Graphic videos showing the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on a Utah college campus have gone viral, drawing millions of views. Attorneys for the man charged in the Sept. 10 shooting of Kirk want a state judge to block these videos from being shown during a hearing. Defense attorneys also want to remove cameras from the courtroom, arguing that biased news outlets could taint the case. Prosecutors and Kirk’s widow urged the judge to keep proceedings open, citing the need for transparency. Legal experts say media coverage in high-profile cases can bias potential jurors, affecting how they perceive evidence.
