Texas inmate asks to delay execution for kidney donation
Fox News
A Texas inmate asked his execution be delayed in order to donate a kidney after already making an earlier donation this year.
In a letter sent Wednesday, Gonzales’ lawyers, Thea Posel and Raoul Schonemann, asked Republican Gov. Greg Abbott to grant a 30-day reprieve for the inmate to be considered a living donor "to someone who is in urgent need of a kidney transplant."
His attorneys have made a separate request to the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles for a 180-day reprieve related to the kidney donation.
