Electric Shock Gloves in Schools | Lincoln News

Omaha Police are deploying new electric shock gloves—called GLOVES—for school resource officers, designed to deliver a pain stimulus when flipped on, forcing compliance without escalating violence. Bellevue Police, who’ve used them for four years, report a 90% success rate with zero injuries and see them as vital for controlling combative individuals safely in schools. But critics like Voices for Children in Nebraska warn these tools undermine the safe, supportive environment schools should provide. Omaha will hold a press conference today at 4 p.m. to address the controversy. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
