Maryland’s court system is considering allowing cameras in criminal trials following impassioned testimony from journalists who argued the public’s right to know and from trial lawyers’ and victims advocates who urged the court to protect the privacy of those appearing before the courts. The court held a hearing on the issue after the legislature considered but did not act on several cameras in court bills. (11/6/07)
