It might reduce crime, and would also solve the issue of the current organ donation shortage.

 Good/bad?


If I'm going to rob a bank, the thought of my organs being donated to science 55 years from now when I die isn't going to sway me.  Also a lot of non-offenders add themselves to the organ donation list voluntarily; therefore this wouldn't even be a punishment for many people?  And it's not like your organs are being harvested right then and there, like I said there being harvested after you die 50-60 years from now for a crime you commited today?  I'm sorry, but I don't see how this would work.  Also solving the organ shortage?  A 70-80 year old's heart/organs wouldn't do much good to anyone anyways, for a crime he/she may of commited when they were 20-30.
