This process has been in place forever. The defendant in ALL cases must be dressed in a suit or other appropriate CONSERVATIVE attire.

No T shirts, cutoffs, or other street type clothing.

Really...I guess that if Nichols had been out on bond-obviously the "threat" wasn't there. Had it been though, he would have been treated the same way? I had forgotten the fact that he had been out on bond? What sense would it make to shackle him in the court when he had just been out in public? As far as court goes, in trials of "accused" potentially violent offenders, what is the protection to the court?
