Criticism is mounting over a plan by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The agency intends to purchase devices for its officers. These devices are designed to deliver a painful shock.

They are meant to be used to gain compliance from individuals who are resisting. The cost of the devices is estimated to be between $10 million and $20 million. The devices have a special feature that must be activated by the officer.

For the device to work, it must come into contact with the person's skin. Further details about the plan are available from the source, including information about the devices and their intended use.
