There was a man in the UK who suffocated his daughter she was mentally ill and wanted to die so he helped her, she had been ill for some years and he was arrested and got the minimum sentance from the judge.

I think that was wrong it was murder or at the very very least assisted suicide and he should be punished accordingly.

I feel unless someone has a diagnosis from several Drs that the person is going to die within a short time and in pain then its murder and nothing less.
