Oklahoma lawmaker wants death row organ donations

“A state lawmaker says he wants to give Oklahoma’s death row inmates a chance at redemption by donating their organs before their execution.  Democratic state Rep. Rep. Joe Dorman of Rush Springs said Wednesday that he’s developing legislation that would give a person who’s been convicted of taking a life an opportunity to give someone else a chance to live a longer life.  Dorman says the program would be voluntary and no inmate would be forced to give up an organ. But Ryan Holmes, assistant director of health care ethics at Santa Clara University in California, says the idea raises ethical concerns and would be ‘very problematic’ for surgeons.”
