How ya doin' Jezebelle? ;-)

I would think Durham will NOT allow any cameras, because they are afraid the entire world will see how stupid many of them are. They will not do well on TV, as many have already witnessed during the recent hearings.

Howdy, Tommy. :> Where ya' been lately?

It's hard to know at this point what is in this particular judge's mind. I don't want to sound as though I'm making excuses for his decision because I think it was a bad one in this particular case, but many judges have disallowed cameras in their courtrooms since the OJ case. It is a distraction and causes people to behave and conduct themselves unnaturally, and creates controversies and gossip among courtroom novices and onlookers - a circus that just doesn't have to be.
