No Cameras Allowed For Trial

A judge has ruled that cameras will be barred from the upcoming trial of the man charged with killing Michael Jordan’s father.

Superior Court Judge Gregory Weeks made the decision Thursday during the second week of pretrial proceedings for Daniel Andre Green.

Cameras have been excluded from the courtroom during this round of pretrial proceedings for Green, charged by police with murder in the death of James Jordan in 1993.

The elder Jordan’s body was found in a South Carolina swamp in August 1993.

Prosecutors contend Jordan was robbed and murdered as he slept in his red Lexus along a Robeson County highway nearly three weeks earlier.

Green, 20, is charged with first-degree murder and robbery.

Green, who has legally changed his name to Lord D As-saddiq Al-amin alaam U’allah, has pleaded innocent. A co-defendant, Larry Martin Demery, pleaded guilty in April and agreed to testify against Green.

The trial is expected to begin in November.
