**Accused Killer of Activist Charlie Kirk Seeks to Ban Courtroom Cameras**

The man charged with murdering conservative activist Charlie Kirk is trying to keep his trial off camera. Tyler Robinson faces a first-degree murder charge. Police say he shot Kirk at a Turning Point USA political event last year. Robinson’s legal team has filed a motion to ban news cameras from all future court hearings. A judge will consider that request at a hearing this Friday. Robinson also delayed entering a formal plea of guilty or not guilty. That plea is now expected at a later date. The case has drawn intense media attention. Robinson’s lawyers argue pervasive coverage could unfairly influence the jury. Prosecutors have not yet responded to the motion. The Friday hearing will determine if the public’s view of this high-profile case will be limited.
