Donald Trump will surrender himself to a New York City courthouse Tuesday, with new details slowly emerging about the process behind the first indicted president in US history.
According to sources, Trump will not be handcuffed, there will be no mugshot, and cameras will NOT be permitted inside the courtroom.
From Fox News:
A judge presiding over Donald Trump’s arraignment in a Manhattan courthouse Tuesday afternoon has denied a request from several media outlets to allow cameras to cover live courtroom proceedings, according to court documents.
New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan said the court would allow a “limited number” of videographers, photographers and radio journalists to be present but denied the motion to allow photos or live video during the court session.
However, five pool photographers will be allowed to take pictures for several minutes before the hearing begins.
In his ruling, Judge Merchan said he considered “all relevant factors” — which included whether the camera coverage would “interfere with the fair administration of justice… with law enforcement activity, the objections of the Defendant; and limitations related to the physical structure of the courtroom” — but ultimately denied the motion.
