Heading: gillie's appearance in jail clothes and shackles to jury

Text: Gillie asserts that he was prejudiced by appearing in jail clothes and shackles in the presence of the jury. In response to Gillie's objection at trial, the trial court voir dired the jury members in order to determine if any of them had seen Gillie in shackles. Only one juror stated that she thought that she had seen Gillie wearing one handcuff. However, she further stated that there was nothing about the possibility that Gillie had on one handcuff that would prejudice her against him. Again, Gillie has failed to show any prejudice from this alleged error. See Hill v. State, 285 Ark. 77, 685 S.W.2d 495 (1985).
