Waukesha Christmas Parade defendant removed from court twice during jury selection
CHICAGO (CBS) -- The 2021 Waukesha Christmas parade trial of the man accused of plowing his car through the route is off to a rocky start.
The defendant, 40-year-old Darrell Brooks, had to be removed from the courtroom twice for disruptive behavior, delaying the start of jury selection.
Brooks, who is defending himself after firing his attorneys, repeatedly talked over the judge and refused to answer basic question.
Brooks faces 77 criminal charges, including six counts of first-degree intentional homicide. If convicted, Brooks could face life in prison.
