We’re back reporting on the trial
Good morning, everyone. I’m a senior producer operating from Toronto, and I’ll be overseeing our live updates today.
Our team has returned to the Superior Court in London, Ont., to report on this day’s events.
It might be a challenging morning for frequent updates.
Justice Maria Carroccia and the lawyers are currently addressing a procedural issue without the jury present, which means we cannot disclose the details of these discussions.
We commit to bringing you the latest news as soon as we are permitted.
Okay, here’s an editorial-style paragraph you could add:
It’s worth reflecting, as our reporting team noted with their update on procedural matters being discussed without the jury present, that these behind-the-scenes moments are a crucial, if often unseen, part of the justice system. While the public and, importantly, the jury are shielded from these legal arguments to ensure fairness and avoid prejudice, these deliberations are where the very framework for how evidence will be presented and considered is painstakingly built. It underscores the careful, methodical nature of due process, even when it means a temporary pause in the information flow for those following along.
