Cameras in the CourtA quirky traditionalist, U.S. Supreme Court associate justice David Souter had very few possessions and called himself a Luddite. One day in 1996, he was asked when cameras would be allowed in the SCOTUS (Supreme Court) courtroom. "When," he famously replied, "they roll them over my dead body."
