Sisters Prison Release For Kidney Transplant
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110107/...eleased_kidney
PEARL, Miss. – Two sisters whose life sentences were suspended on the condition that one donate a kidney to the other were released from a Mississippi prison on Friday after serving 16 years for an armed robbery.
I have heard of Governor's pardoning criminals, or staying execution. Can someone explain to me how that is legal? I can understand Judge's overruling, but how do Governor's have that power?
In this case the sentences were suspended. And there was a condition of their release.
