MADISON — John Chisholm’s reputation for injecting politics into prosecution precedes him, and that might be reason enough why no Milwaukee taxpayer has yet to file a complaint (as of Wednesday night) against the Democratic Milwaukee County district attorney on charges of prosecutorial misconduct, legislative sources say. Republican lawmakers, among others, are urging Gov. Tony Evers to fire Chisholm after his office recommended a mere $1,000 bail for the man suspected to have killed six people and injured some 60 more in the Waukesha Christmas parade massacre. As Empower Wisconsin reported Wednesday, Evers will not even consider opening an investigation...

Darrell Brooks is the career felon who killed five people and injured over 40 by purposely barreling through a barricade and driving through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin on Sunday. Not only does Brooks have the proverbial rap sheet a mile long, but he’s apparently a BLM supporter general hater of white people.Not the perpetrator for which the left was hoping. Despite the MSM’s accomplished and accustomed lying, Brooks is a tough customer for them to make into a saint. If they can’t do that, they’ll try to make sure he is forgotten as quickly as possible, much like...

Darrell Brooks was busted in March 2007 for calling in a bomb threat to the $43-per-night Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada, ... He was put on probation after being convicted of conspiring to disturb the peace - a gross misdemeanor - and was banned from the casino for life..

Brooks was also charged with failing to inform the police of a change of address while a registered sex offender.....

Inappropriately and dangerously low bail recommendations have been a hallmark of the Milwaukee District Attorney’s Office since Democrat John Chisholm was first elected.Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm has launched an investigation into what he called the “inappropriately low” bail set for Darrell Brooks, Jr., the suspect in the deadly Christmas parade attack in nearby Waukesha, Wis. Sunday afternoon.Brooks, who faces five counts of first-degree intentional homicide, was freed after posting $1,000 bail even though he faces serious felony charges in two different open cases in Milwaukee.

The ex-con charged over the deaths of six people at a Wisconsin Christmas parade shared social media posts calling for violence against white people — and suggesting “Hitler was right” for killing Jews. Darrell Brooks Jr. — who has a decades-long rap sheet — shared a series of disturbing memes and messages on social media, most of which have been deleted since his arrest for Sunday’s deadly carnage. They included numerous posts attacking cops, comparing them to Ku Klux Klan members and calling them “violent street gangs” — as well as calling for violence toward white people, according to screenshots....

Yesterday 8 year old Jackson Sparks succumbed to the injuries sustained when he was struck by a vehicle drive by Darrell Brooks. He was the sixth person to die in the Waukesha killing spree. At least 62 other were injured. Brooks was released from custody a couple of days before with a low bail after trying to run over a woman- the mother of his child. Milwaukee DA John Chisolm says it's all worth it. Chisolm, backed by George Soros, has been a champion for criminals for some time. Chisholm has been a leading figure among "progressive prosecutors," leftwing lawmen...

Anger mounted Tuesday after bail for a man accused of killing six and injuring 62 others by plowing his SUV into them at a Christmas parade in Wisconsin was set at $5 million - despite him having already been free on bail from a previous crime at the time of Sunday's carnage.

This week, a 39-year-old black man in Waukesha, Wisconsin, plowed a maroon Ford Escape into a Christmas parade of children and older women. Five people were killed and another 48 were injured. The motive of the suspect is unknown; if the media have their way, it will remain that way. The media apparently only care about why suspects commit violent acts when motives can be credited to their political enemies. There is one thing we do know: the suspect should not have been on the street. He had a rap sheet longer than the first five books of the Bible....

Image via GoFundMe According to an update on a GoFundMe page, 8-year-old Jackson Sparks died Tuesday afternoon from head injuries he sustained during the Waukesha Christmas parade attack. Jackson’s cousin Alyssa posted, “This afternoon, our dear Jackson has sadly succumbed to his injuries and passed away.” The GoFundMe account was set up earlier this week after Jackson and his 12-year-old brother Tucker were both seriously injured after Darrell E. Brooks intentionally plowed his SUV through the Waukesha Christmas parade on Sunday.

Eyewitness reports in affidavit confirm attack was deliberate.. The affidavit against the Christmas parade killer states that Darrell Edward Brooks Jr drove in a zig zag pattern in order to “hit as many” people as possible, confirming yet again that the massacre was a deliberate attack. Ever since the incident, the media has tried to play down any possibility that the attack was motivated by Brooks’ extremist political views, his support for BLM or violent hatred for white people. This was exemplified in the hours after the tragedy, when numerous outlets falsely reported that Brooks was merely trying to flee...

