An organ-procurement group in Kentucky pressured its personnel to retrieve organs from a hospital patient who was awake and later left the facility alive.

The allegation was among several made by witnesses who said procurement groups in various states have pushed workers and surgeons to secure organs from patients who were still alive.

A spokesman for the state's attorney general said it was reviewing the allegation with law enforcement.
