A man who pitched a tent in prison for over two days straight is suing the infirmary nurse for "cruel and uncivilized conduct" because she didn't help his erection go away. Dawud Yaduallah, 43, was doing time for assault at the Downstate Correctional Facility in Fishkill in March 2006 when his daily dosage of Seroquel was boosted by 25 percent. The anti-psychotic medication can cause side-effects such as "persistent and painful erections," and after 14 hours of wood, Yaduallah went to see the nurse, whose name is Judith Lovelace, tee hee. She told him to ice his rod and sent him back to his cell, but that didn't help and the two-day erection (this is where it's not so funny) left him with "severe damage to his penis, including erectile dysfunction, inability to ejaculate and pain during sexual intercourse." His lawyer blames Lovelace, telling the Post, "The medical literature is clear that if you see a doctor within 24 hours, you generally won't have any permanent damage. He didn't see a doctor for over two days." He's since been, uh, fully released from prison, but now his marriage is on the rocks and he needs a prosthesis "to possibly restore some sexual function."

This story has made my day. Thanks.
What? None of his fellow inmates wanted to help get rid of the boner?
What, his marriage wasn't on the rocks before? I mean, a psychotic career criminal, who wouldn't want to stay married to that?
a woman who couldn't land a sociopathic career white collar criminal
jesus christ that picture is hilarious
Seems to me that this procedure should go along with jail time for rapists and pedophiles.
ha
I was tempted to insert an image, but I do not think I have seen that done in these parts. So click it.
lol
he'll easily win this suit, buy himself a detachable penis, and then embark on an exciting career in porn.
i think it was safe to say...this man was doing some "hard" time
an erection costing tax payers money.
what next.
Now that's cruel and unusual punishment.
I'm having a hard time with this story.
This is hardly amusing.
that's a stiff penalty
I guess he has a bone to pick with the nurse.
If he had a problem with it why didn't they just cut it off? The world would be a better place if they did.
He should be sent to a penal colony.
Is this more Gothamist editorializing? The article mentions his marriage was having "difficulties" and all of a sudden, Gothamist (or specifically JDS) says it's "on the rocks."
It's hard to believe he will win this case.
He's gone soft ever since he got out of the can.
A men worst nightmare is to lose your tool.
How is he so certain of these side effects if he is in prison?
Hey, no one said prison would be fun. If you do the crime, you do the time; prisoners should stop crying to society for their ordinary woes. Unless the nurse was acting completely recklessly and indifferent, this law suit is bullshit. Yeh, prisoners have Constitutional rights, but they don't have the right to complain about good faith services for their benifit. In the grand scheme of things, they are lucky they are not in a prison in a third world country. There, they would not even get medicine or a nurse to help.
