ICE equipping agents with gloves that deliver electric shocks

ICE plans to spend up to $20 million on gloves capable of delivering painful electric shocks to targets. A DHS notice describes these tools as a de-escalation device for agents. However, critics argue that the equipment could encourage officers to use more force. Legal experts have raised constitutional questions regarding the implementation of these electrified gloves, which some observers have compared to fictional weaponry seen in the Legend of Korra television series due to their specific capabilities.
