Is Kevorkian still alive? Prison? Had heard much since his court days. Wonder if they let him out in the general population, or kept him isolated (so he couldn't help depressed inmates find peace, which wouldn't have been a bad thing). Or being a doctor, perhaps he was in charge of the lethal injection team...
But seriously, I think he should have been allow to assist in suicides, much cleaner way, than most choose these days. Plus, there have been suicides that took a few unwilling people with them. Not to mention the unpleasant trend of using the police, as firing squad. I'm sure apartment neighbors would rather get the body out quickly, rather than have to 'discover' it days/weeks later...
