Darrell Brooks trial: Jury selection, more disruptions from defendant

The process to select a jury for the Darrell Brooks trial began again Tuesday morning, Oct. 4 in Waukesha County. The jury selection process was expected to resume at 8:45 a.m., but almost immediately, there were disruptions and delays from Brooks, picking up right where we left off on Monday. Brooks was again moved to a separate courtroom for the voir dire.

Brooks began interrupting Tuesday’s proceedings before 9 a.m. “I lost count after six interruptions,” Judge Jennifer Dorow said, stopping Brooks.

The defendant kept asking the judge to state her name on the record, asking, “Do you have a claim against me?” The judge told Brooks he could not continue these disruptions. She indicated after the next interruption, he would be removed from the courtroom.

Around 9 a.m., Judge Dorow stopped the proceedings after about a dozen interruptions, telling Brooks minutes before, “You haven’t let me get in one sentence. It is only 8:57.”
