Update (February 21):
A Faulkner County jury has found Ronald Britton guilty of capital murder and he has been sentenced to life without parole, according to Prosecutor Cody Hiland.
 Original story (February 20):
Just one day after being removed from the courtroom following an outburst, murder defendant Ronald Britton could only return to the courtroom in shackles on Wednesday.

According to thecabin.net, Britton was taken down by four bailiffs after standing up, approaching the jury and refusing to sit back down.

The article states that Britton became enraged while his former cellmate was on the stand, testifying that Britton told him details of the murder.

Britton was initially not to be allowed back in the courtroom after Wednesday morning's outburst, but sources inside the courtroom say he was brought back in shackles after recess.
