A voluntary euthanasia campaigner who was facing a jail term over a man's killing has used her suicide note to accuse New South Wales Crown prosecutor Mark Tedeschi QC of harassment. Caren Jenning's suicide note was read out by Exit International director Dr Philip Nitschke to a voluntary euthanasia conference in Sydney this morning after she took her life last Thursday.
Jenning was due to face a sentencing hearing next month for being an accessory to manslaughter after the fact. She had imported the drug from Mexico that was used in the 2006 death of former Qantas pilot Graeme Wylie, who she and his wife maintained wanted to die.
"During the trial, I felt persecuted and harassed by Crown prosecutor Mark Tedeschi," she wrote. "He is a bully boy."
