The Association of Puerto Rico Journalists is seeking access to recordings of court proceedings involving a woman who was killed by her former boyfriend and has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear its case against the U.S. territory’s government.

The Association of Puerto Rico Journalists on Friday, Oct. 29, 2021, petitioned the high court to hear its case against the U.S. territory's government regarding domestic violence proceedings and their recordings.
In its petition, the Association of Puerto Rico Journalists asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear its case against the U.S. territory's government. They raise two questions: whether automatic closure of all domestic violence proceedings and their recordings violates the First Amendment, and whether courts may take such action without first considering the First Amendment.
Miguel Ocasio was charged in Ruiz's killing shortly after her body was found; a couple of months later, he took his own life while in jail on a $1 million bond. “We all want answers, but in the quest for someone to answer, we cannot allow such a dire precedent,” the majority wrote. “It’s a lack of respect to the country and to journalists,” he said. “They have the right to know exactly what happened.”
