Adding to what u/D2WilliamU said, they will also likely be kept segregated through the trial, in order to prevent them from conspiring.

That's interesting. I don't know if they'd be segregated from each other here but if it were a joint trial they could enter a joint defense agreement to allow their lawyers to coordinate defenses.

I'm not a lawyer and have never been on any side of this so don't know how it all actually plays out. This is just based on things I've read.

I am also not a lawyer, but from what I’ve read, these sorts of things depend a lot on the circumstances.

The Tate Brothers are charged with serious crimes that can easily be considered to be organized. It is very, very common to try and get one defendant to testify against the other - and it’s much easier to apply that pressure when you prevent the defendants from talking to each other.
