Body armor. Rubber bullets. Pepper spray. This guide breaks down some of the less-lethal items a police officer may reach for when responding to a demonstration.
A CED is a battery-operated, handheld device that sends pulses of electric current through a person’s body via two small darts, almost like jumping a car. The dominant brand of CED is Taser.
The result is neuromuscular incapacitation - where the muscles contract uncontrollably, preventing the person from moving purposefully. This effect is also called"muscle tetanization." “…our research showed that it [CEDs] was used too often and I think that’s a training and a supervision and an accountability issue.”How are police trained to use it?
The more distance between where the two darts land on the body, the more nerve fibers are affected. 12 inches is optimal. Less than 4 inches typically creates a pain effect only. “It’s a totally unregulated field, and there is no oversight,” says Mesloh, the professor at Northern Michigan University. “All of the [product] information will be driven by the manufacturer, and the big ones may offer instructor training courses on things like less lethal munitions and diversionary devices. So what may happen is you go to a four or five-day school, you come back and you teach your entire department.
