I'm sure this will bring about alot of dialogue among our GC legaldiva's in trainig.
As I watched the Brian Nichols saga unfold this weekend, I became intrigued with the notion that inmates are not to be handcuffed in the presence of jurors. Supposedly, this could possibly influence a jurors' view of the alleged party. Maybe if Mr. Nichols would have been shackeled, those victims would still be alive.
Is it possible for alleged felons to be humilated when they have supposedly committed crimes such as rape, murder, etc? Is it okay to have them handcuffed/shackeled only when the verdict is guilty?
Does this mean that we should not see these alleged perpetrators on the news?
Is that also a form of humiliation?
