Human rights abuses involving research on prison inmatesBetween 1963 and 1973 a series of experiments were undertaken on prisoners in Oregon and Washington in the United States. 131 healthy male prisoners had their testicles irradiated in order to assess the effect of radiation hazards on testicular function. There were no potential health benefits to the individual participants. Few if any were informed of the risk of testicular cancer, and other risks appear to have been under-reported. Participants were paid 25 cents a day, plus $25 for each testicular biopsy - most inmates had five or more – and an additional $25 for the vasectomy that was an integral part of the programme. Subsequently, individual participants successfully filed lawsuits alleging poorly supervised research and a lack of informed consent [3]. Although at that time it was not uncommon to give little information to research subjects, the concealment was unethical. Furthermore, there was absolutely no reason why detainees should have been used in preference to other groups.[3] US Department of Energy. Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments Report.
