OPS Drops Shock Gloves After Controversy | Omaha News
Description
Omaha Public Schools has pulled the plug on school resource officers carrying shock gloves after two students were reportedly targeted — sparking outrage, calls for transparency, and a swift district decision to opt out. While the mayor’s office gave the district that choice, critics like Kimara Snipes say leadership should’ve been informed sooner. Meanwhile, Omaha Police still stocked up on these devices in 2025 — just as ICE is rumored to be eyeing similar gear from the same supplier. The gloves are gone from schools, but the debate? Far from over.
