ZDT COFFEE CHAT LABOR DAY, 7 YEARS, 7 LAWYERS [ZeroDarkTony] / September 7, 2026 / YouTube / uH0rDNxyCZc
Streamer also states he will seek a restraining order extension in five years and names Jen De Leon and Boss as additional targets of legal action.
Anthony R. D’Amato, Jr., also known as ZeroDarkTony, devoted a September 7, 2026 YouTube livestream to analyzing Pennsylvania criminal harassment charges he stated are pending against a defendant confirmed to be Jarred Brooks, aka Krackhead Kenny. D’Amato described a sentencing range he put at 90 days to seven years, walked through Brooks’s claimed prior felony record (not verified), and named multiple existing restraining orders he said prosecutors would introduce at trial. He also stated that online supporters who continue engaging on Brooks’s behalf are compounding Brooks’s legal jeopardy.
“I’m not a lawyer.”
D’Amato told his audience that Brooks had made public statements after being served a criminal summons, including the line “nobody going to come get me,” and argued those statements would function as aggravating evidence before a judge. D’Amato said, “I think that was a very big mistake to say that nobody’s going to do anything about it.” He characterized this as tantamount to defying the court, stating it was “kind of saying to that judge, go f yourself.” D’Amato’s exaggeration of that statement is on the record. No one did “come and get” Brooks. He was instead issued a court summons for a third-degree misdemeanor.
D’Amato also said the judge would have access to Brooks’s full criminal history, which he described on stream as including a prior felony narcotics conviction. D’Amato stated that prosecutors would be able to introduce his own restraining order, an order he attributed to someone named Meena, and a prior restraining order from a Jehovah’s Witness congregation.
He added that whether the stalking factor is charged will determine the upper end of Brooks’s exposure, saying: “If they add any element of stalking, that’s when you’re talking five, seven years.” D’Amato was explicit that these were his personal opinions rather than legal advice, stating on stream, “I’m not a lawyer.” On the question of supporters amplifying Brooks’s content, D’Amato said, “the people that want to continue to stalk and harass me, they’re just absolutely making it worse for him.” He also stated he intends to seek a renewal of the restraining order at its next interval: “I’ll just show up in five years and get the RO extended.”
Exhibit A
D’Amato tells his audience that Brooks’s online supporters are worsening his legal position, saying “the people that want to continue to stalk and harass me, they’re just absolutely making it worse for him.” He also outlines the sentencing range he believes applies, from “a slap on the wrist” up to seven years depending on whether a stalking factor is added.

D’Amato frames third-party engagement with Brooks’s content as evidence that will reflect on Brooks rather than on his supporters. He closes the passage by saying Brooks “needs mental health treatment,” framing the legal jeopardy as partly a product of Brooks’s failure to disengage.
Exhibit B
D’Amato walks through what he describes as the aggravating record prosecutors will present, saying the judge “is going to know that this is a convicted felon crack dealer who sold narcotics to an undercover police officer.” He adds that post-summons conduct, specifically “several tirades,” will signal to the court that Brooks “does not care.”

D’Amato lists multiple protective orders by name across different parties, including orders attributed to himself, Meena, and a prior Jehovah’s Witness congregation complainant, stating prosecutors “are going to bring” all of them into court. He qualifies his sentencing predictions throughout with “in my opinion” and “I’m not a lawyer,” leaving his framing as lay commentary rather than legal analysis.
This publication has not verified D’Amato’s claims on his targets background.
Exhibit C
Responding to a chatter identified as Rad who raised the possibility of a court-ordered internet ban, D’Amato says the defendant’s public statement amounts to “saying to that judge, go f yourself,” and that the court has tools to respond.

D’Amato speculates that possible outcomes include anger management, community service, and a judicial injunction barring Brooks from being online.
He also characterizes critics he calls “fake journalists” as deliberately trying to provoke a reaction so they can “do the old reverse Uno card victim bullshit.” Presumably referring to this publication.
Across the three clips, D’Amato establishes on the record his stated expectation that a criminal harassment case against Brooks will proceed, his intent to seek a restraining order extension in five years, and his position that continued third-party engagement with Brooks compounds Brooks’s legal exposure.
