Kinks in the Garden State are going to have to find a new “level of restraint”.
Any person who knowingly has in his possession handcuffs [defined as “a device, conventionally used for law enforcement purposes, that can be tightened and locked about the wrists for the purpose of restraining a person’s movement”] under circumstances not manifestly appropriate for such lawful uses as handcuffs may have, is guilty of a disorderly persons offense.
From the New Jersey Code, §§ 2C-39.3(k), 2C-39.9.2:
That leaves only fur lined zip ties, I guess.
This makes me wonder if the trick handcuffs with the escape release would fall under the law.
When they outlaw handcuffs, only criminals will have handcuffs…?
Ridiculous… haven’t they got something useful to do?
Voluntary usage between consenting adults could be a lawful use…
