God damn--the Daily Telegraph makes the Daily Mail look like the BBC.

FTFA: "I don't object to us paying for life-threatening surgery if required but I'll be stuffed if we should be paying because his waterworks are having problems."

I love this quote.

Therapist?

Penis erectus non compos mentis.

TsarTom: To be fair, he does have a lot of free time in his hands.

He also may have a case for proving the charges wrong -- if it doesn't "stand up" in the doctor's office, there's a good question about it "standing up" for any other use or abuse. He may just have a very good lawyer at work here.

Was it this guy?

FTFA: "This is not life-threatening. This bloke should have been a candidate for chemical castration while he was in [theatre]."

Good god, man! They castrate you in the theater now? I mean, I know you need to be a little gay to enjoy some of those musical numbers, but castration is a bit extreme.

Thelvth paragraph: "Powch, a hardened criminal..." LOL

Could they find an older pic of the dude? He looks like an extra in Electric Boogaloo.

"Powch, a hardened criminal"

Not too hardened if he needs treatment for erectile dysfunction.

What a boner

boobsrgood: His erectile issues should have been solved permanently when he got his third rape conviction.



Might I suggest a course of action?

Is that you Rant Casey?

Stiff sentence....not like his penis ;)

"I don't object to us paying for life-threatening surgery if required but I'll be stuffed if we should be paying..."

He he

You see that rap sheet?

Guy is hard core

Gyrfalcon: Molavian: boobsrgood: His erectile issues should have been solved permanently when he got his third rape conviction.

Might I suggest a course of action?

Might I suggest an NSFW warning? EWwww.

I'm pretty sure that's just a sausage.

Pretty sure...

I hear that stimulation of the prostate will help that.

"C'mere bubba, this man needs some help from therapist"

Wtf, in the UK they only get 3 years for a rape? That seems like a bigger problem than some guy's erection.

/DRTFA

Cue lawsuit from his cellmate for cruel and unusual punishment.

/maybe not that unusual in prison
//it's not unusual to be loved by anyone

nothing this cant solve

It's just a pork tenderloin.

Sheesh.

Everytning should be swell with the old "claw hammer" technique.

Deal with it. TFA: "the department does not take offending history into consideration when providing health services." That is the correct position for government to take. Suffering from untreated medical problems while in custody is not part of the sentence and the state is responsible for the health of people in custody who are not free to seek treatment on their own.

The problem in this case is the violation of medical privacy and whoever leaked the story should be prosecuted. Nobody should be outraged, because nobody should be hearing about it!

You don't set policy based on the worst person who might benefit. There are unrepentant scumbags in prison. There are people in the same system for lessor crimes and people who are going to be found innocent on appeal. The system treats them equally.

How about this medical procedure? (Possibly NSFW)
