A judge in central Tennessee is hoping to help repeat offenders “make something of themselves” by offering them a highly original and probably unconstitutional deal: reduced jail time in exchange for sterilization operations.

Under a standing order issued by General Sessions Judge Sam Benningfield, inmates in White County, Tenn., can receive 30 days credit toward their jail time if they volunteer for vasectomies or contraceptive implants, as NewsChannel 5 reported Thursday.
The order came down quietly in May, and already dozens of inmates have sought to take advantage of it. Thirty-two women have received implants of the hormone device Nexplanon, and 38 men have signed up to receive vasectomies, according to NewsChannel 5. Originally Posted by WTF

How is that coercive/unconstitutional?? Originally Posted by garhkal

ACLU objects to this saying its coercion.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee cried foul on the order, saying judges should not play a role in a person’s ability to procreate.


“Offering a so-called ‘choice’ between jail time and coerced contraception or sterilization is unconstitutional,” Hedy Weinberg, the organization’s executive director, said in a statement Thursday. “Such a choice violates the fundamental constitutional right to reproductive autonomy and bodily integrity by interfering with the intimate decision of whether and when to have a child, imposing an intrusive medical procedure on individuals who are not in a position to reject it.”

if they volunteer, its not coercion. the procedure is free.

taxpayers may object to this. it is not authorized under law. Even the district attorney is not in favor of it.

Well any judge is better than the gook Ito.

I can argue either way....reducing the sentence is a form of coercion.

Just like point a gun at someone and asking for them to give you their money looks like coercion. You're arguing that they did give you their money without a fight!

Either way, I think it a good thing.

That's close enough for Stockinglover!
