Well, verdict and sentence are two different animals. The verdict would be relatively simple to decide, albeit extremely difficult to carry out. To the exten that I'd have control over the sentence, I'd do everything I could to see that it was as light as possible.
And to all of you that would find him not guilty, any judge in the country would set aside such a verdict.

While he may have been guilty of a state law, the greater question that needs to be asked by the juror is, "Is the specific law(s) in regards to this case a RIGHTEOUS LAW based on common sense, totality of evidence gathered, and threat to society of letting such action(s) occur in the future". If the woman, of clear mind, asked to die, and furthermore, specifically asked for her husband to carry out an act that would end her suffering---in a NON-cruel and painful manner---then this man should not be convicted, let alone stand trial in the first place. It would be different if the woman wanted to live, but the old man got tired of paying her medical bills or whatever and cut off her head with a hatchet.
I don't have respect for the majority of federal and state laws because they are NOT BASED ON RIGHTEOUSNESS, FAIRNESS AND THE OVERALL PUBLIC GOOD, BUT ON GREEDY, SPECIAL-INTEREST CONTROLLED, CORRUPTABLE POLITICIANS MAKING UP LAWS TO KEEP THEMSELVES, AND THEIR WEALTHY/POWERFUL SUPPORTERS, IN OFFICE. Whether Repbulican or Democrat, most are at fault of this.
EXAMPLE: AAS is completely illegal, ephedra will probably be banned within the next 5 years, and yet ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO products are perfectly legal, with no restrictons except that of age. You can be 9 months pregnant, and still be able to walk into a liqour store and buy 10 bottles of Jack Daniels. Where is the concern for public safety there? There is none, because the politicians care more about collecting BILLIONS in tax revenue from the sale of tobacco and alcohol then protecting the public. I can't remember the last time I read a newspaper article about someone on pot, AAS or ephedra being intoxicated and killing people in a car accident.
All of this nonsense is why I vote Libertarian.
