A restraint system includes a wrist restraint system and an ankle restraint system that allow the limbs of a detainee to be restrained. The lockable wrist restraint system includes a waist belt and wrist restraints that are rotatably mounted to the waist belt. The wrist restraints can be positioned anywhere around the waist belt. The lockable ankle restraint system includes a strap and two buckles that form the strap into two loops. Each loop is used to restrain a leg of the detainee. A lockable buckle includes a housing that creates a tortuous path that traps a strap to which the buckle is mounted and prevents the strap from being adjusted or removed from the detainee.

What is claimed is: 1. A restraint system comprising: a lockable, adjustable waist strap; said waist strap including a first lockable fastener adapted to be locked to mount said waist strap to and prevent removal of said waist strap from a person, and unlocked to remove said waist strap from a person; a pair of soft wrist restraints; and a second lockable fastener operatively associated with each said wrist restraint to rotatably mount said wrist constraint to said waist strap and to allow said wrist restraint to be repositioned and relocked along said waist strap. 2. The restraint system recited by claim 1 wherein said first lockable fastener is a lockable buckle. 3. The restraint system recited by claim 1 wherein each said wrist restraint is a strap. 4. The restraint system recited by claim 1 wherein said lockable fastener is a lockable buckle. 5. The restraint system recited by claim 4 wherein each said wrist restraint is a strap. 6. A restraint system comprising: an anchor that can be mounted to the torso of a person; a first lockable fastener operatively associated with said anchor adapted to be locked to mount said anchor to and prevent removal of said anchor from a person, and unlocked to remove said anchor from a person; a pair of wrist restraints; and a second lockable fastener operatively associated with each said wrist restraint to rotatably mount said wrist constraint to said anchor, wherein each said second lockable fastener comprises: a buckle unit, each said buckle unit including a pair of buckles that are mounted to each other for rotational movement relative to each other, said buckle unit being adapted to be locked to mount said wrist restraint to and prevent removal of said wrist restraint from the wrist of a person, and unlocked to remove said wrist restraint from the wrist of a person. 7. A restraint system comprising: a waist belt that can be mounted to the torso of a person; a first lockable buckle operatively associated with said waist belt adapted to be locked to mount said waist belt to and prevent removal of said waist belt from a person, and unlocked to remove said waist belt from a person; a pair of wrist straps; and a second lockable buckle operatively associated with each said wrist strap to rotatably mount said wrist strap to said waist belt; wherein said second lockable buckle comprises: a buckle unit, each buckle unit including a pair of buckles that are mounted to each other for rotational movement relative to each other, said buckle unit being adapted to be locked to mount said wrist strap to and prevent removal of said wrist strap from the wrist of a person, and unlocked to remove said wrist strap from the wrist of a person. 8. A restraint system comprising: a waist belt; a lockable buckle operatively associated with said waist belt adapted to be locked to mount said waist belt to and prevent removal of said waist belt from the torso of a person, and unlocked to remove said waist belt from the torso of a person; a pair of wrist straps; a buckle unit operatively associated with each said wrist strap to rotatably mount said wrist strap to said waist belt, each said buckle unit including a pair of buckles that are mounted to each other for rotational movement relative to each other, said buckle unit being adapted to be locked to mount said wrist restraint to and prevent removal of said wrist restraint from the wrist of a person, and unlocked to remove said wrist restraint from the wrist of a person, each said buckle unit being capable of being unlocked to slide said buckle along said waist belt and then locked to lock said buckle to a new position on said waist belt to reposition along said waist belt a hand restrained by said wrist strap. 9. A limb restraint system comprising: a strap; and a pair of lockable buckles that are used to form said strap into a pair of limb restraints, each of said buckles being adapted to be locked to mount a said limb restraint to and prevent removal of said limb restraint from the limb of a person, and unlocked to remove said limb restraint from the limb of a person; each said buckle including: a housing that can be moved between open and closed positions, said housing being adapted to receive a strap segment when said housing is in the open position; and a lock for selectively locking said housing in the closed position and unlocking said housing to permit moving said housing from the closed position to the open position; said housing defining a tortuous path when said housing is closed; said housing confining the strap segment within said tortuous path without binding the strap segment when said housing has received the strap segment and said housing is closed and locked, said strap segment being prevented from sliding with respect to said housing when said strap segment is confined within said housing by binding areas that are defined by said housing and that bind the strap segment only when the strap segment starts to move through said tortuous path to prevent said movement of the strap segment through said tortuous path. 10. A lockable belt fastener comprising: a housing that can be moved between open and closed positions, said housing being adapted to receive a strap segment when said housing is in the open position; and a lock for selectively locking said housing in the closed position and unlocking said housing to permit moving said housing from the closed position to the open position; said housing defining a tortuous path when said housing is closed; said housing confining the strap segment within said tortuous path without binding the strap segment when said housing has received the strap segment and said housing is closed and locked, said strap segment being prevented from sliding with respect to said housing when said strap segment is confined within said housing by binding areas that are defined by said housing and that bind the strap segment only when the strap segment starts to move through said tortuous path to prevent said movement of the strap segment through said tortuous path. 11. The belt fastener recited by claim 10 wherein said binding areas are corners defined by said housing.
