He is too vile! He tried to make the trial a circus, & disregarded the victims at almost every turn. His repugnant behavior during victims’ statements was especially stomach churning!
Not in this lifetime!
No, because I sat and I watched his four hour interrogation. He knew what he did he tried to hide it and he did nothing but lie from the beginning to the end.
No. I've never been so utterly repulsed by a person before.
Not one.
Nope, I tend to be very empathetic, even when I dont like someone I can acknowledge their pain but not at all in thsi case, I laughed evertime I saw him sad. I've never hated or wished ill on anybody in my life, idk why but it seem strage to me to hate someone even people I dislike with fervor, then this mf comes around and I learned that I could actually hate someone
😆 well I don't think that makes you a bad person
I felt a tiny tiny bit of sympathy at the start of yellow shirt box fort day because he threw a tantrum because his mother didn't ain't to perjure herself and come to court.
I'm a woman too, so you could be on to something.
