In this week's episode, Sally and Ben do a deep dive into the case of David Hunter – the British Cypriot who was released by the Cypriot courts following the intentional killing of his terminally unwell wife. The episode explores the international landscape of euthanasia and mercy killing, reflects on the legal and ethical aspects of this tragic case, and discusses how Christian medics could respond if the UK legalises medically-assisted dying. References:Sky News report of David Hunter Case: https://news.sky.com/story/david-hunter-sentenced-to-two-years-for-manslaughter-of-terminally-ill-wife-in-cyprus-12930993Our Duty of Care Website:https://ourdutyofcare.org.uk/latest/John Wyatt, Right to Die?- Euthanasia, Assisted Suicide and End-of-Life Care (IVP, 2015)Association of Palliative Care website:https://apmonline.org/BMA Survey on Physician-Assisted Dying:https://www.bma.org.uk/media/3367/bma-physician-assisted-dying-survey-report-oct-2020.pdfRunning the Final Lap- Finding Support, seminar by John Wyatt at Keswick Convention 2023:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI8ufbZrtjc&list=PLiH8SxyNwkiFZPgJhf9bQQKH9qq4c6og3&index=6&t=4035sSupport the show
