Santa Clara County sheriff's deputies may soon be re-armed with Tasers from a controversial vendor after a decades-long hiatus.
sheriff's deputies may soon be re-armed with Tasers from a controversial vendor after a decades-long hiatus.
Maelin Aquino, a community organizer at Asian Law Alliance, and other justice and public safety accountability advocates oppose arming deputies with Tasers. She said using Tasers doesn't take prior health conditions or comorbidities into consideration. For the first time in nearly a month, teachers and students spoke directly to leaders at the East Side Union High School District about why they don't feel safe at school.
Jonsen said he previously felt the value of Tasers was "questionable" due to their limited effectiveness. But he said the new model he plans to implement is more accurate and can be used up to 45 feet away, compared to older models limited to a 15- to 25-foot range.
