Brooks is a registered sex offender with two open cases and an extensive criminal history who is representing himself in court as he trial launches in Waukesha County on October 3, 2022.
Read the criminal complaint against Brooks here. It describes how two detectives tried to stop him to no avail as he plowed his vehicle into parade participates, after he began to “rapidly accelerate.”
The officer believed “this was an intentional act to strike and hurt as many people as possible…He observed the vehicle appeared to be intentionally moving side to side, striking multiple people, and bodies and objects were flying from the area of the vehicle.”
A witness told police the SUV drove in a “zig zag motion. It was like the SUV was trying to avoid vehicles, not people. There was no attempt made by the vehicle to stop, much less slow down. Another witness aid he felt it was a “direct intent to hit as many parade participants.”
