Former President Donald Trump's Georgia racketeering trial is slated to be televised to millions of people worldwide — but whether that actually happens could be contingent on co-defendant Marks Meadows's bid to move his case to a much less media-friendly federal courthouse.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, who is overseeing the sprawling indictment against Trump and 18 other defendants, said this week he would make all hearings and possible trials available for broadcast on the Fulton County Court YouTube channel. In the backdrop, Trump's former chief of staff, Meadows, has been pushing to remove his case to the federal court based in Atlanta, which bans the use of cellphones, laptops, and cameras for reporters.
Jones said he would try to act"as fast as possible" when considering Meadows's motion, adding that his decision over the former chief of staff's request could set precedent for future cases, according to Lawfare. The judge's forthcoming decision over Meadows's removal may signal whether the public will get to watch the former chief of staff live on television or by an online livestream in state court, though Holloway said the ruling is subject to appeal by either losing party, delaying certainty over a televised trial.
In his New York case of alleged falsified business records, Judge Juan Merchan made the decision to allow five still photographers to capture images of Trump flanked by his attorneys inside the courtroom before his arraignment. A 48-minute deposition of Trump used in his civil defamation trial against E. Jean Carroll was also released earlier this year and displayed during that trial in March.
