News » Inmates might get HIV test upon prison release
Mar. 16, 2010
A state lawmaker wants to test Wisconsin inmates for HIV when they're released from prison.
Rep. Barbara Toles of Milwaukee is behind the idea, and she says they would get a follow-up test while they're on extended supervison.
William Groshans of the state department of corrections says there could be problems with that. He says if the inmates don't agree to take the tests, they could go back into an already overcrowded prison system.
Groshans says the state already offers to test inmates for sexually transmitted diseases twice a year. He says it would cost about $1.5 million a year to test the 8,900 inmates who are released on an annual basis. |
