Newsweek has been banned from the courthouse for the remainer of the hearing for the Aurora theater shooting for violating a judge's order after the news magazine published the name of a juror, according to USA Today.

Judge Carlos Samour had laid down strict rules for the protection of jurors' confidentiality during the lengthy trial of James Holmes, who was convicted last week for slaying 24 people in a movie theater in Aurora, Colo.

Newsweek violated the judge's order following the verdict by Tweeting a link to a story about the trial, identifying the juror and stating that the juror "never took his eyes" off the defendant as the verdict was being read out by the judge. The juror's name was mentioned on the social media network as well as in the linked story.

"It is really disappointing that something like this happened," said Samour. He rejected the defense's request for a contempt citation and also declined a special investigation against the publication to determine how it obtained the juror's name, according to NBC News.

Samour issed the order to ban Newsweek from the courthouse after the foreman notified him that he received a Tweet from an unknown person with a link to a Newsweek article published last week with his name in it.

The jury has yet to make a decision on whether or not Holmes should be given the death penalty. It is the same jury that convicted him last week of 24 counts of first-degree murder and 140 other charges in the incident, which took place on July 20, 2012, as HNGN previously reported.
