ICE’s Shock Gloves Spark Controversy | Sydney News

from Sydney News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

ICE is rolling out electric shock gloves—called G.L.O.V.E.s—designed to de-escalate tense situations by delivering controlled pain, but the $20 million investment has sparked outrage. Critics warn of abuse, especially against vulnerable populations like the elderly and disabled, whom the manufacturer explicitly advises against targeting. A 2024 death linked to multiple shocks and a taser raises red flags about misuse, even within guidelines. New York’s AG vows legal consequences for officers who deploy them unlawfully, underscoring mounting scrutiny over this controversial new tool of enforcement.
