That may be valid, but leaving an over 50 year old woman alone in a locked room with a 6 foot 1 former football linebacker without his handcuffs on is simply not a good idea.
quote: On Wednesday, when Brian G. Nichols returned to jail from his rape trial, sheriff's deputies found a pair of crude weapons in his socks.
On Thursday, a judge, prosecutors and even his own lawyer sought additional security for Nichols' trial.
Still, on Friday, the former football linebacker, his handcuffs removed, ended up alone in a room with a deputy almost 20 years his senior.
Nichols, 33, overpowered the deputy, seized her handgun, and went on a shooting spree at the Fulton County Courthouse, authorities said...
Judges and lawyers have raised concerns about courthouse safety for years. Several lawyers said Friday they had long harbored worries about the practice of assigning a single armed deputy to guard a defendant in a locked holding room, because of fears that the defendant could take the officer's weapon. |
