None that I know. Just MSM artists doing sketches of the accused.
I was holidaying in the US when the trial of Scott Peterson for the murder of his wife Lacey and unborn child was happening and my mum and I got addicted to the court TV channel within a couple of days. Wherever we went in the US we had to turn on court TV. I think it imposed onto our sightseeing too much but it was fascinating even for me as a lawyer! Though it went way slower than what you see on TV shows and there are a lot of boring bits.
I think nationwide there's only been a couple of cases shown live on tv. Lindy Chamberlain & another in WA are two that I recall. There was some talk a couple years back in Victoria about them wanting to put court live via internet but certain barristers didn't agree with it.
While on that topic, there's a trial case currently being covered live on WS. But beware folks, as alli mentioned, they are addictive!!..lol.
