Texas has a law where an inmate convicted of rape can be surgically castrated. (Texas 501.061 Orchiectomy For Certain Sex Offenders)

The rapists must be up for parole but castration cannot be a condition of parole.

Five requirements must be met first for the sexual offender’s testicles to be removed:

• The inmate up for parole must be at least 21 years old or older
• Convicted of TWO or MORE certain sexual offenses
• Undergo an extensive mental health evaluation as part of an informed consent
• Sign a statement of admission for committing the convicted offense
• Request the procedure in writing

The State of Texas also requires this before convicted rapists can be castrated:

….Texas …shall appoint, …a monitor to assist an inmate in his decision to have an orchiectomy.  The monitor must have experience in the mental health field, in law, and in ethics.  The monitor shall consult with the inmate to:

(1)  ensure adequate information regarding the orchiectomy has been provided to the inmate by medical professionals providing treatment or advice to the inmate;

(2)  provide information regarding the orchiectomy to the inmate if the monitor believes the inmate is not adequately informed about the orchiectomy;

(3)  determine whether the inmate is free from coercion in his decision regarding the orchiectomy;  and

(4)  advise the inmate to withdraw his request for an orchiectomy if the monitor determines the inmate is being coerced to have an orchiectomy.

 

At any time a rapist can change his mind and not be castrated before the procedure. 

The procedure is completely voluntary.

Texas allows every opportunity to give the rapists informed consent in the matter.

Texas allows every opportunity to give the rapists choice in the matter.
