So why did you remark about how he was handcuffed?

So if he was nonthreatening enough to cuff in the front (due to age, the situation had calmed enough to avoid a struggle, or because he has a cane), why is he being arrested? LOL.

Because I was talking about how he was handcuffed.

So the officer should have recognized that if he could be front cuffed he didn't previously break the law?

Someone may have already brought it up but, in the police report he WAS originally handcuffed in the front. He let them know that he needed a cane and could not manage that way and the officer asked for another officer to rearrange the cuffs so he would be more comfortable.

It was in response to something I had posted. Usually I would give the responding police officers the benefit of the doubt but when I saw the front cuff on the news a red flag went up.
