Judge lays out rules for press at Heuermann hearing
Newsday photographer James Carbone and a News 12 cameraman have been let into the conference with Judge Timothy Mazzei.
Carbone, who was at the scene when the first remains were found near Gilgo Beach in 2010, has been the only photographer permitted in the courtroom since Heuermann's arrest, and was granted access under a court order from the judge mandating that Newsday provide the photographs to all other credentialed media.
His photographs have appeared in newspapers and television news programs all over the world since July 2023.
The News 12 access is new and allowed under a revised order that will allow the outlet to provide limited video of today's proceeding to media. The judge is instructing them of the rules for today.
