An Army study found that shock gloves purchased by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cause pain, compliance, and fear. The study's findings were known to ICE leaders before they signed a contract to buy the gloves.

The contract, signed in August, is worth $16.7 million and is for 6,000 pairs of shock gloves.

Further details about the contract and the study's findings are available from the source, which reported on the Army study and ICE's purchase of the shock gloves.
