The Georgia trial of Donald Trump on charges he conspired to overturn the 2020 election will be televised and streamed live, according to Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee.

McAfee issued an order Thursday stating that all court proceedings involving Trump and his 18 co-conspirators will be broadcast via a television pool. The Fulton Co. Courts’ YouTube channel will stream the trials live.

In addition, the judge ruled that reporters will be allowed to have computers and cell phones inside the courtroom, as long as they don’t record the proceedings.

Eptsein pled guilty in 2005. There wasn't much of a trial and YouTube was brand new, it did not have live streaming.

Maxwell was charged and convicted in federal court where cameras are not allowed.

The arrest where Epstein totally disabled cameras put two guards to sleep and then killed himself in a PC cell on suicide watch happened in 2019; before he was on trial for the latest information relating to his sex trafficking. He also plead guilty to a similar crime in 2005.
