The right answer is to find him in contempt, lock him up until the trial concludes. Then we can decide what to do when the results come in.

If we can prevent accused predators from using the Internet unsupervised because of the potential for abuse, we can limit Trump's access too.

I don't see from what angle that makes sense.

Trump is a powerful man. Assuming the worse of him (which I do not), he could easily send signals for others to do something to someone while he's in jail.

Sure, and he could be held in contempt and put into solitary if he insisted on continuing to break the rules.
