Quite a bit of evidence is heard at committal hearings but nowhere near all of it. The rest is saved for the trial if there is one as the hearing basically decides if there is enough evidence to take the case to trial.
An example of our committal hearings & the type of evidence/documents that are released is over in Allison Baden Clay threads.
Over the years there's only been a couple of cases which were streamed live, one very high profile, Lindy Chamberlain. There are moves in some states to have it allowed. From memory, I think it was Gittany case, there was a request for the sentence to be live streamed but it was subsequently knocked back by the judge.
