In some parts of the world,
public
Suggestion
the public
 is provided with the opportunity to watch criminal trials on

. I believe,
although
 there are advantages, making trials open to people can lead to too much injustice and other problems.
To begin
 with, the main advantage of

Suggestion
the above benefits
, I believe that showing trials on
TV
 has more drawbacks.

Furthermore
, the jury might not be able to clearly weigh the facts and decide the future of the offender in
such
 situation which may cause public to protest against the
court
.
Accept space
.
 Another obvious issue is the coverage that the criminals get which can turn them into
TV
 stars and
this
 can negatively influence young people, as youngsters are in the habit of imitating what they watch. To conclude
,
Accept space
,
 despite the advantages, the drawbacks of an open television trial could be a negative trend, as public and media pressure might result in a lack of justice, that's why I feel that
telecasting
Suggestion
the telecasting court procedure
