Why were only the closing arguments allowed to be streamed?

I wish I knew. We've followed other TX trials before that have been streamed. Maybe the judge thought it was too high profile??
I recall a certain prosecutor KS named for misconduct which I don’t recall what the allegations were (so long ago) however very disappointed because I used to be a big fan of this person. moo

I've read quite a bit about this case. I have such mixed feelings about it. I'm praying for justice but also praying for this young man. MOO
Family members, including AJ Armstrong's wife, mother-in-law and grandmother, attended a news conference with attorney Randall Kallinen about his federal lawsuit.

Ok reading that I understand why they filed it.Family members, including AJ Armstrong's wife, mother-in-law and grandmother, attended a news conference with attorney Randall Kallinen about his federal lawsuit.
'All of a sudden, oops': AJ Armstrong attorney in federal lawsuit suggests blood evidence in criminal trial was planted
The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday, the day the jury started deliberating in Armstrong Jr.'s third capital murder trial for the 2016 shooting deaths of his parents.
The lawsuit could not be filed until all testimony was presented in court. Defense is relying on the testimony just last week and defense needed that testimony given by the Officers. The Officers said they did not see any blood on AJ. So defense couldn’t file lawsuit any sooner than after that evidence was presented, which he thought was around (last) Thurs. Defense could have filed on Thursday, but waited until the jurors were sequestered.
I’ve changed my mind to not guilty. Even though the phone and alarm evidence is damning evidence - the blood spatter expert’s testimony adds a beyond reasonable doubt factor. I certainly would not want to be on the jury for this case. In addition, they have much work to do. I'm aware of what they are not aware of since sequestered. My thoughts are with the jurors too. moo

HOUSTON — More than seven years after Antonio Sr. and Dawn Armstrong were shot to death in their Bellaire-area home, their youngest son, Antonio "AJ" Armstrong Jr., is waiting to learn his fate in his third capital murder trial.
Jurors began deliberating around 1:45 p.m. Tuesday. At one point, they sent a note to the judge asking to review some evidence. Just after 7 p.m., the jurors were dismissed for the day. They're expected to return Wednesday morning at 9:30. [...]
Both earlier trials ended in mistrials because jurors couldn’t agree on a verdict. In one case, it was eight to four in favor of guilty. In the other case, it was eight to four in favor of not guilty.
