Waukesha Christmas parade suspect Darrell Brooks was charged with a sixth count of first-degree intentional homicide on Monday.

Prosecutors formally charged Brooks with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide on Nov. 23. The sixth charge was brought against Brooks after another victim, 8-year-old Jackson Sparks, died last Tuesday.

"Our sweet little boy is now under the care of Jesus," Sparks' obituary says. "Jackson loved baseball and played for the Waukesha Blazers. When not playing baseball, or slam-dunking basketballs throughout the house, Jackson enjoyed fishing, catching frogs, and playing with his brother Tucker and his dog Qi’ra."

If convicted, Brooks faces a mandatory life sentence in prison. 

Among those injured are eight children who are still in the hospital, including 11-year-old Jessalyn Torres, who is clinging to life at the Children’s Wisconsin Hospital, her mother told Fox News.

Brooks is a career criminal, with his record dating back to 1999. In 2006, he was convicted of statutory sexual seduction after having sex with a 15-year-old girl in Nevada, who became pregnant.
