BREAKING: The jury has reached a verdict in the murder trial of Darrell Brooks. It will be read aloud at 10:45 a.m. local time. @fox6now #DarrellBrooksTrial
The courtroom is full of victims & their families today, as you might imagine. There’s a handful of people waiting outside hoping to get in too. @fox6now #DarrellBrooksTrial
Here we go. The jury is re-entering the courtroom. Again, it’s a full house in there. There are now a dozen or so people gathered outside too that were hoping to get in but won’t. @fox6now #DarrellBrooksTrial
The foreperson is juror 11. He said they have reached unanimous verdicts on all counts. Forms were handed to Judge Dorow. @fox6now #DarrellBrooksTrial
Dorow confirms there are 76 signed verdicts and 76 unsigned, which is what she expected.
Brooks is GUILTY on all six counts of first-degree intentional homicide. The jury says he did commit first-degree intentional homicide with a dangerous weapon. A member of the gallery yelled, “Go to hell, you piece of s**t” and was ejected. @fox6now #DarrellBrooksTrial
The jury also found Brooks GUILTY of first-degree recklessly endangering safety while using a dangerous weapon in counts 7-9. There are dozens more of those counts. @fox6now #DarrellBrooksTrial