A man accused of ramming a car into Christmas-parade-goers in Wisconsin is to be charged with six deaths after another victim-a child-died. Darrell Brooks was formally arraigned for five deaths during a court appearance on Tuesday, but prosecutors said they would update the charges. Nearly 50 people were also injured in the attack in Waukesha. Police say Mr. Brooks deliberately targeted the crowd. Bail was set at $5m (&3.7m) due to his extensive criminal background. The boy killed was eight year old Jackson Sparks, who was hit alongside his 12-year old brother Tucker. He had been marching with his baseball...

Milwaukee County, WI – The Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office refused to prosecute more than 60 percent of the felony charges police forwarded for prosecution last year. Prosecutors refused to pursue charges in more than 80 percent of misdemeanor filings in December of 2020 alone, Wisconsin Right Now reported. These statistics stemmed from cases that were rejected after being filed, which means the total number of cases Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm’s office refused to file is even higher, according to Wisconsin Right Now. The number of dropped cases, referred to as “no process” cases, was up approximately 10...

Media assertions in the immediate aftermath of the massacre in Waukesha that the killer did not deliberately drive into his victims because he was being ‘pursued by police’ have been proven completely untrue. Imagine my shock. In the early hours after the horror unfolded, the corporate press settled on the narrative that culprit Darrell Edward Brooks Jr was ‘fleeing the scene of a crime’ after being involved in a ‘knife fight’.

The Waukesha District Attorney whose office let out parade killer Darrell Brooks on a $1,000 bond three weeks ago previously admitted he knew his laxed bail reform would lead to killers being set free and murdering others, saying flippantly in a 2007 interview: 'You bet, it's guaranteed to happen.' John Chisolm was elected as Milwaukee County District Attorney in 2007 and he immediately started advocating for lower cash bonds for criminals, like Brooks - a felon with a history of domestic violence charges who was most recently locked up for running over the mother of his children. In 2007, Chisolm...

The 39-year-old man accused of driving an SUV into a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, on Sunday was charged earlier this month with trying to run over a woman. Waukesha Police Chief Dan Thompson said Monday that Darrell Brooks Jr. will face five charges of first-degree intentional homicide in connection with the horrific incident, in which at least five people were killed and more than 40 injured, according to USA Today. On Sunday, as the parade was taking place, an SUV plowed through barricades and marchers, many of them children. Brooks, who was out on bail at the time, was...

The district attorney facing criticism after the alleged Waukesha Christmas parade crash killer was freed on bond two days before the carnage describes himself as a “bold reformer” and has taken credit for inspiring a wave of “progressive prosecutors” across the US. Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm, who was elected to the position in 2007, has spent his career supporting cash-bail system reform because he argues it criminalizes poverty. Chisholm has long pushed to divert nonviolent offenders away from the prison system with alternate programs, and has spoken previously about reducing the number of incarcerations in Milwaukee County.

The suspect accused of mowing down a crowd of holiday revelers in Wisconsin was captured in a doorbell camera before his arrest pleading for help and telling a resident he was waiting for an Uber, according to video obtained Monday by NBC News. The Nov. 21 video also shows authorities arriving at the Waukesha home and telling the suspect, Darrell Brooks, 39, to put his hands up. It isn’t clear whether the house, roughly a half-mile from the Waukesha Christmas parade route that Brooks is accused of plowing into, is where police placed him under arrest.

The suspect in the deadly Christmas parade attack in Waukesha, Wisconsin, rapped “f–k Donald Trump” and “f–k the pigs” in one of his songs under the name Mathboi Fly. Darrell Brooks, 39, who has an extensive criminal past, faces five counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the vehicular rampage that left five people, ranging in age from 39 to 81, dead and 48 others injured. The aspiring rapper posted songs with explicit lyrics on SoundCloud, including an anti-Trump and anti-police song called “X.”

What if Darrell Brooks had been shot dead by police officers while fleeing a felony in Waukesha, Wis., Sunday afternoon — and never got near that tragic city’s Christmas parade? Would the nation’s cities be in flames once again? Odds are the answer is yes — and that sad but entirely reasonable projection speaks loudly to the deranged state of law enforcement in America today. And, in particular, to the nation’s bewildering inability — make that unwillingness — to confront the chaos and lethal violence now plaguing its cities. Brooks was charged with five counts of murder Monday as Wisconsin...
