TL;DR Summary

Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the Idaho murders case, appeared in court for a hearing on whether cameras should be allowed in the courtroom. The judge expressed concerns about media coverage spinning "out of control" and emphasized that the trial is not entertainment but a tragic issue. Both the defense and prosecution requested restrictions on cameras, with the defense claiming that media coverage violated Kohberger's constitutional rights. The families of the victims, however, released a statement supporting cameras in the courtroom to lift the "veil of secrecy" from the case. No decision was made on the matter, and the hearing ended with the judge considering the arguments.
