Attorney rep. media 1st to speak. With gag order motion already withdrawn, he now intervenes on motion to conceal discovery. @FCN2go
Barton was 1st to enter courtroom, shackled, in orange jumpsuit. Ebron followed. Sitting at different tables with respective attys. @FCN2go
Atty. for Ebron expresses concern over evidence being protected from media. Says he doesn't know if redactions have been made yet @FCN2go
State says there's "box loads of material". Still requires "listening, reviewing and redaction". Most has not been released to media @FCN2go
State says Ebron interviewed with media 3 times, deliberately making case public. Says that contradicts their motion for a protective order
State: "The public has a right to a public courtroom."
Atty. rep. media in jax.: "There is no evidence of any prejudice here." @FCN2go
