    Briscoe was my favorite detective on this show, but I loved Greevy being paired with Logan. They really were able to do some impeccable detective work in their cases, such as with how they mapped out the phone info of the victims.

    I always love hearing the "if you commit suicide, you don't get the insurance" line in movies.
    Typically, suicide only nullifies an insurance policy benefit if the death is within 2 years of issue.
    Outside of the 2 year contestable period, suicide as a cause of death would trigger a payout of the policy benefits.
    (if you have an existing policy in force for a number of years, and increase the amount, the increased amount above the original is subject to the same 2 year window from the date of increase)

    It might be disagreeable, but assisted suicide should be a legal way to end your life. Not for any circumstance, but under conditions like terminal cancer, aids, ALS, MS, etc. No one should have to suffer a slow agonizing death, so that people not even connected to them can feel better about how that other person died. Both of my grandmas died slowly, painfully. In their shoes, I wouldn't want to drag it out. I saw what it did to my parents. It's devastating.

    If the defendant is to be believed, this was assisted suicide in all but the last case. By holding the firearm while it discharged, the law says he is guilty of unlawful homicide. The exact charge is open to debate, but Murder 1 is pretty much out of the question. Myself, I would charge him with involuntary manslaughter. What right do we have to tell someone they have to live in unbearable suffering?

      So charge him with insurance fraud. But not murder in the cases where he assisted the suicide. There is no getting around the last one though. He was holding the firearm while it discharged. That's some kind of homicide charge right there, although I think justice would be best served by involuntary manslaughter.

    There needs to be a legally recognized process for terminal patients to call it quits.
    The law today is more concerned with control over human life, rather than its quality.
    Laws concerning suicide and assisted termination are too often a question of control, and not compassion.

    Under the law in the UK a charge of assisting a suicide can only bought with the consent of the Attorney General. In nine out of ten cases consent is not given as it is a relative of the person who died. The only time consent to prosecute might be given is if the person assisting was a professional care giver.

      (they don't, but they're supposed to )
      First, they can't serve an ordinary warrant "no knock" They have to have "no knock warrant" Robinette didn"t say, "I'll see the judge and get a warrant" of any kind. He said "pick him up". It just doesn't work that way. Haven't you ever heard of the 4th amendment???
      ""The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
      Without a specific "no knock"warrant, signed by a judge, all they can legally do is knock on his door and ask him to come out. And I'm pretty sure his friend has a nice lawsuit for illegal arrest and detainment. He wasn't wanted for anything.
      Even in Houston the criminal pigs have to at least lie to a judge and get a no knock warrant before they break in and murder people.
