Sentence in CO death
By The Baltimore Sun
Published: 01/22/2009

MARYLAND - A Northeast Baltimore man was sentenced today to life in prison, with all but 35 years suspended, for killing a corrections officer in an armed robbery in May 2007.

Brandon Wall, 22, of the 2000 block of Hillenwood Road, had pleaded guilty to felony first-degree murder, using a handgun in a violent crime, and robbery with a deadly weapon for killing Lt. Perry Brooks, 48. There was no indication that the killing was related to Brooks' work in the Central Booking and Intake Center.

Wall asked for mercy today from Baltimore Circuit Judge John A. Howard.

"I want to say to the family that I never meant this to happen," he said. "I would trade places with him in a second. I've changed because I don't try to impress people – impress the wrong people."

Prosecutors said Wall and another man approached Brooks with the intention of robbing him at 2:30 a.m. May 25, 2007, as he sat in his 2004 Nissan Altima in the rear driveway of his home in the 1900 bock of Hillenwood Road. Read more.
