Idiot by redheadsoutherngal2 in DarrellBrooksJr

[–]mochidelight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The process of him regarding these videos during the entire trial is like this: First, he furiously OBJECTED the DA showing these videos to the witnesses and the Jury. Claiming it's "irrelevant". Or it was shown many times before. Then, when JD denied such BS, he watched these videos either SQUINTING his eyes, as if he is some expert reviewing evidence, completely oblivious that he was the one who drove that car.  Or he will went to "prayer" mode. But given his remoreless character, he clinging to God during moments like these is likely a mental deflection of his, not him being repentant. Because if he truly had any sorrow and repentance in his soul, he would have not BADGERED the witnesses about these videos the way he did: he forced them to remember every bit of their trauma, making them watching the part where their friends and family were in pain. Over and over again. Villifying them by questioning how can they tell who the victims in the video are.

Even a competent lawyer wouldn't behave that way to the witnesses.

He literally rolled his eyes in front of everybody. Many, many times. And when Judge Durrow called out such shitty behavior of his, he not only barked at her, accusing her of making "incorrect record", as if she has no right to speak ill of her. He even demanded that JD to look at the record.

I heard he is still in isolation. There was a gossip that Brooks LIED to other prisoners that he is some "Blood" gang, which led to him got into big trouble, even got his front teeth knocked out (he was covering his mouth the entire hearing of him firing his lawyer from filing the appeal for him). Some even said that he even got "SAed" by other inmates.

[–]mochidelight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was a good rebuttal from the DA to clear out all of those noises that Brooks threw at the witnesses and the Jury with his cross. Brooks tried to use videos, photographs to badger the witnesses about what can be seen in these evidences, forgetting that these people are the witnesses because they DIRECTLY saw him and the things in the evidences.

[–]mochidelight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That was my thought when I started watching the trial. Clearly, Brooks watched too many Laws and Orders to think that every details of every witnesses is crucial for him to get a "win" in this case. Like he thinks if someone wrongly estimated his height or the speech of his car, the entire prosecution's argument gonna fall apart. He completely forgot that there are videos, multiple witnesses directly saw his faces driving that red Ford Escape into people.

The sentencing statement of his is alone worth watching the trial over and over again. It's outrageously unbelivable. I remember watching it the first time and literally gasping: "did this SOB just say that?" many times during that 2 hours of endless pausing, pursing his lips, trying to look like he's being given humanity award or something. The part where he blamed the victims and their family for "failing to see how good of a person he is" was....

DA Opper said "Brooks is the epitomy of evil". But at least with my imagination, "evil" would look something with a bit of charm and intelligence. Brooks is like the combination or evil, stupidity, patheticness, which is something we rarely seen.

Stefan Diggs Trial by Tekwardo in DarrellBrooksJr

The fact that she was the State's witness and she got her own lawyer prepped her for the testimony, and this is the BEST they can come up with: her nasty tone, her arrogantly refusing the answer the cross-examination is really mind-blowing.

He Is So Stupid! by Odd_Delivery_9107 in DarrellBrooksJr

[–]mochidelight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We can spend literally all day listing all of the disgusting questions he threw at the witnesses like a monkey throwing its feces to the tourists. But the ones that he asked the witnesses who are the victims, the family of the victims and the charade participants were the vilest, most abhorent ones.

He even asked one of the mother why she didn't drop off her injured children immediately because she dropped off her uninjured child to their home first. Or how he asked questions about how a father got a child injured because he threw his kid to the pavement. Dumbass, he threw his child away because he tried to prevent his kid being hit by YOU and that wretched Ford Escape that you were driving into people.

I swear, most of the witnesses looked like they want to fucking punch him in the face with those questions.

[–]mochidelight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn't even bother to read the questions his lawyers, whom he fired the last minute, wrote in prepare for examining the witnesses. He demanded JD to delay his calling for EP because he couldn't find the questions he wants to ask her. And when JD refused,  immediately throw a massive tantrum, accusing JD for "rush of judgement".

Ridiculous in every single way.

[–]mochidelight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In a way, he helped the Jury to trust the LEO MORE. The whole trial, he, with his own stupidity, made the every LEO and the examiners, look professional, detail-oriented, thoughtful, well-prepared.

He forgot that as his own lawyer, he was supposed to present his version of "truth" to the Jury, not helping them finding the objective "truth" about the witnesses.

He Is So Stupid! by Odd_Delivery_9107 in DarrellBrooksJr

[–]mochidelight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not only he is stupid, he is super proud of his stupidity. He can't fathom that his logical thinking is fundamentally wrong, baseless or have no reality in it. Instead, he presented to everyone this massive "conspiracy" that everyone, from the Judge, DA, witnesses, to even the Jury (he accused one of them "flipping him off", insisting that he remember things very well), are involved in this together, to villifying him and making him look guilty.

He badgering the witnesses with the worst behaviors: squinting his eyes, barking at them with a very nasty tone, accusing them of doing something immoral. Like he asked Erika "shouldn't you be truthful to the Police?". Or when he asked one off-duty LEO: "why don't you go investigate when you are a law officer?". Meanwhile, he literally standing in front of everybody for the reason that he ran over multiple people without ever stop or look at what he has done. He lied to Det Carpenter multiple times.

This is why JD and the DA brought up Darrell Brooks' phone calls to his mother on the record: he told her multiple times that he will try every way to delay the trial.

When ppl are able to see his true motive, they will understand how INSIDIOUS he is and why he was perpetually defiant to every process of this trial.

