New California law bans officers from using gloves that deliver electric shocks

Governor Newsom has signed a new California law that prohibits local, state, and federal officers from utilizing gloves capable of delivering electric shocks to individuals. This legislative ban was enacted only weeks after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, known as ICE, initiated plans to equip its officers with these specific shock gloves. The law ensures that such devices are no longer permitted for use by law enforcement agencies operating within the state of California.
