The driver of an SUV who plowed through a Milwaukee area Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring dozens of others, was sentenced to life in prison Wednesday.

Darrell Brooks Jr. was found guilty late last month on dozens of criminal charges after a jury found him responsible in the 2021 Christmas parade attack in Waukesha. The sentence, handed down by Waukesha County Circuit Judge Jennifer Dorow, came one day after victims and family members of the dead described the impacts of Brooks' rampage.

Before his sentence, Brooks offered a rambling, two-hour statement, explaining he was sorry for what happened and had repented to God.

    1. We as American people need to stand up against this war. This is not our war. This is our money being sent To a country that’s already in shambles and the war zone. It’s best to just give up the territory to Russia at this point to avoid nuclear annihilation and billions of lies being lost over a already lost country….

    1. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾He should “go out” the way he took others “out”……💀☠️ by SUV 🚙

  1. Please vaccinate him! Please feed him bio engineered food! No fresh vegetables only processed food. That should insure that he won’t last long!
