    TBH probably to hinder escape if the crowd were to riot. They also kept the cuffs on his feet.

      They’d probably just dome him immediately if that happened anyway. The cuffs are just for show.

        They’ve had plenty of chances to simply dome him,I’m not surprised you murder cultists can’t think of any conclusions other than clubbing things over the head unga bunga

        Yeah, to show their rich masters how much more seriously they take it when it’s one of them on the receiving end for once.

      Yeah, because the 4 cops standing right behind him staring holes in the back of his head the whole time wouldn’t be able to stop that 🙄

      Don’t make excuses for this kangaroo court demonstrating how much more they value rich people than any other victims.

        How was that an excuse? They tried to derive a possible reasning. Murderers often get cuffed and noone cares when theyre not goodlooking robin hoods. Noone is questioning the hipocrisy of the court and police but answering it with just as much hipocrisy doesnt help.

          Yeah, they’re NOT doing anywhere near this level of security for any first time offender who’s only killed one person who ISN’T a CEO of a parasitic corporation.

          Don’t pretend that this amount of melodramatic posturing is the norm even in a “justice” system as corrupt as the US one.

              They wouldn’t stop said COMPLETELY hypothetical rioters from picking him up and carrying him away.

              Just stop. You’re defending real oppression by imagining unlikely scenarios where it MIGHT be justified. That’s how you get a police state.
