Supreme Court Blames News Media For Sheppard Trial Bedlam
The high court's 8 1 ruling says Dr Samuel H Sheppard did not receive a fair trial due to sensational courtroom reporting and media intrusion. It criticizes Judge Edward Blythin for giving reporters wide access and warns trial courts to curb prejudicial publicity while preserving press freedom. The decision urges judges to delay or transfer cases to prevent prejudice and to use remedial measures at the outset.
