Waukesha Christmas parade suspect Darrell Brooks has stripped off in court, in a bizarre series of events

Waukesha Christmas parade suspect Darrell Brooks is accused of killing 6 people and has appeared in court, shirtless.

In a bizarre series of events, the 40-Year-Old is representing himself and consistently disrupted the court proceedings.

That’s when Judge Jennifer Dorow decided to move the defendant to another room to participate via video link, with the ability to mute him.

However, the antics continued as he removed his shirt, putting his back to the camera.

"He took his shirt off as well and I'm also told that he is threatening to throw and break items," Judge Dorow noted. https://t.co/ceGXsVF4yK

He threatened to throw and break items nearby. He then took off his shoe and refused to sit down.

Judge Dorow believes his actions are an attempt at delaying his trial.

Brooks is staring down the barrel at six first degree intentional homicide charges and 61 counts of reckless endangerment.

This could see him handed down a punishment of life behind bars.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump squared off in their first and possibly only debate, with both sides taking some big swings.

Harris wasted no time poking fun at Trump’s rallies, even daring viewers to see for themselves.

That dig clearly got under Trump’s skin.

At one point, Trump bizarrely claimed immigrants were eating pets in Ohio – a claim swiftly debunked by the moderators.

Harris hit Trump hard on his election fraud claims, reminding voters that 81 million Americans fired him in 2020.

Things heated up when the two accused each other of using the Justice Department for political attacks – calling each other threats to democracy. #featured #trending #hotshots
