Inmates offered reduced sentences for birth control procedure
A judge in the US state of Tennessee is offering to reduce jail sentences for any inmate that volunteers to undergo a birth control procedure.
Since Judge Sam Benningfield signed the legal order in May, 32 women and 38 men have volunteered in exchange for 30 days shaved off their sentence.
The order has drawn fire from the local prosecutor, and by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
Vasectomies are offered for men and hormone implants in the arm for women.
"I hope to encourage them to take personal responsibility", the White County judge told WTVF-TV, "and give them a chance, when they do get out, not to be burdened with children.
"I understand it won't be entirely successful but if you reach two or three people, maybe that's two or three kids not being born under the influence of drugs."
Anyone ever read the Witches of Chiswick? There is a bit in the book that in essence says if they can’t breed they can’t breed more criminals
Anyway I came across that news link today whilst mulling over a reply in this one http://www.collarchat.com/m_5055264/tm.htm
