The Governor of Mississippi is releasing two sisters from prison , on condition one of them donates a kidney to the other one.
The two sisters, Jamie and Gladys Scott, who are black, have been serving life sentences since 1994, for a robbery which netted them $11, yes eleven dollars !
Hayley Barbour, the governor, a republican, surprise surprise, has agreed to their early release as long as Gladys donates one of her kidneys to her sister, Jamie, who is on daily dialysis, apparently costing the state $200,000 a year – no contest really !
Not sure which is worse, the original conviction or the release – anyone want to mention the word ethics or morals ?
