Trump’s legal team files motion to ban cameras in the courtroom

Trump’s lawyers filed a motion to prohibit the live broadcast of his trial, arguing that it would violate his right to a fair trial and prejudice potential jurors.

The motion also claimed that the media coverage of the case has been biased and hostile to Trump and that allowing cameras in the courtroom would create a “circus atmosphere”.

The prosecution opposed the motion, saying that the public has a right to see the proceedings and that there is no evidence that cameras would affect the trial’s outcome.
