accused is the keyword here. If Convicted was the word used, I agree... Some day I may be accused of something wrongly and would take much offense to your mindset...
So then the "accused" should not undergo body cavity checks in your world?
I will give you the benifit of the doubt that you typed this before you fully thought out what it is you are saying.
If man is being brought into the court house in a prison uniform and is handcuffed and is guarded by armed guards, the presumption is already there that he is potentially dangerous. How is taking away this clock of privacy (except for attorney client privilage) is any worse then the previous mentioned conditions?
The assumption of innocent until proven guilty is one thing, this has to do with any punishment the state may apply to an individual.
The presumption someone is harmless is another thing, especially when the facts indicate the prisoner isn't harmless.
Maintaining security and control of a prisoner is not "punishment" for a crime.
"Some day I may be accused of something wrongly and would take much offense to your mindset..."
Not me...accused is sufficient in my book.
