I REPEAT: ALL OF THIS HAPPENING BECAUSE WE HAVE TO BE POLITICALLY CORRECT IN THE COURTROOMS NOW. NO HANDCUFFS, NO SHACKELS, NO ORANGE JUMPSUIT. SO THE JURY WON'T BE PREJUDICED!!!! Well, the next jury (if this guy lives and is brought to trial) won't care if the guy is brought in naked! There will be prejudice, and it will be PC (POSITIVELY CORRECT)!
Amen to that.
I hope someone gets the idea to get people to boycott en masse showing up for jury duty until they improve security and stop the politically-correct mindset.
What's interesting is they found a shank in this guy's shoe/boot this week. What's hard to understand is why he wasn't shackled today when coming in the courtroom.
It's not "political correctness," it's the Presumption of Innocence.
If you don't like the Presumption of Innocence, then...I hope you're never mistakenly arrested.
