Omaha’s largest school district has halted use of electric shock gloves for resource officers after community outcry and concerns over their deployment—despite police claiming they’re a low-force tool for rare situations. The superintendent cited damage to school-law enforcement partnerships and student safety as key reasons, noting the devices were only used twice last year. While police still carry tasers and other gear, critics—including students—warned the gloves could traumatize teens in schools. The move follows reports that ICE plans to adopt them, raising broader questions about their place in public safety.
