Why Trump won't be handcuffed
![]()
Donald Trump's lawyer earlier said the ex-president wouldn't be handcuffed for his court appearance on Tuesday.
We've now heard confirmation of this from a law enforcement official, who tells CBS News, the BBC's US partner, the issue has been "mitigated" between the New York court authorities and the Secret Service.
As to why, they say it's because the point of handcuffing is either: to prevent someone from running; prevent attack to others; or to keep control of the subject.
In all these cases, the source says Trump will be surrounded by federal agents - with "dozens if not over a hundred" involved in the operation.
