Waukesha suspect Darrell Brooks was released on $1,000 bail for allegedly running over an ex-girlfriend with his car just two weeks before the deadly Christmas parade rampage. The court record of that critical bail hearing is lost forever.
In Wisconsin every official court proceeding is memorialized either by a court reporter or a digital recording device. But the transcript of the hearing is permanently gone, an official told Fox News on Tuesday.
"The digital recording is damaged," she said when an attempt was made to order the Nov. 5 transcript.
Career criminal Brooks, 39, allegedly mowed down the mother of one his children with a red Ford Escape Nov. 2 — leaving a tire mark on her left leg, authorities have said.
Despite the serious charges and another pending felony case for shooting at his nephew during a fight in July 2020, a junior prosecutor recommended $1,000 cash bail for Brooks. His mother promptly posted the sum.
About two weeks later, on Nov. 21, Brooks drove the same red Ford Escape into holiday revelers, killing six and injuring 60, authorities say.
After the horrific incident, Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm announced an internal investigation into the widely panned decision to request the paltry bail amount.

When was the last time a bail hearing transcript was lost in the Waukesha court system?
How convenient!
Was/is the "mother of one of his children" White?
Regards,
bttt
The list of lost transcripts has likewise been lost.
Regards,
At this point, the leftist Soros-installed prosecutor is simply trolling us.
Corruption - Right in your Face
That's irrelevant. The attack was in Waukesha County but the bail hearing with the lost transcript was in Milwaukee County.
.
Major cover up in this case.
How did a knife fight become a domestic?
There was no 911 call on the knife fight, the police never responded to the location, and Chief says how could we know if there was a knife?
And Chief says Brooks pushed between two Police cars blocking the parade route. How does driving to Police become fleeing?

Virtually everyone who was in the room....had some bribe-situation probably going on. I’d start with a financial audit of the prosecution staff and the judge.
Like the missing blueprints, video footage and telemetry data from the Apollo 11 Mission. Sometimes incompetence looks like a conspiracy.
.
And all report to the State.
The Wisconsin DOJ took over the case within hours.

Typical DimocRAT run clown show!
I have been practicing law for a while now, and I’ve never heard of a transcript being lost or destroyed within a month of the hearing.
Do they just audio record bail hearings without a court reporter? I suppose it’s possible: there has been a shortage of court reporters for years now, and there are a lot of bail hearings.
If so, how does the recording get “lost”?
Losing or destroying official records of court proceedings is serious. Doing so intentionally is a felony is most jurisdictions.
This is deliberate destruction of court evidence and court records.
The da and that female judge are responsible for this being destroyed.
Uh huh!
Looks like Wisconsin has some systemic leftism.
No need to red flag the omission, full speed ahead.
