Lawson
Ken Macdonald
Brian Blackburn
In the first case of its kind in Britain, the police and prosecutors decision on whether to take action hinged on Mr Lawson's failure to dial 911 as his sister took her life at her home in Kent.
Ken Macdonald, the Director of Public Prosecutions, eventually told Mr Lawson's solicitors in April last year, five months after the suicide, that no action would be taken.
Yesterday, Mr Lawson decided to disclose his case after it emerged last week that another man, Brian Blackburn, escaped a prison sentence for helping his cancer-stricken wife commit suicide in a final act of love.
作為英國(guó)首例此類(lèi)案件,警方和檢察院都在考慮是否應(yīng)對(duì)勞森判處有罪,因?yàn)楫?dāng)姐姐在肯特的家自殺時(shí),他未及時(shí)撥打999報(bào)警電話(huà)阻止姐姐自殺。
在去年4月,即案件發(fā)生的5個(gè)月后,負(fù)責(zé)勞森一案的檢察官肯·麥克唐納告訴勞森的律師,勞森將被判無(wú)罪。
上周另一名男子,布萊恩·布萊克本幫助自己受癌癥折磨的妻子安樂(lè)死后,同樣逃脫了牢獄之災(zāi)。昨天,勞森先生才打算公開(kāi)他的經(jīng)歷。
