No charge against man who watched his sister kill herself

A BRITISH man who comforted his terminally-ill sister during her harrowing 26-hour suicide will not be charged with a crime, it was revealed yesterday.

Graham Lawson, from west Kent, faced the possibility of 14 years’ imprisonment because he watched his 48-year-old sister, Sue, die.

She repeatedly tried to suffocate herself with a plastic bag, “howling” with despair as she reached the point of being unable to resist taking a breath, said Graham.
