Circus or Trial?

There are many things I do not understand about the legal system. I am trying to cure this by getting into law school. One such example is the circus known as Lemaricus Davidson's trial. Two college students were raped, tortured and subsequently murdered and 5 individuals have been charged. There are many things the jury is not allowed to hear because it would "taint" the jury's opinion of a known violent thug. It is a circus.
