The trial is supposed to be for determining the guilt or innocence of the suspect, not to provide a forum for the families of victims to pour out their anguish.

At the sentencing hearing, that's one thing, but during the trial? No way. Not in a fair trial, at least.

You sound like the typical dem, or are you a defense attorney. Either way, you have my sympathies......it must be hard to live without a heart......or brain cells.