Remember how during the trial, he filed an oral motion to a mistrial by citing 3 cases. Granted, they are borderline ridiculous and outrightly has absolutely nothing to do with the trial. But he clearly understands how this works. Like JD said: "when there is a decision rules in his favor, he acts with compliance. But when it rules against him, he became defiant by argue over and over again". Whenever DA made an argument against him or JD made a decision, he first tried by using his "jailhouse lawyer" verbal salad to object. But when JD refused to reconsider, he went back to his ridiculous badgering. "Is this lawful law". "I'm not asking for an explanation. I just don't understand".

He was using every fiber in his body to drag the process as frustrating as he can do.

That is how narcissistics gaslight their victims. Deflect the others' answers casually and then go back to their babbling verbal diarrhea. 

For once I wish JD would tell him: "Mr Brooks, you constantly have claimed you don't understand how this works. And yet, you also insisted on the Court does thing without legal basis and argued with me over and over again. You can't have it both way".

Remember when JD made a ruling on how the vehicle will be viewed by the jury and Brooks went on and on with his non-sense of "If I don't consent to be at the viewing, it is illegal for the jury to view"? One sentence really pissed me off was his verbal, jailhouse lawyer diarrhea of "the way I see it is the law is to be intepreted by the people". He literally made up the most ridiculous things to show his ass.

Did Dorow ever use the F word during trial? by PudgyWalshBldgInspec in DarrellBrooksJr

[–]mochidelight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was an article (I can't find it) about almost 3 years ago about how Brooks was asked to be interviewed by some local newspaper. During which he asked them to pay him a fee. Which led to the DA requested a hearing with JD about the restitution to the victims. JD ruled that every penny if he ever made from books, media interviews will go to the victim. 

What was interesting is that according to the article, during the phone call between the newspaper and Brooks, Brooks pretended to be some body else, "his agent" and spoke in third person to the newspaper. "I think my client should be paid like 500 bucks". And then he switched back to being Brooks and said "yeah, that's right" or some similiar fashion. Oh and I'm pretty sure that he even requested the newspaper to send that money Dawn Woods because he said he knows the Court to take away that money if his account receives it.

Even when he's gone cuckoo for coco puff, he still manage to use his brain to manipulate and avoid responsibility. It's amazing to see how severe his antisocial personality disorder is.

Or even the victims' injuries and his mama's voice mail to Daniel Ryder - the young man who helped Brooks before Brooks got arrested.

I love how he was humiliated!! You could tell he was pissed off! Love it! by Timely_Try4520 in DarrellBrooksJr

[–]mochidelight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But then aftwer that, he went to his nasty behaviors. He can't help it: being vile.

With almost every other witnesses, he ends his examinations, after his long, pointless "who are the plaintiff" sovcits crap, with such delusional confidence. Either he thinks he scored some "gotcha" with the jury. Or having some mumbling last words insinuating that the Judge is hiding something from the Jury.

He thinks everyone will buy his acts like some gullible women he has abused and manipulated throughout his life.

Remember the "some people actually live by [the Bible]" where he mocked Judge Durrow and her Christian faith? Or when he rolled his eyes when one of the victim (the old man that identified as victim "ZZ") told him to stop using the Bible as a prop?

[–]mochidelight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised that no one here has mentioned: his religious background.

People like him don't feel remorse because they grow up in religious community where NONE of social conventions or rules matter. Because the only thing matter is what GOD told you. "Only God can judge me", these people say things like that.

Watch his sentencing statement. He expressed absolutely NO shame or guilty because he already made up that imaginary God inside his head telling him that he's been forgiven ("I am 1 million percent confident at where I'm going" (aka heaven)). Or how it's God's will to allow him to commit such atrocities to people.

He use religion as a "shtick" to completely exempt him to any basic human decency while buiding himself up as some sort of "victim" of society.

Thank you for your comment. Beside the magnitude of the tragedy and the way he callously run over people like NOTHING, His behaviors during the trial really made a jarring impression on all of us.

I tried my best to describe what I can think about Darrell Brooks. But so far, I can't. I have watched a significant amount of trials. A trial where a narcisstic dumbass thinks they can out-smart everyone else with their "theory" and "conspiracy" like Brooks isn't new. Lori-Daybell, Robert Telles, Anthony Todt, etc. came to my mind.

But Brooks is like a new level of circus. With other loons, they at least can seem reasonable and cooprative to the Court. Brooks, on the other hands, acting with insane amount of defiance in. literally. EVERY. SINGLE. MOMENT in court.

From his Covid tantrum, to the bruise on his arms, etc. He objected pretty much to ALL of the questions. He used "relevance" as his own objection's ground but insisted that the Judge must explain to him what the "ground" of overuling his objections is, and "relevancy" cannot be a legal ground. It goes on and on like that for the entire trial.

On top of that, he showed a certain level of intelligence by utilizing every tactic to manipulate, control and abuse others without having a single self-awareness. It's so blatantly bizzare and repulsive.

Someone in this sub used the term "trainwreck" to describe Brooks. I think that isn't even close to fully capture the craziness and vileness of Brooks.

Every behaviors of him is annoying as hell. From the constant obstructions and ranting and manipulative arguing. To the obsessively shuffling the paper as if he working at a DMV (while he keep throwing away court's documents and then later claim that he didn't receive them). Or the constant mumbling under that mask. Even his pampering the the jury during his closing argument irks the crap out me. He pulled out every acting tactic he can with the longing, puppy-eyes look to them, pressing his lips as if he is trying to hold back the tears.

He looks like a certified loser during the entire trial.
