Enter the courts and leave them

We read in ARA that Jonathan Andic, accused of homicide against his father, Isak Andic, the founder of the Mango clothing stores, has entered the Martorell courts handcuffed and "with his head down".

¿Do you enter the courts one way if you are innocent and another if you are guilty? If you are innocent, and it seems you can prove it, perhaps you enter "with your head held high", precisely, that is the expression we use. But perhaps, due to the perplexity of being considered guilty when you are innocent, you enter "with your head down", all hope abandoned. If you are guilty and don't care to prove it, don't hide it: you enter with your head down, without making eye contact with journalists, but not too contrite. If you are guilty but pretending to be innocent, you will enter with your eyes fixed on the journalists, with a silent and exaggerated plea in your eyes.

There is a type of person, including myself, who seems guilty when they are innocent. The times I get off the plane and go through customs, I try to look natural, precisely so they don't think I'm carrying prohibited substances in my suitcase or in my gut. I can't be natural, nor do I remember how to be, so much do I suffer. And the more natural I want to seem, the more I seem overacted. But I always tell myself that if one day I were guilty, I would try to remember these moments of false naturalness to show that I am innocent but nervous that I might seem guilty.

Jonathan Andic has been released because he has one million euros that he was able to deposit as bail. I understand that he is innocent, perhaps because I am very innocent: it seems to me that no one who has a million euros could kill their father for money (and do it themselves).
