Courtroom Voyeuring

If you are fascinated by real life courtroom drama and don't get enough already from Court TV, Judge James Kembler of the Medina, Ohio, County Court of Common Pleas wants you to know what's going on in his courtroom. In fact, you can watch recent cases tried in Judge Kembler's court online! You can also subscribe to receive email updates from Judge Kembler. Before you do, you might want to see what you'd be getting, but unfortunately the archive of messages for that list doesn't seem to be working at the moment. I like the idea of making the machinery of justice more accessible to the public, but are there any potential drawbacks to making video of cases accessible worldwide? [Note: I first heard about this story on NPR sometime last week.]
