If she's so small that handcuffing a willing subject is beyond her capability, then she probably does not belong on the street patrolling alone. Think about it: Her only response to a violent or agitated subject would be to apply escalating force from a taser on up to a handgun or shotgun. The chances of her taking down a large, male subject on an adrenaline kick with control or disabling tactics are nil. Add to this her apparent fear of a calm, law abiding 61 year old man, and maybe she'd be better suited to dispatch or some other desk position.
