The first person Rudy Giuliani, the attorney for President Donald Trump, called up as a witness to baseless allegations of vote counting shenanigans in Philadelphia during a press conference last week is a sex offender who for years has been a perennial candidate in New Jersey.
Brooks was incarcerated in the 1990s on charges of sexual assault, lewdness and endangering the welfare of a minor for exposing himself to two girls ages 7 and 11.
Brooks has run for various offices, including U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives.
Brooks said in a phone interview late Monday morning that he didn’t think his conviction was relevant.
“He was asking about the truth. I told him the truth and the other ones told him the truth,” Brooks said. “I went to prison for three-and-a-half years. That’s what they said I was did. I was 25-years-old,”
