Texas judge upholds press access to executions
District Judge William Taylor Jr ruled that news media may attend executions despite a Texas Department of Corrections ban. The decision, backed by the ACLU and Tony Garret, allows pool coverage by electronic media and print reporters, arguing a journalist’s duty to inform. Estelle opposed filming, warning it could turn executions into a circus. Families of inmates face potential impact as coverage expands.
