Inmates Pay Jail Blood Bill with Donations
Inmates at Maricopa County Jail donated blood to cover a $450 charge billed to jailer Capt. Dave Edwards. Nurses from the Southwest Blood Bank supervised the procedure as 165 inmates contributed blood, with each pint costing $18. The operation left Tweedy’s son and others affected by the unusual incident, while the hospital noted the transfusions were successful and the jail kept a tally of units used.
