Insider Finance - Business - Online search is about to be destroyed

Hello, Insiders. I’m highlighting videos from our “Risky Business” documentary series all week. Up today: People risk their lives to make millions of bangles in India.

Bangles are a staple for women across South Asia — but making them involves standing in stifling heat, inhaling glass particles, and handling dangerous melted glass that’s the consistency of water. The nine-minute doc will change how you think about these accessories. Watch here.

One person wrote on YouTube, “We don't think about how much effort, hardship, energy and time went into making it and what the people went through to make it possible for us to have those items in our lives.” So what are some industries you didn’t realize were so risky? Let me know: insidertoday@insider.com.

They went by different names. Red Dog. CRASH. The Gun Trace Task Force. Street Crime Unit. The "Death Squad." Scorpion.

These specialized "street crime" units, like the Memphis Scorpion squad that killed Tyre Nichols, were created in police departments around the US — and share a pattern of abuse.

Specialized units have been connected to some of the highest-profile, most egregious cases of police brutality of the past 30 years, including the killings of Amadou Diallo and Eric Garner.

A new Insider investigation finds that these squads’ aggressive tactics are so notorious — and so similar — that in many cities they're known as "jump-out boys" for the way officers spill out of their cars to accost people during stops. One expert told Insider: "There are umpteen examples of this turning into a nightmare. These elite units are going off the rails.”
