As if we needed another reminder as to what sort of evil lurks in this world, someone created a GoFundMe fundraiser in an attempt to raise the $5 million bail for the man accused of murdering several people during the Waukesha Christmas parade.
Darrell Brooks was arrested after allegedly driving his vehicle through the parade, killing at least 6 people and injuring over 40.
Someone claiming to be a friend of his created the GoFundMe under the guise that Brooks himself was not only innocent, but the real victim.
“As someone who knows Darrell personally I can tell you that he would NEVER do such a thing and I know he is innocent of what he was charged with,” claimed the man who created the fundraiser.
He continued, “I am seeking to raise the bail so Darrell can be released and speak his truth to his side of the story in this tragic situation that sees another black man behind bars in a purely political and racist trial.
To there credit, GoFundMe immediately pulled the fundraiser.
The Daily Wire has details on this disturbing act of cruelty:
GoFundMe took down a fundraiser attempting to raise bail money for the Waukesha parade suspect.
On Sunday, a driver rammed his SUV through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, killing six people and injuring more than 40 — including multiple children.
The suspect, who The Daily Wire is not naming due to company policy on not publishing names and photographs of alleged mass murderers, has a lengthy criminal history that spans decades.
The New York Post has more details on the man responsible for setting up the fundraiser for this alleged mass murderer:
The fundraiser for Darrell Brooks, 33, came amid outrage that he’d even been offered bail — with prosecutors admitting he was free to plow through revelers in Waukesha after being sprung on an “inappropriately low” bond for another alleged car attack earlier this month.
But the fundraising effort insisted Brooks was a victim of a “racist” justice system — using hashtags including #RacismIsReal and #BLM, according to screenshots first shared by Law Enforcement Today.
It was set up by someone under the name James Norton, who called the convicted pedophile and accused mass killer “our dear friend.”
“As someone who knows Darrell personally I can tell you that he would NEVER do such a thing and I know he is innocent of what he was charged with,” the fundraiser claimed of Brooks, whose rap sheet stretches over decades.
“I am seeking to raise the bail so Darrell can be released and speak his truth to his side of the story in this tragic situation that sees another black man behind bars in a purely political and racist trial,” it stated.
