In some countries, some criminal trials in law courts are shown on television so that the general public can watch. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

Criminal proceedings are broadcasted on

TV

for general public in certain countries. I believe that negative sides of being showed criminal trials for all people higher than its positive sides. I consider, the only advantage caused by

of criminal proceedings is that people can be aware of some provisions of law. In that way people acquire more knowledge about punishments, which in turn has led to decreasing number of crimes.

For example

, in some countries capital punishment is implemented by the government for some offenders. If people watch its proceeding on

TV

, they would be avoided to commit crime.

Nevertheless

, the disadvantages of being displayed criminal trials in judgement are far greater.

First

of all, potential criminals may plot similar crimes after watching these proceedings. They can depict other offenders’ weak points and develop new ways for escaping from punishment.

As a result

, they can carry out crime as a professional in hiding their mistakes.

Furthermore

, if children or their family members
