Answer 1

If they make the decision to donate an organ they could get a shorter sentence possibly. Depending upon the organ donated it could REALLY reduce the sentence. The prisoner should not have the option of who receives the organ.

Answer 2

I think prisoner making a LIVE organ donation to an immediate family member is expressing some form of rehabilitation and making a generous gesture,therefore consideration might be given to a small reduction of sentence if allowed by state law an is not in violation of Federal Law.Additionally no prisoner sentenced for a capitol crime i.e. murder or any sex offender should be given consideration.

Answer 3

Prisoners making live organ donations to immediate family members should possibly be given some consideration for a small reduction of sentence where allowed by law.

Answer 4

Absolutely not.
The conditions in the Prison system are filthy with Aids, Tuberculosis, Hepatitis not to mention other diseases.

Today the Prison System checks out the inmates at their request, but it is not mandatory and should be to segregate the living dead from good, bad, ugly and diseased.

Convicted Felons can't vote. They're second class ciitzens for life

If he or her is needed to donate a kindney to a living member of his family that remains questionable, but by means he would return back to his prison sentence.

There was a case where an inmate gave another inmate CPR when he had fell to the floor and his heart stopped.

Believe this or not that guy was in prison as a convicted Felon and got an early release. Call it as you wish. He saved an inmates life and his family pushed for the inmate to get an early release. He was paroled in 2006 and wasn't due for parole till 2008.

Answer 5

Yes. But only if I get to choose the prisoner, and the organ they donate.

Now that that is setteled, I choose ALL prisoners sentenced to life without parole, or death. They should be required to donate at least one organ when sentenced; either their heart, or their lungs, or both, because we're a republic they can choose which but they MUST choose, or I choose for them.

If they survive after the surgery (without benefit of machines to breath or pump blood for them) they can voluntarily donate any other organ. If they don't survive then the rest of their healthy organs should be harvested and used.

You should run for King, and appoint me organ donor Czar!!
