Conners turned himself in at a state police barracks Thursday and posted $50,000 bail, authorities said.
On the night his wife died, Conners called 911 and told officers who arrived that he had been woken up by the sound of the gunshot. Questioned further by police he said he had helped his wife because he couldn't watch her suffer any more. He said he held the gun because his wife was worried about flinching when pulling the trigger, according to the warrant.
Lori Conners had been diagnosed with terminal cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy treatments which, combined with symptoms of Lyme disease, made her very ill and sapped her will to live, police said Kevin Conners told them.
Kevin Conners also told authorities that he and his wife had done research on states where assisted suicide is legal, including Vermont, and considered going there before deciding it wasn't an option because Lori was not a Vermont resident, according to the warrant.

ReplyDeleteI don’t expect any less, even when you kill someone MISTAKENLY, you are charged with man slaughter, talk more of when you help someone kill herself.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it's illegal to assist anyone commit suicide.
DeleteI understand it's hard watching a loved one in so much pain and distress, but I guess there's a law against it to check people with ulterior motive.

ReplyDeleteDid he read 'Me Before You'by Jojo Moyes and decide to put it in practice?
ReplyDeleteI think assisted suicide is legal in some parts of the world, depending on the gravity of the person's illness and the lack of will to live.
Places like Switzerland have legalized it. I guess that's where Dignitas; an institution for such is located.
Me before you..
