"Final Exit" Convicted of Assisting in Suicide

Update to my recent post mentioning the prosecution of a the right-to-die group Final Exit Network Inc. here in Minnesota: they were convicted today assisting in the suicide of a woman who took her life in 2007 after years of suffering with chronic pain; it's the first time they've been found guilty of this charge.  They do, of course, intend to appeal for violation of the First Amendment.
