I'm interested to see the various items of clothing and other tools that facilitate the electric shocks being transferred back to the person wearing the gloves.
Ok, let's be realistic. This is a nothingburger because no US law enforcement officer will get close enough to a suspect to touch them to electrocute them. If you have to electrocute suspect, he is dangerous and you want to keep your distance. There is a reason why police is not running around with simple zapper, but they are using tasers which can shoot electrodes to a distance.
Secondly - humans has tendency to touch themselves. It is only matter of time before these gloves are going to be obsoleted because ICE officers electrocuted their balls or forehead by accident while trying to scratch it.

Of course they will. They routinely restrain and physically arrest people. Wrestling somebody to the ground is trivial with these.

That is the whole point here: they will be used when they don't have to be, but when it is convenient for the agent. The casual fully unwarranted pepper spraying in Idiocracy was a funny joke until ICE agents started doing exactly that: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tPPQRb9TAhc

Not trivial at all. When you have normal zapper you have to avoid contact with targeted person e.g. holding them with one hand and stunning them with other will electrocute you back. That's why tasers firing electrodes are so common while normal handheld zapper never caught up.
With these gloves you don't even have a reach of a handheld zapper. Suspect can touch your face while you are about to electrocute him via gloves and you will knock yourself from fight. Now imagine that suspect is on PCP so electrocuting him will have limited effect while it will have full effect on you.
You are ignoring the rest of my comment and again reasoning from an extreme situation (these are not replacements for tasers or guns). Look at that YouTube video. That is the level of 'resistance' that will lead to being electrocuted by badly trained authoritarian agents.

Tin foil pants instead of hats.

Great for throwing unarmed citizens around on the streets.
