Prisoner freed after life sentence trimmed for donor blood act
In Ossining New York Governor Dewey commuted the life term of Louis Bay, a former Sing Sing inmate who donated blood to an leukemia stricken girl last summer. Bay’s actions, described as exceptional, led to the early reduction of his death sentence to time served and likely lifelong parole. Bay had previously participated in medical tests including wartime experiments, with Dewey praising his exemplary conduct and noting the safety concerns raised for licensure in Illinois and Georgia.
