I would like to represent myself pro per," Brooks answered the judge when she asked him if he wanted to represent himself. "I've already said it on record, to represent myself as a sovereign citizen."

    These lawyers are holding their breath hoping they can be done with this crazy guy.
  • @bJT42
    This is the type dude who’s been able to talk himself out of accountability his entire life, he honestly believes he’s the smartest person in the room wherever he goes, even if he’s talking to an actual law expert.
  • "I think I'll be better served representing myself." Famous last words.
  • Sovereign citizen’s should pay the court costs and the cost of incarceration.
  • His attorneys are like THANK YOU GOD we don’t have to listen to his BS anymore.
  • As his own attorney, he ultimately did a great job of getting his client the verdict he deserved. You can't ask for better representation than that right?
  • This judge is making sure he DOES not have any grounds for a mistrial! Love her patience and thoroughness
  • @robr9313
    "I think I would be better served representing myself." Narrator: "He was not."
  • @renecantu684
    Every attorneys’ worst nightmare is getting a client like this….🤦‍♂️
  • @Troutslayer
    A sovereign citizen with constitutional rights. Love it.
  • @Jim-H
    He who represents himself, has a fool for a client. I don’t think it could be any more obvious than in this case.
  • He's treating this like hes getting one up on his teacher in high school. Absolutely revolting behavior for someone who killed six people and injured MANY others. no remorse, no guilt, no accountability. sick individual.
  • I’ve dated men who behave this way- you can tell he’s deflected, filibustered, made circular arguments to gas light and escape accountability his entire life. Imagine this narcissist in an argument with a girlfriend- yikes.
  • @lwalker8785
    Sovereign citizens believe the law doesn't apply to them, they can literally commit murder and walk away scot free. This guy is going to get a very rude awakening.
  • @CorSmit
    Please, let him represent himself. It’s called the “Digging Your Own Grave” approach
  • @danagray9709
    For those of you who don't speak"Sovereign Citizen," there's a reason he seems to be searching for ways to not say "I understand." Sovereign citizens believe that by saying "I understand," they're actually saying "I stand under" and this acknowledging the court's authority over them. He is planning to go the "you can't put me in jail because I never said the magic word" defense. This should be entertaining.
  • @bucc5207
    When he says he didn't understand what his lawyers were doing, and why they wouldn't file certain motions, what he means is he refused to accept the truths they told him about the legal process.
  • @MaddaxxxE
    I have watched hours of this guys antics in court and had no idea how brutal of a crime he actually committed. I just saw the crash footage and have not a single word to describe how much pain I feel for those families. This guy is a demon.
