normiss 906 #1 September 5, 2012 Seriously? I'm quite perplexed with this one. While I understand the need to treat for mental illness....umm...wow. I'm stuck on this one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiverMike 5 #2 September 5, 2012 QuoteChief Judge Mark L. Wolf ruled that sex reassignment surgery is the "only adequate treatment" for Kosilek, and "that there is no less intrusive means to correct the prolonged violation of Kosilek's Eighth Amendment right to adequate medical care." I am not as perplexed. I don't think his Eighth Amendment right includes sex reassignment surgery, nor does it include hair plugs, colagen lips, body piercings, or a myriad of other medical procedures that are not necessary to maintain/prolong life. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
