ICE Eyes Electric Gloves for Officers | Dover News

ICE is eyeing a $20 million contract for new electric shock gloves called G.L.O.V.E., marketed as a non-lethal tool to subdue resistant individuals — likened to a “sharp bee sting” — but civil rights groups are sounding the alarm. Critics fear unchecked use, especially on vulnerable populations, and question why such tech is needed for immigration enforcement. While manufacturers tout its utility in specific scenarios like vehicle compliance or preventing self-harm, the ACLU warns of abuse potential and lack of oversight. ICE and the maker remain silent as the notice prepares for public release — sparking heated debate over safety, ethics, and accountability.
