Often on TV, you will see prisoners being brought into
courtrooms wearing leg shackles. Aside from appearing
somewhat barbaric, this can be argued to be prejudicial to
the jury, who are going to naturally associate handcuffs and
leg irons with criminals.
Instead, the defendant should be placed
into a knee high vat
of custard on wheels, and rolled into the courtroom.

And during the trial the prisoner is both in the "guilty" and the "not guilty" states, until the last day when the prisoner is lifted out of the vat to reveal the presence of leg shackles (guilty) or their absence (not guilty). |

I've read that there are some drugs that act as
"muscle relaxants", and prevent the voluntary use of
major muscles. A small dose would affect the ability
to run, but not the ability of the heart to beat --and
perhaps also not the ability to speak. A somewhat
larger dose would affect the ability to speak, and the
sphincter muscles, but still not the heartbeat. |

So, perhaps such a drug could be employed in lieu of
shackles? |

And for that, [21Q], you deserve no mercy whatsoever ... |

custardy..." (oh, and one for this delicious idea as well). |

Seems like there should be some way to embed custard in their clothing so that if the defendant moves normally it provides little resistance, but any rapid movements solidify the custard and immobilize the defendent |
