Judge Bruce Schroeder announced Thursday that MSNBC reporters will no longer be allowed inside of the courtroom amid the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.

The ban comes after someone claiming to be a producer for NBC News was “taken into custody” after they were suspected of “trying to photograph jurors,” according to the Kenosha Police Department.

“The jury in this case is being transported from a different location in a bus with windows covered so that they aren’t exposed to anything on one side or the other, or interest in the case. So I’m going to call it a sealed bus. And that’s been done every day, and then they are brought here to this building,” Schroeder explained.
