Raddled

Raddled: A raddle might be a thin stick woven between vertical fence posts. A raddle might also be a series of posts to keep the warp properly spread on a loom. Raddle might also be a reddish dye derived from iron oxide. I imagine this final definition lends the best meaning in the context shown.
Eddie really wanted to see him raddled and spotted like the evil twin painting he was sure to have stashed in the attic.
