. . . and I see this "Cause no. 14855: Aiding Suicide".
I've been doing this criminal law gig for over 20 years and I've never seen an Aiding Suicide case.
So I looked it up. Did you know if the suicide is unsuccessful that the punishment carries with it no jail time and "up to a $500 fine"? But if the suicide was, uh, successful or resulted in "serious bodily injury" then it is a State Jail Felony (up to 2 years in jail and up to a $10,000 fine.)
