Omaha Schools Drop Shock Gloves Amid Pushback | Phoenix News

Omaha’s largest school district has banned electric shock gloves—known as G.L.O.V.E.s—after community outcry, following reports that ICE plans to equip agents with the same devices. The move comes after incidents involving students, including one who tried to flee a fight and another at a special ed center who allegedly threatened staff. While Omaha police agree to stop using them in schools, a neighboring suburb still plans to carry them, creating inconsistency. The debate centers on safety vs. trust: many students fear these tools create distance and deter help-seeking, sparking a heated conversation about what truly keeps schools secure.
