The journey of a man is what creates his history, and the lesson learned
along the way is what creates his future. Mr.Alvin Brooks was born in Columbia
South Carolina. His inspirational story as a youth who rose from jail and
served his time has created a clean slate and headed on a new path through his
lessons learned. Mr. Brooks being a process cook, radio personnel and a father
has changed his life completely around. He provided hope for his family,
friends and others who needed his help and support. He was always a people
person and sincere in his mission for helping others. He could go anywhere and
put a smile on someone’s face he loved to bring people Joy and laughter by
telling Jokes that just came naturally. Back home in South Carolina he worked
as a process cook at Shoney's.
He is
always a very loving and caring natured person, I guess you can say that’s in
his DNA he was born with it despite the circumstances he has been through. No
one in this life is perfect and we all deserve a chance to recognize that. Mr.
Brooks went by the nick name of A. Bizzle Da City council in his home town
which was strictly for entertainment purposes. He hosted lots of events in his
community. One of the things he loved the most is music that he enjoys. Music
is his way of touching multiple people’s lives at once in that very moment. One
day Mr. Brooks saw himself as a person who would have his own entertainment
company. Mr. Alvin Lamond Brooks moved to Atlanta Georgia and started working
for the Diamond Crystal Company as a process cook. In 2011 he moved into the
Meadowood Commons apartment in Norcross Georgia. This path that he was on was a
living testimony that God can do all things for those that believe in him.
Although he had a rocky beginning God allowed him to strengthen his faith and
start a new leaf in this chapter of his life. Everything was going great he
just had a baby boy that he adores! His new found reason to persevere even more
on this path that he was taking. He surrounded himself around positive people
and his family. He was getting his life together when in a second all of that
was taken from him.
On
December 25, 2011 Mr. Brooks home was vandalized and broken into at his Meadowood
apartment in Norcross, Ga. He left his home to pick up his mom for Christmas
and when he returned his front door was broken into and the door was kicked in.
He called the police and reported the incident; a report was filed including
the evidence that the police documented stating “There was muddy footprints on
the door and due to the amount of dirt on the countertops and the oddly shaped
handles on the drawers, fingerprints could not be done”. Mr. Brooks told the
police upon arrival that he felt the juveniles who hangs around his apartment
complex was the ones who did this to him. The case was closed; no follow up was
done in regards to this police report and this matter.
On
December 29,2011 Mr. Brooks was picked up by the Norcross police at his Meadowood
complex pertaining to the incident on December 25th. Lamond simply tried to
identify eye witnesses who could help in finding out what may have happened on
December 25th. He had a conversation
with one of the Juveniles (for the sake of not revealing their identity I will
use the fictitious names Steve) to see if he knew anything regarding the
vandalism done to his home. Steve told him he had information pertaining to the
vandalism and robbery off Mr. Brooks home.
On December
27th Steve texted Mr.Brooks and said “this
is the number for the person” . Prior to the robbery of Mr. Brooks home, Mr.
Brooks allowed Steve into his home several times because he trusted him they
had conversations about auto repair being done to his fiancé’s car. In essence
Mr. Brooks knew Steve the juvenile that allegedly accused him of armed robbery
and denied that he knew anything about the robbery; however that’s contradictory
to the evidence that we have because we still have the text message to verify
that he did. According to the Norcross
police report (for the sake of not revealing their identity I will use the fictitious
names Matt) the 2nd accuser Matt claimed Mr. Brooks approached him and
assaulted him.
Based on
Mr.Brooks previous conviction in 1994 from south Carolina, his bond in this
case was denied twice, and he is the real victim in this case. We know this because
the DA in his case wrote a note to his attorney stating she will talk to the
judge and work something out for Mr. Brooks bond. However when Mr. Brooks took the stand and
the judge asked him if he ever got arrested before he stated “Yes, back in South
Carolina” within seconds the DA sent her assistant to pull up his records. She then now decided not to work with Mr.
Brooks lawyer. The DA offered ten years
or take it to trial where he may serve LIFE in jail if he’s found guilty,
although once again he is the real victim in this case. How could a man’s past be the primary factor
in a present case where he is the victim? Where is the Justice in that? Why
should he serve life and the juveniles that vandalized his home be set free? Much of the evidence that would help in
Mr.Brooks case is being hidden and not revealed to rule in his favor.
When Mr. Brooks home was vandalized, he had to break his lease and put all
his stuff in storage. This broke Mr.Brooks heart to know that all that he was
building and the Legacy that he was creating for his children was robbed from
him. If you went in his home before it was vandalized you would see all his
baby boys stuff around his place. At what point should his faith dwindle?
NEVER. Mr. Brooks is reminded that he was brought though for a reason, lets
help him continue to hold his head high by supporting him with love and
inspiration. Justice needs to be served a man should not be judged from his
past only because if that’s the case so many people that we put on a pedestal
today wouldn’t be where they are now. Let’s show and prove that everyone in
this lifetime is deserves that chance. Justice needs to be served where it is
due.
The Brooks
family is seeking help from the public on this matter. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. We cannot afford for another innocent man to be tied down to the
system because of his past.
