LaShae Sharp-Collins on Immigration Policy

Response to this claim

Assemblymember LaShae Sharp-Collins said the gloves are largely untested in real-world encounters, that a man died after being repeatedly shocked with them while in custody, and that public safety technology must be proven safe before it is deployed.

“And finally, the largest planned purchase of these gloves is by ICE, which was announced, and that plans is actually to purchase $20 million worth of these gloves. This news and dangerous tool, but also just the fact that it is a new and dangerous tool, will be in the hands of our least trained and most lawless law enforcement. That is one of my biggest concerns, and that's also everyone's concern.”
