    A demand for removal and threat of being held in contempt seems like the appropriate response to bringing a camera in, no matter who you are.

      It does matter who they are!

      The judge said not to bring something in and they clearly ignored the judge’s directions and it is their job to comply with the judge’s directions. They are not some random person off the street.

        I dont disagree, and I think they should face punishment for what they’ve done already… But what’s supposed to happen here? Jail time specifically for bringing a camera? I dont get it.

          Yes, they should get jail time for being in contempt of court because they are professionals and should be held to a higher standard than people off the street.

          A person off the street should get a warning. Professionals should be expected to follow a judge’s orders.

              I must have forgotten that there is literally no middle ground between a verbal warning and execution.
