    By "court footage" you mean footage of the trial? Ramirez was tried in California in 1988. The first thing you need to find out is whether California trials were filmed or broadcast on television in 1988.

    If they were, then probably the California court system would hold the archived footage, and you'd need to approach them to find out on what terms they release footage and licence its use. They are certainly going to want to know what you want the footage for.
