Interesting. I think better screening would solve that issue. Just screen people and set them up for repetitive donations. Have a meeting a couple of weeks before they can donate, test their blood, and then clear them if they are good. Then this can still be a thing that helps people especially poverty stricken ones (without ailments).

Tell me if I'm wrong here but I always think about why this has to be a donation and this can't be something people get paid for. Isn't the hospital turning your donation right around into a profit? I'm not trying to dissuade charity but honestly this seems like something twisted to me.

The problem is the dumb cops who are bad at their job will use this as a crutch to skip steps and build cases around the wrong people just like they have done before. So as much as I'd like to have better tools to catch criminals our unchecked and bad police processes will cause innocent people to get swept up.

Why is your solution to further degrade the prison system? Can't we just improve it so things like this don't happen instead of doing more of the same?

It's like "a few good apples" continues to be the excuse in America to do nothing to improve our policing
