Tennessee county reduced jail for prisoners that get a vasectomy

Inmates in White County, Tennessee have been given credit for their jail time if they voluntarily agree to have a vasectomy or birth control implant, a popular new program that is being called “unconstitutional” by the ACLU.
On May 15, 2017 General Sessions Judge Sam Benningfield signed a standing order that allows inmates to receive 30 days credit toward jail time if they undergo a birth control procedure.
Women who volunteer to participate in the program are given a free Nexplanon implant in their arm, the implant helps prevent pregnancies for up to four years. Men who volunteer to participate are given a vasectomy, free of charge, by the Tennessee Department of Health.
County officials said that since the program began a few months ago 32 women have gotten the Nexplananon implant and 38 men were waiting to have the vasectomy procedure performed.
Judge Benningfield told NewsChannel 5 that he was trying to break a vicious cycle of repeat offenders who constantly come into his courtroom on drug related charges, subsequently can’t afford child support and have trouble finding jobs.

That would imply a negative consequence if they don't do it. The consequence here is they continue as before: serve their full sentence.
100% support and frick the ACLU.

So you stay in jail longer or you chop your dick off? Seems like some fricked up Muslim shite.

I'm 100% behind this.

Give it to them for free, but the reduced sentence is a bit much.

I'm sort of liberal and think it's ok. As long as it's voluntary and the proper information is provided to the potential vasectomite.

Getting them out of jail for 30 days probably covers the expense of having the surgery, as far as tax payers money goes.

That operation fricked me up...I went to have the vasectomy done, but the damn doctor cut of my leg. His words were "my bad, I couldn't tell the difference."

If they're nonviolent offenders, if incentivize it even more. 6 months seems reasonable.

Probably, but I think the reduced sentence part is what could be attacked by the ACLU.
To put it another way, it's akin to getting a 30 day sentence next or a vasectomy at sentencing.

I say they won't like it because it means less future votes for the party.

Wish we had a payment program to incentive all people to do this.... 30 day worth of 50K/yr salary and a free permanent birth control medical procedure. Procedure reversals within the first 5 yrs require refund to the govt of the compensation.
