Waukesha, Wisconsin - On Tuesday, Jackson Sparks, 8, became the latest victim to died from last Sunday's downtown Waukesha Christmas Holiday Parade vehicular massacre that resulted in the deaths of five adults and 48 injured participants and spectators when Darrell E. Brooks Jr., 39, drove through police barricades and drove along the parade route striking victims.

Brooks Jr. was charged with five felony counts of 1st-degree intentional homicide and an additional homicide charge is pending in the death of Sparks.

If convicted on all counts, Brooks Jr. is facing five life terms in prison without the possibility of parole. A $5,000,000 cash bail was set for Brooks Jr.

Police say that Brooks Jr. had been involved in a domestic dispute with another individual before fleeing the scene and then breaking through police barricades and striking multiple people along the parade route.

Police also say that there is no evidence of a domestic terrorist act and that Brooks Jr. acted alone.

Brooks Jr. was out on bail since November 11, 2021 on multiple felony charges that include 2nd-degree endangering safety and bail jumping and three misdemeanor counts for disorderly conduct, resisting or obstructing an officer, battery and domestic abuse enhancers on the 2nd-degree endangering safety, disorderly conduct and battery charges, according to court records.

In July 2020, Brooks Jr. was charged with two felony counts for 2nd-degree reckless endangering safety with a dangerous weapon and one felony count for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

The 6 deceased victims were identified as: 

• Virginia Sorenson, 79-year-old female 

• LeAnna Owen, 71-year-old female 

• Tamara Durand, 52-year-old female 

• Jane Kulich, 52-year-old female 

• Wilhelm Hospel, 81-year-old male

• Jackson Sparks, 8-year-old child

Multiple individuals from the alt-right White nationalist (MAGAs/Make Amerikkka Great Again/Keep Amerikkka Great) social groups that support Trump and consider themselves as Republicans began to spread false information in social media that Brooks Jr. had taken retaliation against the "Not Guilty" verdict of the alleged White supremacist vigilante Kyle Rittenhouse, 18, who murdered in cold blood two unarmed White social justice protesters and injured a third with an AR15 in Kenosha, Wisconsin who were seeking justice for Jacob Blake, 29, a Black man who was shot in the back 7 times by a White Kenosha cop who wasn't charged in the incident.

Rittenhouse became known as crying Kyle during the trial after crying several times and only shedding one tear during his testimony at a Kenosha County court whose judge seemed bias and an alleged Trump supporter for having a cellphone ring tone of a song played at Trump rallies. It also draws concern, if the jury members were allegedly Republicans or MAGAs as well that wouldn't convict one of their own.

Kenosha like Waukesha are MAGA/Republican strongholds in Wisconsin.

Waukesha is also known to have one of the most corrupt legal systems in the domestic family divorce court on Branch 9 including the County Clerk and the Waukesha County D.A. who wouldn't investigate the alleged corruption and illegal acts by a judge that was exposed by a female victim in a divorce case whose children were unjustly taken away and not allowed to see them.
