Alabama said he was too dangerous to parole. He’d been dead for 10 days.

As a kid I thought when someone got multiple life sentences his corpse would just stay in jail.

I wasn’t the brightest kid. But so isn’t Alabama as it seems.

Maybe Alabama is run by a bunch of rustyfishlettes

Hey, don’t you bad mouth Alabama. You just wait till uncle dad hears about this!

Alabama shouldn’t be allowed to hold prisoners if they cant guarantee their health and well being.

His family later discovered he had been returned without a heart.

Totally agree. All this mind-bogglingly malicious treatment of prisoners makes even the lightest sentence a possible death-sentence. Prisoners are human beings, and deserve to be treated as such.

I keep coming back to Dostoevsky’s line:

“The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons.”

-Fyodor Dostoevsky, The House of the Dead

I’m glad that parole boards aren’t unleashing zombies into the public.

I’m a bit more curious where the missing heart went, and how it got where it is now.

Classic wandering heart syndrome.

Brandon Clay Dotson met a similar fate as Fredrick Bishop. Dotson, 43, was found dead at Ventress Correctional Facility on November 16 – the same day as his parole hearing.

He, too, was denied.

Dotson died in prison, and his body was eventually returned to his family following an autopsy at the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences. His family later discovered he had been returned without a heart.

Gotta wonder if there isn’t a link here between denying releases and selling body parts.

The beatings will continue until the corpses behave
