Donald Trump’s trial in Georgia over charges of election fraud will be livestreamed and televised, a judge has ruled.
All the hearings will be available live on Fulton County Court’s YouTube channel, said Judge Scott McAfee.
A date for the trial has not yet been set, but it could be next year when Mr Trump is running for re-election.
Mr Trump and 18 people are charged with a conspiracy to overturn the state’s 2020 presidential election results.
The former Republican president, who faces three other criminal trials, has pleaded not guilty to the 13 charges he faces in Georgia.
All proceedings in Fulton County’s courts are usually livestreamed.
However, it will be the only one of Mr Trump’s four trials that will be broadcast, and could be one of the most watched trials in recent years.
Mr Trump briefly travelled to Atlanta last week to turn himself in at Fulton County Jail and have his mugshot taken. He has waived the right to appear in court next Wednesday at his arraignment, a short hearing at which the plea is officially entered in court.

Trump seeks to make the most of historic mugshot
Prosecutors allege that he pressured Georgia officials to reverse the results of the election in the state, which he lost to Democrat Joe Biden.
Central to the prosecution’s case is a phone call he made to the state’s secretary of state to “recalculate” the vote tally.
“I just want to find 11,780 votes,” he is heard saying on a recording of the call.
