Via The Norman Transcript.

The trial of Kevin Underwood, accused of the gruesome murder of a young girl in Purcell took a strange twist last week in Cleveland County District Court as presiding Judge Candace Blalock accused a local TV station of hiring hackers to break into her computer and steal her e-mail.

According to reports published on Valentine’s Day by state newspapers, controversy swirled around the trial after Oklahoma City television station KWTV-9 posted a story dated Feb. 11 on their Web site. The story revealed the details of what was supposed to be a “sealed” decision by Judge Blalock, a decision that allowed certain statements to be admitted into evidence.
