MILWAUKEE (AP) — A man accused of killing six people and injuring dozens more when he allegedly drove his SUV through a Christmas parade in Waukesha says he doesn't feel safe in jail.
WITI-TV reported Wednesday that Darrell Brooks sent a letter to his mother saying that guards paid inmates to spit in his food.
Brooks, who is Black, also accused guards and inmates of using racial slurs against him and threatening him with violence.
He said he needs to find a way out before something happens to him and guards "sweep it under the rug."
A spokesman for the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department says the agency reviewed Brooks' complaints and is satisfied he's being treated appropriately.
