And he's still entitled to his day in court. The full story isn't known, the event only occurred yesterday.
And if he confesses, or takes a plea, or goes to trial and gets convicted, like I said--this kind of senseless garbage happens day in and day out in the US and around the world. It has nothing to do with lax law enforcement or weak judges or pansy legislatures. Life is chaos and there is no meaning.
Somebody who gets involved in a knife fight--if the story is true--especially somebody with 22 priors, doesn't think about consequences. He or she acts totally in the moment. Even dogs and cats understand consequences. Only humans fail to grasp the concept.
The problem is not that there is evil in the world, the problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?

You forgot to mention all of the video footage and stills taken in realtime from multiple sources and angles depicting the same thing.
Think they all suffer from the same 40% accuracy rate ?
Hope he can scrounge up another $500 quick so he isn't inconvenienced any more than he has been and is able to take advantage of the upcoming Black Friday sales (and crowds).
...but until there's a conviction--or a confession, or a plea--it's not proof. A jury may very well decide that the video isn't clear enough and acquit. Or, the defendant's attorney might argue that it was just a horrible accident. He was fleeing in self-defense because he thought his life was in danger. He lost control of the vehicle and never intended to hit anybody. A jury might very well buy that argument. It's happened before.
He still gets his day in court. It's in the Constitution. Remember?

"... never intended to hit anybody 45+ times in a row ..."
Kind of like, I took an assault rifle somewhere that was in chaos, placed myself in physical danger, but never intended to shoot three people. It was self-defense.
"There was a big fight, I got out of there as fast as I could because I was afraid for my life. The car went out of control, through the barricades, and into the xmas parade. I never intended to run over anybody."
There only has to be reasonable doubt in the minds of the jurists. Self-defense is one argument that often seems to work.

Why am I not surprised you would conflate the 2 ?Kenosha's administration was not protecting the citizens of Kenosha against rioters, looters, arsons, criminals and thugs.
Rittenhouse was not the aggressor on any of the occasions, obvious self defense.
Rittenhouse was requested to do security in his own community by the community.
Rittenhouse submitted himself to the cops, did not flee from them.
.Your failed attempt at conflating the two situations is pathetic.
Rittenhouse should have been given a medal for doing the jobs the politicans would not do. He may soon get that medal in the form of Nick Sandmann out of court $$$$ settlements.
Biden used his defamation statements to further his career and race bait in both writing and verbal assaults before he was POTUS as a civilian. Biden is fair game in addition to the fake news outlets to compensate Rittenhouse for slander, libel and defamation of character.

I didn't even imply anything, you merely inferred.
Anyway what you think is irrelevant. The only thing that counts is what a jury believes, if it gets to trial. If the video evidence is as incontrovertible as you believe it is, then self-defense is a logical defense.
Maybe Mr. Brooks can break down and cry on the stand. That might help his case, especially if he cries for the victims and not for himself.

So you were implying names (nt)
You inferred it all.
Apparently I struck a nerve, seein' as how much spit was flying.
This is all still a breaking story. It'll be months, maybe a year before it goes to trial. By then, all the "facts" that everybody is so certain of now, could be that none of them are true.
Not sayin' will be. Just could be.

So what do you think his bail should be set at considering he has a documented history of bail jumping in his 50 page rap sheet among other assorted convictions and charges?
Do you think he should be out on the streets for a year until trial to further backlog the courts ???
I have no idea how much bail should be set at or if Mr. Brooks should be held without bail. His attorney will argue that matter in court and a judge will decide.
Per law. My opinion and your opinion are irrelevant, which is as it should be.

Petty sure that means something to you.
Let's hope he can learn from it.
Previously he has not.

you'll notice that those who can't differentiate between 'proof' and 'evidence' always seem to have a situational grasp of the meaning
*sigh*
Some folks think constitutional protections only apply to guns.
But the 5th and 6th Amendments deal with jury trial, right to counsel and due process, the right to confront an accuser.
The 8th Amendment prohibits excessive bail.
My brother-in-law is one of those guys. Loves the Constitution more than life itself, but he'd repeal two-thirds of it, especially every amendment after 1865.

Believing the Constitution of the US does not preclude people from having a brain and recognizing repetitive lifestyles as you imply.
They have a word for it. It is called recidivism (22 years in this case) and bail should be applied accordingly. No-one should win a "get out of jail free" card because of race as the left implies. That is the definition of racism, multiple sets of standards based on race.
'recognizing repetitive lifestyles as you imply'
he didn't imply any such thing shortbread, the only one saying this has been YOU while assigning opinions & attitudes to others which they don't have, while blaming political orientations for crimes / tragedies for even happening!! ... with invective thrown in of course ... as if you think liberals are doing golf claps while rushing to the defense of 'POC' involved in them ... I've never ONCE seen you rail against crimes perpetrated against any minority or person at the opposite end of the social spectrum from where you sit stinking up the place with your BS
spinning around like a top making arguments against strawmen foes that don't exist
you're like a sad parody of Don Quixote tilting at windmills of straw
it's really pretty tedious & after seeing this shtick repeated ad nauseam also boring quite frankly. and it's not as if you haven't been told this before either ... it's as if you have a special case of Tourettes and can't help yourself. you're not 'owning' any libs balloon spokes but ...
apparently in your sad little world any attention at all will suffice
Yeah, that fake covid post should've gotten him banned but at least it wasn't offensive on its face. He has no credibility with me after eliciting empathetic responses from fellow members based on his deception. He thinks there was nothing wrong about that because he was conducting his sick experiment on fellow members. He has no respect for this place
'that fake covid post'
just part of the highlight reel of character flaws and pretty damn low
with regards,
Don't just stop at the 2nd. Make sure to check out the 5th, 6th, and 8th Amendments as well.

once "they" dehumanize someone, "they" don't have to acknowledge those pesky rights
Don't open your mouth until you know the shot.
We're a long way away from knowing the shot. In the meantime, let the process play out. It's how we're supposed to do things here.
