Abstract

An electrical restraint device which, while compact and convenient for guards to install on often resistive prisoners, can accommodate a spacing of the opposed circuit contacts through a specific critical portion of the human body, so an adequately brief shock from the circuit can temporarily arrest function in the involved portions of the coordinated human muscular skeletal system and, thereby compromise the shocked individual's ambulation with the individual experiencing pain for only an extremely brief period and without causing deep burns to any significant area of his/her body. Shocking current discharged from the circuit, completes a minimal path between the prisoner's legs through a significant area of his/her legs and torso. Preferably, one contact is located at the right leg where the biceps muscle terminates into the knee and the opposing contact is located at the left leg where the biceps muscle terminates into the knee. The shocking discharges complete through a minimal path of at least two feet along the plane of function of the biceps through both biceps and the torso. During the discharge, both biceps muscles temporarily shorten, and as the prisoner attempts to step forward, both knee joints rigidly fixate with the legs in a flexed position and the prisoner collapses.
