Wisconsin Christmas parade murderer sentenced to six lifetimes in jail

A Wisconsin judge has sentenced a man who killed six people and injured 62 by driving through a Christmas parade last year to life in prison.

A jury convicted Darrell Brooks last month after prosecutors argued he had shown “utter disregard for human life”.

Brooks represented himself in the four-week trial, often interrupting court proceedings.

In her sentencing on Wednesday, Judge Jennifer Dorow ordered Brooks to serve six life sentences – one for each murder victim – and symbolically added another 1,067 years in jail for his other crimes.
