ATLANTA (May 12, 2020) – Court TV – the newly-rebooted, multi-platform network devoted to live, gavel-to-gavel coverage, in-depth legal reporting and expert analysis of the nation’s most important and compelling trials – is now available on YouTube TV.
“We’re thrilled to have Court TV added to YouTube TV at a time when consumer appetite for the real-life drama of true-crime and courtroom trials has never been greater,” commented Jonathan Katz, President and CEO of Katz Networks.
Since re-launching, Court TV has delivered legal news exclusives while also covering the nation’s most riveting trials, including:
- Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) cases of national significance and impact;
- The rape trial of Harvey Weinstein, which included an unprecedented new “instant replay” feature recreating testimony from the camera-less courtroom immediately for broadcast;
- One of the most dramatic and emotional recent trials, Texas v. Amber Guyger, in which the brother of the deceased hugged former Dallas police officer Guyger following her conviction (seen live nationwide exclusively on Court TV);
- The riveting trial of high school cheerleader Brooke Skylar Richardson facing life in prison for allegedly killing and burying her newborn daughter in Ohio;
- Florida v. Mark Sievers in which a husband was accused of hiring friends to murder his doctor wife, and others.
