Sheen wants TV cameras banned from court

A lawyer for Charlie Sheen asked a US judge not to let television cameras record a court hearing next week related to allegations that he threatened his wife with a knife.

The Aspen Times reported that attorney Richie Cummins wrote in a motion filed in Pitkin County District Court, Colorado, that the actor wants to preserve some privacy for his wife, Brooke, and to protect his right to a fair trial.
