]]> Comment on Cameras in the Courtroom by Pappy Harmon http://www.constitutionalconversations.com/2011/05/23/cameras-in-the-courtroom/comment-page-1/#comment-182 Pappy Harmon Mon, 06 Jun 2011 15:04:11 +0000 http://www.constitutionalconversations.com/?p=525#comment-182 Michele, Great article; I really enjoyed it. You still write beautifully. I am opposed to broadcasting from the courtroom for several reasons. It could corrupt the testimony of future witnesses and can become a circus thus denying Due Process to the accused. A classic example is the Lindbergh Murder Trial. You should see the films of that fiasco. Keep up the good work. Hope to see you soon. Best regards, Pappy (L.L.B., J.D. : John Marshall University, Class of 1968) Michele,
