MADISON -- A judge is set to decide Friday whether a Milwaukee man accused of plowing his SUV through a Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring dozens more, will stand trial for murder.Darrell Brooks Jr. is set to appear in Waukesha County court before Judge Michael Bohren for a preliminary hearing. Such hearings, when the judge decides whether there's enough evidence to hold a defendant for trial, are usually a formality but can shed light on defense and prosecution strategies.CORRECTIONS*

Send the SUV to the 'crusher'.
It will NEVER murder again.

What the hell else would they try him for? Not having a parade permit. Exceeding the speed limit? Really?

Is the other option trying him or hanging the judge for even considering this…

This being Waukesha County, and not Milwaukee County (where the perp/murderer was released for free), I expect that the good (Republican) people of that community have elected a tough DA that hasn't bought into the Soros mystique.
Justice will be served.

You never know, as the way ultra liberal politics has been going in Wisconsin, this Judge may well turn the perpetrator out on the streets again without him having to post any bail.

The article mentions that Wisconsin Republican legislators are introducing bills to require larger bail for these miscreants. Even the Democrat governor and attorney general says they would approve some stronger measures.
Of course, the fact that said Democrat governor and attorney general are up for re-election this year may be a simple coincidence.
I was pleased on a trip to Green Bay last year to see a yard sign "Worst Governor EverS"

I would bet until I see who appointed the judge.

Back in the fifties, a hit man in the employ of then Governor of Texas, Lyndon B Johnson, was on trial for 1st degree murder. The coroner had previously returned a finding of suicide for the victim who somehow managed to fire five high powered rifle bullets into his torso, without leaving powder burns.
Texas Rangers got involved and matched fingerprints on the shell casings (the gun had been wiped clean by the deceased, apparently) and brought in their suspect. The jury returned a verdict of 1st degree murder.
The judge, sentenced the killer to time served. This was called sarcastically back then, "Texas Justice".

The case will proceed to a trial. The defendant will not plead guilty to murder. The prosecutor will not reduce the murder charges. The jury will decide. Prediction: Life in prison with no chance of parole.

Let's hope the judge doesn't bust a gut pondering whether to charge the driver, the SUV, or both. There's a lot to think about here. When the atrocity happened and CNN blamed the vehicle, I suggested that the SUV be sentto Goldfinger's car crusher, get mashed into a little cube, dropped into Oddjob's El Camino, and driven away.

The video of this dude mowing people down and killing them might be pretty good evidence that murder was committed. But what do I know.

The video is enough to convict the clown. A judge is going to decide? How about letting the relatives of the people who he ran over decide. I say tie his ass to the back of an SUV and drag his sorry butt around town.

If he had been a white guy mowing down a parade in Detroit, would his even be a close call?

Not just murder but mass murder and a hate crime. Might as well add DUI and domestic violence to the list.

Wonder how the judge would rule if the perp had used an automatic firearm or a bomb planted in a pressure cooker instead?
Yo, Judge, does the means of delivery matter, if the result is six innocent deaths?

It was our beloved Rush Limbaugh who caught on to the 'blame the SUV' game very early on.
And, #12, I would respectfully disagree with your analysis. He may be charged with first degree murder, and go to trial, but I would predict a hung jury, mistrial, plea deal for manslaughter. It only takes one juror to buy an argument that the lad was so upset with his uncooperative girlfriend, he didn't know what he was doing. And besides that, the dancing grandmas were not doing hip hop, which profoundly offended him, from a cultural standpoint. (were there any black grandmas dancing? If not, yet another defense)

What if a WHITE driver intentionally drove his SUV through a Christmas parade killing 6 black people and injuring many more? Media would start their expected performances with White privilege and white supremacy and racism. It's murder no matter what color the driver is or the victims are. So race-dividers invent.

Any lawyer worth their salt would ask for a change of venue. And they’re still using the “lightened” photo of him.

Clicking on the link now brings up: "Waukesha parade suspect to stand trial for murder." He was bound over for trial. The original headline was click bait...really, his arraignment was a foregone conclusion.

Why waste money on a trial? We know he did it, just tie him in the middle of a street and take turns running over the pos.

White people invited to Madison to await the outcome of the judge's decision. We could make the George Floyd riots look like a bake sale. It's all perfectly legal too!

He is black, so I suspect the charge will be Reckless driving.

We’ve given way, way, way too much discretion to our judiciary.

Oh Goodie, a Judge.
Judges have proven themselves so wonderful lately, Every decision one to protect the citizenry in general, rather than the miscreants and the leftist politicians

The S.O.B. is described by AssPress as a Wisconsin parade suspect. How about cold blooded granny killer, you worthless jackwagons?

The killer is Black and the victims were White so the judge will want the SUV to stand trial.

Hey, I agree no trial,, just take him out and hang him. You notice these DA's say the no bail is fair because the poor can't pay them. But they never say that about letting poor children have school choice for their children. Rich kids can go to whatever private school their folks can pay tuition but poor kids have to go to government schools. Let the money follow the kid.
