Dead man’s sperm to be taken by court order

A Travis County judge has signed an order today requiring the medical examiner’s office to preserve the body of an assault victim until his sperm can be taken and make the body available to an expert trained in collecting such specimens.
Probate Judge Guy Herman signed the temporary restraining order and mandatory injunction at 3 p.m. at the request of Marissa Evans, whose son died Sunday. Nikolas Colton Evans, 20, shown at right, was assaulted on East Sixth Street on March 27 and remained at the University Medical Center at Brackenridge until his death.
Marissa Evans, 42, said in a court affidavit and an interview today that she wants to use the sperm to have a grandchild through a surrogate mother.
“I want him to live on,” Evans said. “I want to keep a piece of him.”
Evans said in the affidavit that her son had told her that he wanted to have three children and had already chosen their names: Hunter, Tod and Van.
According to court documents and Marissa Evans, she repeatedly asked hospital officials and representatives from an organ donation agency to extract her son’s sperm leading up to and immediately after his death. They declined, she said.
The documents said that the sperm must be collected within 24 hours of Evans’ death for it to remain viable or that his body must be cooled to no more than 4 degrees centigrade. Evans agreed to donate her son’s organs, which required him to be on life support until 9 p.m. Monday, documents said.
Police have said Evans was leaving a bar on Sixth Street with a friend about 2 a.m. on March 27 when they got into an argument with several men.
After that argument, police say another group approached Evans and his friend and that one of the men in that group hit both of them. Evans hit his head on the ground after he was punched, police said.

Just when you thought that breeders could not get any worse - but this plainly perverse. The mother wants a grandchild (GREEDY) and she loves her son so much she wants to preserve his sperm for just this purpose. These people do not “need” grandchildren, they need professional psychiatric help. It isn’t bad enough her son died in an assault attack. Legal motions like that make me question just how much these parents really love their children (most of them do not since they just lust for a child). Apparently they don’t. And what’s with the so-called “obligation” of Evans to her son’s lustful wishes? Three kids? Three non-existent kids with their names already picked out? What sort of an accomplishment is that?The organ donation is a better accomplishment, because creating more starving mouths isn’t.
