Electric Shock Gloves for Immigration Enforcement: A Recipe for Disaster? The US Department of Homeland Security has approved a plan by U. S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to purchase electric shock gloves, known as "conductive distraction and de escalation devices," at an estimated cost of between $10 million and $20 million.
The gloves are designed to deliver painful electric shocks intended to gain compliance from individuals who resist arrest or detention.
