Brooks is on trial for allegedly driving his SUV through the parade crowd last November killing six. The judge denied Brooks’ request to adjourn.
For the third day in a row, Brooks, who is representing himself was removed from the courtroom.
Last week the judge decided to allow Brooks to represent himself at trial, finding that he suffers from a personality disorder and faces an uphill fight against an experienced prosecutorial team but is mentally competent.
