David Brooks -- (murderer)
David Brooks (born 1955) was the first of two known teenage accomplices of serial killer Dean Corll. Brooks was born in Beaumont, Texas.
His parents divorced when he was five. Afterwards, his time was divided between his father's home in Houston and that of his mother in Beaumont. In elementary school, Brooks was noted as an excellent student, but in junior high school his performance plummeted. In 1970, Brooks met Corll.
It was only later on during the initial investigation of Corrl's death that Brooks would shed light on to Corrl's life.
Brooks, although not a serial killer, admitted to killing one boy and was initially sentenced to ninety-nine years in prison. Since then, he has been denied parole.
Although Brooks was regarded as a small accomplice who would somehow help lure boys for Corrl's sexual advances, he was the one who introduced Corll to the boy that would not only kill many boys, but take Corrl's life, Elmer Wayne Henley. In addition to this, Brooks helped the police officers identify many of the twenty-seven victims. Brooks, although an accomplice, was the one who led officers to believe
Elmer Wayne Henley was not just an innocent boy who had killed Corll out of self-defense; it was Brook's confessions that not only put the finishing touches on the already hard case but led police to their prime suspect. In addition to this, Brooks confessed out of his own accord, which eventually led the jury to sentence him to the ninety-nine years as opposed to the six consecutive ninety-nine year terms Elmer Wayne Henley had received.
To this day he and Wayne remain in prison with little or no chance of parole.
