New Utah law allows organ donations from prisoners; nearly 250 sign up - Vitals

OMG.......I agree with a Republican!

Instead of using drugs to execute those on death row.....just take them into surgery and remove their organs.....death of the criminal is still accomplished and untold others may now get to live.

This would all have to be voluntary on the part of the prisoner and the doctors involved, of course.

The general prison population? They should just be treated as any other organ donor.

The prisons need to come up with cash somehow, why not sell their occupants' organs...

Sure. Why not? It would be their last chance to be useful to society.

Default Should prisoners be allowed to donate their organs?

I think it should be mandatory. I have called for 'donations' before
on this forum. That would be a way to 'pay their debt to society',
especially if it's for a victims family.

They don't 'need' two lungs, kidneys, eyes. And the liver can be
used over and over.

Think of the lives it would save.
