MUSKOGEE, Okla. — A judge ruled Wednesday to bar media from the preliminary hearings for Jarron Pridgeon in Muskogee.
Pridgeon is accused of shooting and killing his brother and five children, as well as hurting the mother of his children on Feb. 2.
The judge determined media would not be allowed in the courtroom due to discussion involving HIPAA-protected information.
No one is expected to be allowed in the courtroom during any of the preliminary hearings.
