Tune in here to this ​Monday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by discussing the first session of the Scott Brooks murder trial. Jensen shares a report from Queen City News that highlights a key detail from the session - the judge overseeing the case had to dismiss one of the jurors after he fell asleep during opening statements.

The dismissed juror had previously spoken with the judge during the selection process, saying he felt he could serve on the jury despite working a third-shift job. As for Monday’s session, it focused on surveillance video from December 2019 taken at Brooks’ Sandwich House, as well as footage from neighboring businesses surrounding the restaurant.

Later, Charlotte Bourbon Society founder Ken Bernardo joins Jensen to discuss the society’s Bourbon Hearts Charity Dinner and Auction, taking place Friday night. The event benefits the HeartBright Foundation, whose mission is to promote cardiovascular wellness through prevention, awareness, and partnerships across the Charlotte region. Veteran Brad Halling - who survived the real Black Hawk Down - and his wife, Jess, will participate in the event. The Hallings own BHAWK, a distillery based in Southern Pines. Their participation will support the society’s goal of honoring veterans during the event.
