Qld mum killed son 'out of love': judge - 9news.com.au https://apple.news/ANnRK8djQQYysfdj4Rsw-dg [quote]A mother who killed her severely disabled son because of concerns over his "pedophillic tendencies" and his vow to take his own life did so out of her great love for him, a judge has said. Kim Margaret Earle, 49, sobbed and shook as she was sentenced on Tuesday in the Brisbane Supreme Court, which heard she was of diminished responsibility when she killed her 18-year-old Brandon on the Gold Coast in 2013. Justice Roslyn Atkinson said Brandon's interest in sadomasochism and child porn had reached the point where he wanted to kill himself following his arrest for child pornography offences and his mother couldn't see any way out[/quote] Finally a win for euthanasia. Australia looks to be moving more conservative but at least a minor win for the libertarians. We're also on track to legalising weed nation wide, definitely a nice break from all the recent bans and restrictions here.
