Prison Offers Viagra to Sex Offenders

February 13, 2002 7:17 am EST
OSLO (Reuters) - Doctors at Norway's national prison are under scrutiny for
prescribing Viagra pills to inmates serving time for sexual crimes,
officials said on Tuesday.
The chief county medical officer of health confirmed that Viagra had been
prescribed to at least two sex-crime inmates but defended the use of the
anti-impotence pills.
"An inmate is a normal individual who from time to time -- when on leave --
wants to have functional sexual relations with his girlfriend or spouse,"
Anders Smith said.
"If they have a problem, they have the same rights as anyone else to get
help," he told Reuters.
The governor of Ila national prison near Oslo said he wanted more
information about the use of Viagra after a 42-year-old inmate, serving time
for incest, was prescribed the pill and later sexually abused his
16-year-old son in the prison's visiting area.
"We need a clarification of the situation. We need to know what's going on,"
governor Knut Bjarkeid told Reuters. Under current rules, the medical
records of the inmates are confidential -- even to prison officials.
Bjarkeid said he had sent a letter to the medical authorities that oversees
the health services of the prison's 115 inmates, asking for an
investigation.
Still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest....

Maybe they were sort of going for a Dante-esque type punishment. "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
