I’ll wait until we see it elsewhere. Literally everything I’ve seen from him turned out to be a lie. At any rate he doesn’t deserve the benefits of any doubts.

Darrell Brooks Jr. had been assessed as a fairly high risk for release from jail two weeks before he allegedly drove through Waukesha's Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring dozens more.
Brooks' release on $1,000 bail has people outraged over the subsequent Nov. 21 tragedy, critiquing an often overlooked and misunderstood part of the criminal justice system — the pretrial risk assessment.
Brooks was arrested in Milwaukee County after police say he punched and ran over a former girlfriend on Nov. 2.
Before his initial appearance on Nov. 5, he was evaluated by JusticePoint, the agency that contracts with Milwaukee County to provide pretrial screening and monitoring services. It conducted a Pretrial Risk Assessment Report on Brooks on Nov. 5.
Such reports are also called Public Safety Assessments and commonly referred to as PSAs. Milwaukee County began implementing them a decade ago.
A tool for the assessment finds where a defendant's likelihood of failing to reappear in court, on the y axis, intersects with his likelihood of new criminal activityon the x axis.
Factors cited for his score included that he was charged with a violent crime while he was out on bail for a prior charge and that he had been convicted and incarcerated for earlier violent crimes.
In his favor was that he had no violations for failure to appear in other cases during the past two years.
The report also noted Brooks "is diagnosed with a serious and persistent illness in which he is not receiving treatment for."
Police reports from the Nov. 2 incident indicate Brooks suffers from mental health issues for which he is supposed to be taking medication. The exact diagnosis was redacted in the reports, obtained last week by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
The PSA also flagged Brooks as a risk to commit a new violent crime. That factor is listed as either a yes or a no, and is not part of the other color scale matrix.
The grid goes from light green (low risk) in one corner, to red (higher risk) in the other corner.
Brooks landed in the red zone, yet his bail was set at $1,000, and he was ordered to have the highest level of supervision by JusticePoint if he made bail.
Technically, that followed the PSA recommendation — Level 5 supervision, and cash bail.

That’s better. But seriously, you’d be wise to do that anytime you see him quoted. Especially if it’s “breaking”.

I did, and I remembered your comment about him. I just thought it would be easier to link the tweet rather than linking the source, cutting and pasting.

Brooks’ case has now become a cause célèbre, not in the mainstream media, which was slammed for initially saying the deadly attack was caused by “a car” that drove into the parade, but by an increasing chorus of influential podcasters like Joe Rogan and online pundits who claim Brooks and his victims in Waukesha have been “swept under the carpet” by the press because it doesn’t fit their agenda.
The growing outcry may be why it was announced Saturday that First Lady Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff will visit Waukesha on Wednesday. Though bordering ultra-Democrat Milwaukee County, Waukesha County is a Republican stronghold.
“We’ve got six people dead and teenagers so badly injured they will have to learn to walk again — at Christmas,” State Rep. Cindi Duchow, a Waukesha resident and Republican, told The Post.
Said Duchow: “Because this was a black guy who did it, the media doesn’t want to cover it. They were all over the Rittenhouse case because that kid was white. Race doesn’t matter to us here, but the media makes everything about race.”
“The left was so sympathetic to Kyle Rittenhouse’s victims but they’re not saying a word about the victims here,” Kapenga said. “It’s not fitting their narrative. The reality is that this person [Brooks] is pure evil and the left’s soft-on-crime policies are blowing up in their face. But they want to ignore it and hope it goes away. Meanwhile the parents of the eight-year-old boy killed at the parade are having to face their first Christmas without him.”
Millard said Brooks’ skin color and the politics of the case don’t matter to her and shouldn’t matter to anyone. She only wishes she could forget the nightmare she and so many others at the parade experienced.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

If Biden showed up this late in the process, he deserves all the scorn cast upon him.

Yeah, the coverage (or lack of) of this crime is really disgusting.

It's impossible to know the damage to the average American's psyche done by the relentless pushing of the race narrative by legacy corporate media, with that baton now handed to the moderation biases of social media. But I think it would be easy to underestimate. The ideas implanted into the brains of the masses create a huge amount of anger and unhappiness, out of nothing. And all, ultimately, in service of gathering votes for the Democrats, and social status for the indoctrinated masses.

FLOTUS spoke at Children's Wisconsin Hospital. The place where some victims are still hospitalized.
Guess what she didn't mention.
Dr. Cunt -which is probably an insult to cunts everywhere - doesn't give a rolling red rat's ass if your children die puking blood. She only cares about power. She only cares about the rapid conversion of America into a socialist nanny state, ran by her, her husband and his cronies, because they deserve their place in power, because they are the only ones smart enough to lead the struggling masses. And should be compensated accordingly.
There are dead grannies and children in Waukesha, killed by a black man who should have never been out on bail. There are sixty people injured by that man, who drove his car recklessly over their prostate bodies. He deserves to die as quickly as out justice system can try, convict and punish him, with his ashes dumped into the wet side of the sewage plant. And I'm not sure he's not better than Dr. Cunt and her husband...He's certainly more honest in his hatred for those middle-class white people that stood in his way of getting what he wanted.
Say their name, bitch. Lie to them and tell them that you care. It's the least you can do for the dead and injured.

Aren't they visiting the victims of the attack? I thought they were, according to the headline.
