DELPHI — Attorneys for the man accused of killing two Delphi teens are asking a judge to allow cameras in court for all future proceedings — including his murder trial.
In the motion, Allen's lawyers Bradley Rozzi and Andrew Baldwin argue that allowing cameras will ensure fairness, reduce the risk of unpredictable witness behavior and boost the public's trust in the judicial system. "We have 2.8 million cases pending in Indiana courts right now and those cases involve every facet of Hoosier life," Rush told WRTV in a story published in April."For people to trust the courts, I think they need to know what's going on in the courtrooms."
If Special Judge Frances Gull agrees with Allen and allows cameras, his could be one of the first trials in Indiana to be viewed by millions worldwide under the new rule.Delphi Murders: Richard M.
