CBC News brings you minute-by-minute proceedings from the courthouse in Belleville, Ont., where Col. Russell Williams's sentencing hearing continues. On Monday, Williams pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree murder, two sexual assaults and dozens of break-ins and attempted break-ins. The court heard detailed accounts of his crimes on Monday and Tuesday before formally accepting his guilty pleas.

We are able to provide this coverage because of a judge's order issued last week allowing smart phones and laptop computers to be used by accredited reporters in the courtroom. Note that we cannot accept comments from the public because of a court-ordered publication ban on the identity of one of the surviving sexual assault victims.
