New Jersey Threatens to Block Killer's Kidney Gift

IRVINGTON, N.J. — If killer nurse Charles Cullen stops cooperating with a probe into his crimes, New Jersey authorities say, they'll withhold the one thing they have that he really wants: permission to donate a kidney to an ailing acquaintance.

Cullen notified authorities earlier this week that he would no longer cooperate in identifying his victims because he is angry that his sentencing was postponed indefinitely while prosecutors in Essex and Morris counties try to decide whether to charge him with additional murders.

In newspaper reports published Wednesday, his lawyer, Johnnie Mask, said Cullen would renew his efforts to avoid appearing at his sentencing, denying relatives of his victims their long-sought chance to confront him in court.

The state has insisted Cullen appear at his sentencing to face his victims' families before being permitted to donate a kidney to a recipient whose name has not been made public, but is reportedly a relative of a former girlfriend.

"We don't care if Charles Cullen donates a kidney to anyone," Attorney General Peter Harvey said Wednesday. "He's either going to die in jail or pursuant to the death penalty. It doesn't matter to us."

They've gone beyond simple graft and political hanky panky and into the realm of using government power as an official instrument of law-breaking.

Among the offenses spurring the colonists' bid for freedom were committed by King George circa 1776: "He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance."

Government-appointed leeches were considered serious enough by our Founding Fathers to be listed in the Declaration of Independence as one of the reasons for rebellion against the British Crown........ ......thus, the foundation of our freedoms took shape.....

There is a new extortion for money out now. I only heard about it a few days ago and I'm still trying to get more information on it. So I might not be reiterating it correctly.

Practicing NJ doctors and dentists have to pay a new $75 fee to cover ob gyn student loans. If they don't pay the $75 fee, they can't get their NJ license renewed.

Who does this money go to specifically? The only school I know of in NJ that has ob gyn students is UMDNJ.
