Politicians, advocates and legal eagles on Sunday called for the Big Apple to permit live video inside the courtroom when former President Donald Trump faces a judge in the coming days.
Assembling at Foley Square in the shadow of Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse, Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal, Assembly Member David Weprin and others charged that it is in the public’s best interest to be able to watch the first former president during the trial process.
With that in mind, those in attendance Sunday said they’re pushing to amend the judiciary law that prevents audio-visual coverage of trial proceedings through new legislation,, which would repeal these “outdated” restrictions, and with appropriate discretion afforded to judges in sensitive cases. Senator Holyman stressed that if S160 is passed, the media would be able to bring microphones and cameras in New York courtrooms — a right he believes will help inform the public not only on trials like Trump’s, but on the country’s legal system as a whole.
