Inmate thrown from Roof

2007 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

I procure organs for transplant, went a donor to procure organs and the story was, that the patient, an inmate, had his fellow inmate throw him over the fence of the exercise yard which was on the roof of the Marion County Jail in Indianapolis, Indiana. As a way to escape, he landed on his head and was declared brain dead.
