A case is beginning in the United States regarding the death of 19-year-old Louisiana State University (LSU) student and cheer team member Madison Brooks. One of the men accused of her sexual exploitation is soon to face trial.

The defense team for Desmond Carter, accused of raping LSU student Madison Brooks, has filed a motion to ban pink clothing at his trial, arguing it could intimidate the jury and compromise a fair trial.

The judge presiding over the Madison Brooks case is facing intense scrutiny after documents revealed her son is a convicted sexual predator. A suspect in the Brooks case reportedly claimed the judge was 'on our side,' raising concerns about impartiality.

The mother of slain LSU student Madison Brooks is criticizing attempts by the defense to ban spectators from wearing pink in court, stating the color honors her daughter's memory.
