RALEIGH, N.C. — A man on trial for the attempted murder of his previous attorney was brought into a Wake County courtroom masked and restrained Wednesday.
Willie Forrest III is accused of punching his lawyer, who suffered a fractured skull, in a previous trial.
Forrest was restrained in a wheelchair and had to wear netting over his head because he spit at a detention guard Tuesday.
The judge ruled Forrest will have to remain in the restraints throughout his trial.
Forrest said he does not deserve it.
