The ban signals a shift in school policing, with some districts keeping the devices.
背景
Omaha Public Schools (OPS) is Nebraska's largest district, with about 52,000 students. The controversy began when it emerged that school resource officers had used G.L.O.V.E. electric shock gloves on two students during the 2025-26 school year. Following community backlash and a board meeting, the district formally requested police stop using the devices on school grounds, and Omaha police agreed.
