Hmm...

You know...

In any other situation, if a defendent were being disorderly and uncontrollable in the court room, you'd think the judge might order them confined somewhere. Some sort of lockable room, you know until they're less, shall we say, contemptuous?

Probably not going to happen because apparently part of the defense strat is trying to aggravate the judge to where he throws him in jail or makes a mistake that could be seen as overreach etc, and give them a plausible avenue for appeal.
