<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It came after Brooks said ahead of sentencing Wednesday that he has suffered from mental illness since he was young and didn&#8217;t plan to drive into the parade route.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Brooks told Dorow in remarks that rambled past two hours that he grew up fatherless, poor and hungry in apartment buildings infested with rats and bugs.<br>He said he has dealt with mental health issues for as long as he can remember and that he was physically abused, though he didn&#8217;t say by whom. At times he took medication and did short stints in mental health facilities and life was better then, he said.<br>&#8216;People are going to, like I said, believe what they want, and that&#8217;s OK. This needs to be said: What happened on Nov. 21, 2021, was not, not, not an attack. It was not planned, plotted,&#8217; Brooks said, adding later: &#8216;This was not an intentional act. No matter how many times you say it over and over, it was not.&#8217;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He had tried to argue in court that his SUV had been recalled due to a throttle malfunction, saying he had no intention of hurting anyone and noting he sounded the vehicle&#8217;s horn as he drove through the crowd.<br>Then when District Attorney Sue Opper objected, noting a Wisconsin State Patrol vehicle inspector testified earlier in the trial that the vehicle was in good working order, including the brakes, he suggested the driver might have panicked. <br>He didn&#8217;t quite acknowledge at that point that he was the driver, but said that at night when he&#8217;s alone in his cell he often asks questions how &#8216;this&#8217; happened. <br>Still, he said, he never asked himself whether &#8216;this&#8217; was intentional, saying he knows it wasn&#8217;t. He didn&#8217;t explain what he was referring to by using the word &#8216;this.&#8217;</p>
