Brooks Monologue

On Saturday 09/03/16 at 0324 hours I was dispatched to an assault which occurred
at 2802 L ST SE in the City of Auburn, King Co, WA. Dispatch advised the
reporting person, Judas Leandro, stated he was assaulted by his wife, Jonnie
Leandro's, boyfriend and was declining aid.

I contacted Judas at the above address. Upon initial contact I could not see any visible injuries on Judas, but I asked him if he needed aid, and he stated not. I asked Judas if he was injured, and he said his left cheek was a little sore.

Judas explained that he and as wife are going through a separation, and she is now dating a male named Duce Brooks. It should be noted, Judas did not know if Duce Brooks was actually the boyfriend's real name, and he did not know any

more information about his name.

Judas said this morning, sometime before 0300 hours Jonnie sent him a text
message telling him she was bringing their daughters to the residence.

Judas
said he replied to Jonnie telling her that was okay, and to bring them over.
Judas said Jonnie then told him she also wanted to pick up their truck that is
in both his and Jonnie's name. Judas said he told Jonnie his nephew, Marco
Nicholson, had the vehicle at work, and Jonnie became upset and said she wanted
the vehicle back.

Judas said he called Marco, and Marco arrived at about 0310 hours with truck. Judas said Marco walked in the door and shortly after, Jonnie and Duce became walking in the door, but when they say Judas, they backed out, closed the door, and waited on the front porch. Judas said he opened the door, and observed Jonnie, Duce, and an unknown male standing on his front porch. Judas said Jonnie told him to give her the keys to their truck, but he refused and said he and Marco need it. Judas said he and Jonnie went back and forth for a bit about the truck, but Duce stepped between him and Jonnie and demanded the keys.

Judas said Duce put a foot in the threshold of the door while he was
speaking to him. Judas said he told Duce this was between he and Jonnie, and
Duce told him it was now between the two of them and again told him to give the

keys.

Judas said Duce took a step toward him into the door way, so he told Duce and
Jonnie they needed to leave.

Judas said Duce suddenly punched the left side of
his face with a closed fist. Judas said he told Marco to call the Police, and
Jonnie and Duce, and the unknown third male ran to Jonnie's vehicle, a grey
Chevy HHR (unknown plate), and left in the vehicle toward the Muckleshoot
Casino.

Judas then told me there was an altercation in on Friday, 08/02/16, at Walmart in Auburn. Judas stated he was at Walmart and saw Jonnie there with his daughters, so he walked to them and said hi. Judas said Duce was there, and Duce 'got in his face' and told him he was being disrespectful. Judas said Duce caused a large seen and was trying to provoke Judas go out to the parking lot and fight him. Judas said there was nothing physical at that time.

I asked Judas if he wanted to pursue charges against Duce for assault, and he said he did want to press charges.

I took photos of Judas and obtained a video statement from him using my department cell

phone.

Marco was also in the residence while I was contacting Judas, and stated he had seen Duce assault Judas. Marco stated the same story as Judas as far as Judas and Duce arguing about the truck. Marco said while they were arguing he pulled out his cell phone with the intention to record what was happened. Marco said Duce saw this and asked him if he was going to call the Police. Marco said he told Duce if he didn't leave, he would call the Police. Marco said Duce then Punched the left said of Judas's face with a closed right fist. Marco said Judas told him to call 911, so he did, and Jonnie, Duce, and the unknown male ran away.

I obtained a video statement from Marco using my department cell phone.

Both Judas and Marco said the unknown male never did or said anything.

Judas described Duce as a Hispanic male, about 6'1", medium build,
bald head, goatee (brown), tattoo on the lower left side of neck, and wearing a red shirt.

Judas then showed me a photo of Duce with Jonnie. I observed in the picture that Duce was as Judas described him, and observed he had brown eyes. Judas emailed the picture of Duce to my department e-mail.

Judas stated he believed Jonnie and Duce lived at 3621 Juniper CT SE in Auburn, and also provided me with a phone number for Jonnie (253-569-7373).

Officer D. Morse and I drove to the above address in attempt to contact Duce and/or Jonnie, but there was no answer at the door. I also observed the Chevy HHR Judas had described was not at the residence.

I called the phone number for Jonnie twice, but there was no answer. I left a voicemail for Jonnie to contact the Police.

I re-contacted Judas by phone and told him to attempt to obtain more information about Duce in order to file charges against him. Judas stated he would contact the Police if he found any information.

I searched for Duce through in local data base, but did not find anything.

I copied all the photographs and the statements to the V:drive.

At this time this case will be inactive pending additional information about Duce.
