Savannah Morning News ^ | 3/29/2013 | Terry Dickson

City Commissioner James Henry Brooks Sr. has been charged with influencing a witness and obstructing the investigation of the fatal shooting of a baby and wounding of his mother March 21.

Brooks, also charged with racketeering in unrelated cases in Camden County, was booked into the Glynn County jail.

He was at the Glynn County Courthouse Monday when the mother of murder defendant De'Marquise Elkins left the courthouse after her son's initial court appearance. As Karimah Elkins and another woman walked from the courthouse, a county police investigator tried to speak with her. Brooks stepped between them and prevented the officer from speaking with the mother, officials said.

A bail of $1,256 has been set on the obstruction charge, but there is no bail on the charge of influencing witnesses, authorities said.

And his peeps ELECTED him to City Commissioner??? OMG

He's justifiably worried by all of this. Those 4 members of the Elkins crime family account for 28 to 30 votes for him at election time.

Actually, Brooks is not acting mayor at the moment. The position Mayor Pro Tem is like assistant or deputy mayor (a position given to a member of the city council or commissioner) who will, if and when needed, stand in for the mayor.

Brooks is taking his cue from Norton Bonaparte down the road in Sanford.

This is just more Black Ku Klux Klan Racism

Just like the Black Ku Klux Klan Racism I see here with the George Zimmerman case...only that the Black KKK has already lynched Baby Antonio

Absolutely distrusting what this politician did
Time for people to wake up....get over the White Guilt Liberal nonsense

CNN has this story on its website, but there is no picture and no mention of the name or party affiliation of the culprit.

Heck....Brooks and ol’ Nap in Sanford are probably related. Heck, Brooks may be one of the DeeDee Witness #8 s

Can Sharptoon and Jaclkasson be far behind?

Not until the trial, when they will come a-runnin' and declare that if there are whites on the jury it will be an unfair trial.
