The ceiling fan in Norfolk Superior Court's Courtroom 25 has captured viewers' attention during Karen Read's murder trials by serving as a backdrop on the livestream during court recesses. Ethan Nelson, head of Court TV, explained that, due to the absence of a state seal or clock for indicating the courtroom's status, the fan was chosen as a neutral symbol for viewers. This simple logistical decision has led to unexpected humor and cultural phenomena, including memes and dedicated fan pages, as audiences engage more deeply with the trial proceedings.
