The judge presiding over the Kyle Rittenhouse trial banned MSNBC from the courtroom today after a man claiming to be a producer for the network was accused of following jurors.
The man, who identified himself as James Morrison, was pulled over Wednesday after he allegedly blew a red light while pursuing a bus that transports jurors from the Kenosha County Courthouse, Judge Bruce Schroeder said.
“He stated that he had been instructed by [a superior] in New York to follow the jury bus,” Schroeder said.
Police confirmed that there was an “incident with a person who is alleging to be affiliated with a national media outlet” and the suspect was issued several traffic citations.
“Police suspect this person was trying to photograph jurors. This incident is being investigated much further,” police said.
