Children in Handcuffs...and Shackles

This story bothers me. It shouldn't be true. But it is.But I think what bothers me more is the amount of people on the web that think this is a joke, an April Fool's Day prank. It just couldn't be true. People, we couldn't make this stuff up!!I guess none of those people read this story in the Orlando Sentinel. If we shackle them in court, I don't understand why handcuffing them when they are arrested it such a shock to people.Or maybe I've just become jaded.
