Brookins faces murder and attempted murder charges in connection to the shooting. He was denied bond last week on the grounds that he's simply too dangerous to be released from jail, a judge ruled.
Shots rang out near the Hookah Lounge Marrakech at 3:30 a.m. on that Saturday, where three other people were injured in addition to the Battie brothers.
Brookins' attorney alleged that he was acting in self-defense and that the two Battie brothers approached and shot at him.
Records show Brookins' next court appearance is slated for July 3 at 9 a.m.
