The Spin

Narrative A

While this sentencing is a step forward, it's overshadowed by an alarmingly lax trial. Judge Dorow was far too lenient with Brooks, which not only emboldened him but also set a distressing precedent. With disrespect for the US judicial system only growing, trials like this need to be squashed before others can repeat his behavior.

Restoring America

Narrative B

Though Brooks tried to use claims of mental illness and disruptive tactics in court, Judge Dorow pushed through what was a harrowing case. She delivered multiple life sentences as sought by the victims — a verdict that attests to the success of the US judicial system.
