Jill Monier, a reporter with Fox 13 News WHBQ-TV asking Curtis Vance a question Wednesday as he is led into the Pulaski County Courthouse.

A Memphis TV reporter was ejected from the Pulaski County Courthouse near the conclusion of the Curtis Vance capital-murder trial Wednesday after Circuit Judge Chris Piazza learned she’d been filing Internet updates in violation of his order against any broadcasting from the courtroom.

Vance, 29, was found guilty to capital murder, rape and burglary charges in an Oct. 20, 2008, attack so brutal that Pressly's mother didn't recognize her when she rushed to the anchorwoman's aid.
