Nolte: ICE to Receive Gloves that Deliver Electric Shock to De-Escalate Confrontations

Immigration and Customs Enforcement plans to equip agents with electric shock gloves worth $20 million to subdue protesters and suspected undocumented immigrants during mass deportation campaigns. These devices deliver painful jolts to de-escalate confrontations. However, the initiative faces significant backlash from Democratic officials, civil rights advocates, and former DHS officials. Critics describe the equipment as unnecessary and cruel, warning that the deployment of such devices poses numerous risks and carries a high potential for abuse.
