VANCOUVER -- A lawyer for an accused serial killer on Monday told a Vancouver court that international media attention, especially from U.S. tabloid shows, threatens his client's upcoming murder trial. Peter Ritchie, the lawyer for the accused, Robert Pickton, called for a media ban, with international and domestic reporters and the public barred from a preliminary hearing next month to ensure a fair trial for his client. Ritchie, who is defending Pickton, a suburban Vancouver pig farmer accused of murdering at least 16 women, said that in the age of the Internet, "a mere ban of publication does not have a chance to be effective." Legal and media representatives for the Washington Post, Associated Press, Reuters, Agence France-Presse and Seattle television stations KOMO-TV and KING-TV also attended the hearing, but most said they didn't know whether their news bureaus would obey a potential publication ban. Pickton's case already has drawn international media attention. Feared to be one of North America's most prolific mass murderers, he faces 16 counts of first-degree murder in a case connected with the disappearance of about 60 women, many of them prostitutes and drug addicts, from the streets of Vancouver over the past decade.
