Serial Killer Is Allowed to Donate a Kidney
From Times Wire Reports
A judge has agreed to allow New Jersey’s most prolific serial killer to donate a kidney, but the donor and his doctors must meet conditions, such as having costs paid by the recipient’s insurer.
Superior Court Judge Paul W. Armstrong did not say when Charles Cullen might undergo the operation to remove one of his kidneys, which would go to the relative of a friend.
Cullen has admitted killing 29 patients with drug overdoses at nursing homes and hospitals in Pennsylvania and New Jersey; he has been given 18 life sentences.
