A nonprofit in Kentucky is facing shutdown due to concerns over its practices. This organization is involved in coordinating organ recovery and matching them with patients in need. It is one of many groups doing this type of work across the country.

The decision to shut it down was made after certain incidents came to light. These incidents involved plans to retrieve organs from patients who showed signs of life, although the procedures were ultimately canceled. Further information on this situation is available from KPRC 2 / Click2Houston, including a statement from the organization in question and comments from a government official.
