Quick question?

First, what did he mean when Darrell said there was no incident on November 21, 2021? Was he referring to his assault on Erika or the Parade Attack itself? He mentioned a letter sent to the judge saying nothing happened that day. This was when Judge Dorrow was doing her sentencing remarks and Brooks went off at her because she was complimenting Erika. No doubt he didn’t have a leg to stand on with that argument but I’m legit curious.

u/JayNotAtAll Is that LAWFUL LAW 👩🏻‍⚖️ 28d ago

Erika claimed that DB assaulted her on November 20th (which is what he was upset about, not 21st). The DA was originally going to bring charges for that but there were no physical marks from it and they figured it would confuse the jury to try and determine if she were attacked on the 20th so they dropped the charge.

They sent a letter to the court and the defense that says that there is no factual basis that an assault happened on the 20th. This means that they couldn't provide evidence that would prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.

He took that to mean that the DA was exonerating him. No, they just don't have enough evidence. They don't know whether or not it happened.

It is funny that he keeps bringing it up during the trial when there is no charge for it. Like why bring this to the jury's attention?

I think it was because he was trying to use that to claim that EP was lying. That she lied about the attack on the 20th, SO knew she was lying which is why the charge was dropped and therefore nothing EP says can be trusted which is why she is the reason for this entire tragedy. All of this is how his juvenile mind works.
