#OJENROEJFA22 Filming with our website behind you is attempting to influence the judges, but it's cool bc it's working

If court attendees in the gallery are not permitted to record or take pictures of proceedings, why then, should live court broadcasting be permitted? Doesn't this support the idea that citizens have a say in the prejudice that is captured on camera? #OJENROEJFA22 @OJEN_ROEJ

Section 11(d) guarantees the right of any person charged with an offense to be presumed innocent until proven guilty. Despite being proven innocent in court live broadcasting contributes to society being biased toward the individual tarnishing their image.#OJENROEJFA22 @OJEN_ROEJ

The Youth Criminal Justice Act protects the privacy of young people who are accused or found guilty of a crime by maintaining the secrecy of their identity and other personal information. Exactly, how do live broadcasting trials align with this act, then? #OJENROEJFA22 @OJEN_ROEJ

Would you rather have all confidential information protected within the solicitor-client privilege be publicized live, or deal with private matters without any influence and bias on the final outcome? What would be the more ethical and moral decision? #OJENROEJFA22 @OJEN_ROEJ

One viewpoint that is not mentioned is the impact cameras can have on legal proceedings. Witnesses may commit perjury as, despite being innocent they might crumble under pressure knowing that friends, family and the media are watching. @OJEN_ROEJ #OJENROEJFA22

Victims can end up facing psychological torture due to living broadcast as the public could wrongfully accuse them of their biases which could impact their mental health. Therefore the security of victims & witnesses can be compromised #OJENROEJFA22 @OJEN_ROEJ

Under the Canadian Victim Bill of Rights, the Right to Protection insures that victims have their security and privacy considered at all stages of criminal justice. This would be violated if cameras were present and the case was being live broadcasted. @OJEN_ROEJ #OJENROEJF22

Hey, take a look at this! 👀 #OJENROEJFA22 @OJEN_ROEJ

Every case must be determined purely on the evidence given to the prosecutor without any external influences, which is a primal element of our legal system. If media coverage of a court case poses a threat to the fairness of a trial, justice has not been served. #OJENROEJFA22
