Euthanasia by wife
-
I can't begin to imagine how wrenchingly difficult that must have been for her to do. And the courage it took.

Nor can I.
If you look at the story, supposedly it was supposed to be a "
euthanasiamurder/suicide" and she couldn't bring herself to kill herself. -
(Devil's advocate mode)
Did she plan the killing? Yes.
Does the victim's wish have anything to do with the law? Probably not.That qualifies as Murder 1, right?
Now, do medical euthanasia.

You're gonna send grandma to the chair for putting her dying husband out of his misery?

I’ll bite - yes the method is worth arguing about.
Couldn’t she have found a way that didn’t implicate herself in a murder?

Messy, as @Renauda points out. What about a rapid-acting poison? How about an OD of fentanyl?
Couldn’t she have found a way that didn’t implicate herself in a murder?
If it was a planned murder/suicide, as the story suggests, that probably wasn't on her mind.
