ICE's Shock Gloves Spark Debate | Los Angeles News

ICE is set to spend up to $20 million on thousands of new shock-gloves called G.L.O.V.E.s, designed to deliver a bee-sting-like jolt to quickly gain compliance during tense encounters. Made by Compliant Technologies, the gloves are marketed as a de-escalation tool — but civil rights groups are sounding alarms over potential misuse, especially given ICE’s history of force and lack of oversight. While the manufacturer warns against using them on children or pregnant women and insists they’re for specific, controlled situations, supporters argue they could be lifesaving for officers who aren’t physically dominant — if properly trained and strictly regulated.
