CVT is mentioned in this article about ICE’s use of a full-body restraint known as The WRAP in deportations. This device is intended for short-term use only but has been used by ICE on detainees for extended periods of time, putting them at risk of “breathing problems, nerve injury, and trauma.” CVT is mentioned together with Physicians for Human Rights as calling on ICE to stop using The WRAP during deportation transportation. Author Oliver Mercer writes, “The debate over The WRAP is framed as a broader test of values: how to balance necessary control with humane treatment.”
