DAVID Brooks, 54 — the bulletproof vest manufacturer who spent $8 million on his daughter’s bat mitzvah — is still living large, even though he’s awaiting trial for pumping up his company’s stock and then dumping shares to the tune of $185 million. The hot-tempered wheeler-dealer, busted in 2007 on charges of fraud, insider trading and tax evasion, was under house arrest in his palatial One Beacon Court apartment until a year ago, having posted a $400 million bond. Then he was fitted with an electronic anklet and allowed to roam. Brooks was spotted last month dining at Primola, the pricey and celebrity-sprinkled Second Avenue Italian restaurant. A source close to the prosecutors in the Brooklyn US Attorney’s office told Page Six, “He can have legal meetings outside his home. There’s a list where he’s allowed to go.” So, he might as well put some fancy restaurants on the list.
