It’s produced by Abrams’ Law&Crime Productions.
“Court Cam furthers our exploration of all facets of the criminal justice system with Dan Abrams,” said A&E Network EVP and head of programming Elaine Frontain Bryant. “Not only is he a trusted voice to our audience and all ‘Live PD’ viewers, but his legal expertise makes him the perfect host to provide viewers with an all access look into unbelievable moments in America’s courtrooms.”
