A person of interest in the SUV attack that killed at least five and injured dozens more at a quaint holiday parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, on Sunday has been identified as a 39-year-old who recently posted bail on reckless-endangerment charges.

Darrell Brooks was taken into custody as a person of interest and was being questioned in connection with the Sunday evening incident involving a red Ford Escape that plowed through barricades and into the crowd, sparking panic and unleashing mass bloodshed, NBC News first reported. The sprawling disaster left members of the Milwaukee Dancing Grannies among the dead, and at least a dozen children and a priest among the injured.

NBC News cited five law-enforcement officials who also noted investigators were looking into the possibility the Milwaukee resident had been fleeing an earlier incident involving a knife fight at the time of the Sunday parade. Brooks has not been charged with a crime nor named an official suspect in the Sunday incident, but the Associated Press also reported Brooks was a person of interest, citing two officials.

Public records show Brooks has a significant criminal history in Wisconsin that spans over two decades. This past Friday, he posted a cash bond in connection with charges including resisting or obstructing an officer, bail jumping, recklessly endangering safety with domestic-abuse assessments, disorderly conduct with a domestic-abuse assessment, and battery.

1. The fall out begins n/t

[taxi]

6. turn it around

yea, he had a knife
to defend himself against the armed KR's coming at him
vigalante justice has become real

[Devil Child]

9. No thanks, I'll leave the turning around exercises to you and others

This thread is about the perpetrator of last night’s violence.

[taxi]

12. The fallout ends.

[BlackSkimmer]

14. Not for a minute.

This will have repercussions for quite some time.

[taxi]

18. Exactly

The same pretzel logic that they used to create this problem is becoming their albatross

[sarisataka]

13. Turn it around? As in defend him?

Assuming the named person was in a knife fight-

If he was defending himself from someone trying to inflict vigilante justice for his past crimes- yes I would support him on self-defense

If was was in a knife fight for any other reason- I would not support him

Whomever drove through the parade- that is indefensible

[taxi]

23. I agree in his actions being indefensible

The thinking is only in lines of what possible defense could be raised, even if it means thinking against your interests.
So this guy, any guy with any history, runs from the armed vigilantes with his knife in hand, and fleeing for his life in his vehicle, makes the choice to run through what he perceives as protesters.

[Devil Child]

25. Well, that is some thinking.

Doesn’t mean it is pertinent, logical, or useful to the topic at hand. Which is a deliberate vehicular attack by a career felon on bond for violent crime which allowed him physical availability to carry out this crime.

[taxi]

28. Had to take a moment to cut my own albotross off, crow is tastier

Yea. Reactive thinking is my downfall. Sorry

I was addressing that the same arguements used against us, be used by us.

[BlackSkimmer]

8. Yep, guarantee these videos will be used in the next elections.

Not to mention the recent Nordstrom, Louis Vuitton, etc videos.

[Devil Child]

10. Agreed, it leaves a sinking feeling.

Chaos imagery and fear is red-meat for campaign ads. Even more so when actual occurrences can be used to support it.

[catsudon]

11. and beating of asians

yes, i keep a tab on these for my own interest.

[BlackSkimmer]

15. True enough.

Those don’t get near enough attention, imo.

[Hav]

20. Yes, especially if this defund the police bs

gains support again.

[jimfields33]

16. The judge and prosecutor should be charged with negligence

They let this killer out on bond.

[Devil Child]

21. Agreed jimfields33 n/t

[BradAllison]

2. Great job, asshole

This dickhead just laid the groundwork for the right wing's election framework. And the drugged out fuck probably doesn't even know who "AOC" or Joe Manchin is.

[malaise]

3. huh/ N/T

[Aristus]

4. Yeah, I don't think he's getting his bail back...

Lock this asshole up...

[janterry]

5. Recent charges: reckless endangerment, battery, domestic abuse, resisting arrest and bail jumping

Brooks’ most recent court appearance came on Nov. 5 for charges including reckless endangerment, battery, domestic abuse, resisting arrest and bail jumping. He was out on $1,000 bail for those charges at the time of the attack.

[Amishman]

7. many places reporting him as a rapper going by Mathboi Fly

and some very anti-law enforcement, anti-white people supposed social media posts circulating, though the accounts seem to have been taken down so nothing can be verified.

If those posts are real (and that is a VERY big IF), this could lead to some rather nasty backlash.

[jimfields33]

19. As it should. He shouldn't get a free pass by the media or anybody else

He’s a killer and should have his life under microscope and more.

[CentralMass]

17. Have they confirmed that this person of interest was driving the SIV ?

[PatSeg]

22. It appears that they haven't

The bail seemed to be for other unrelated charges. There is a whole lot that we don't know as yet.

[VMA131Marine]

24. How does someone who has jumped bail ...

get out on bail?

[Devil Child]

26. An extremely important question VMA131Marine

Especially with a robust history of violence and predation.
