Liebrmann Laser Restraint Device

A compact, handheld device emitting a focused beam of crimson light. The device hums with a low, resonant frequency when activated, its glow casting angular shadows across the command deck. Jackson grips it as if it were an extension of his will, using it to target shackled prisoners with surgical precision—first on Herrick, then Leela—before the Doctor forces him to discard it. The beam leaves no visible marks but immobilizes its targets rigid.
