Remember the Waukesha “parade crash” last November that was “caused by an SUV?” The jury has been selected, and the person driving that SUV, Darrell Brooks, has chosen to represent himself in court. And from the looks of things, he’s doing a bang-up job. The Post Millennial points out that Brooks asked the judge to dismiss his case because none of the injured (or dead) were present in court to make accusations against him. If they couldn’t be bothered to show up …

The victims might not physically be there in court, but the righteous hand of the Lord will soon greet him.
