This question asks why the Nebraska Press Test's Prong Two "alternatives" to gagging journalists from reporting on public trials are called the Sheppard Mandates. It's because, in reading the Sheppard v. Maxwell (1966) case, you learned the U.S. Supreme Court Group of answer choices decided that a defendant must prove the pre-trial publicity is pervasive. decided that a prosecuting attorney carries the burden of proof to show that pre-trial publicity does NOT interfere with a defendant's fair trial. decided that a judge carries a heavy responsibility to ensure a defendant's fair trial while also ensuring the media's First Amendment right to report on the trial.. decided that Sheppard sure looked a lot like Harrison Ford
