Excluding the public and press from what is supposed to be a public trial means that they are probably trying to pull off something. Note it appears to be the defense and the sheriff who are trying t suppress the public knowledge of what is going on.
And the lack of press agitation suggests that they are in on it.
See, generally Richmond Newspapers v. Virginia. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/448/555/
