George’s situation is definitely a difficult one that’s hard to put into perspective if you aren’t dealing with it first hand. If I were in his shoes, I’m not sure what I would do. Although I would hate to see my loved one suffer, I doubt I’d have to strength to simply put them out of their misery, regardless of it they begged for it or not. In terms of the verdict reached in Sanders’ case, I feel the jury made the right decision. George’s actions were that of compassion and mercy, not anger and vengeance. Given his age, he wouldn’t have managed very well in prison and he didn’t deserve to be there. Mercy Killing, in this case. is surprisingly understandable in my opinion.
