> For somebody who is a high escape, high assassination or generally high risk
I don't know if it still in use, but Italy had at least a bunker court for mafia trials which could withstand even missile attacks. In case of high risk targets, I feel it would be better to ensure the safety of every person inside the court, instead of enclosing just one person inside a box which could still be opened, after spilling enough blood.
To me, it seems the glass box is used only for the psychological effect and justified with the security concerns.
