A report mentioned today on the Chinese Law Prof Blog links Chinese prisons, executions and conveniently-timed organ donations.

“The first comprehensive report on this issue of which I am aware is Human Rights Watch, China: Organ Procurement and Judicial Execution in China (August 1994). The research behind this report is extremely thorough and it is still worth reading,” writes professor Donald C. Clarke.
