> to me it honestly seems pretty reasonable if hospitals were to lower the priority of people who've been convicted of serious, deliberate violent offenses (where "serious" can be rigorously defined based on charges/sentences), given the very limited supply and high demand. Perhaps even restrict it to cases where the victim died, like this one.

Why would anyone want to add complexity to triage would be my knee jerk wonder, it’s supposed to be a quick process

Would the hospital need to wait for the legal system to get back to them before treatment can begin? How would you know if the patient has committed a crime without waiting?
