Frances Inglis, 57, admitted killing her 22-year-old son Tom in November 2008 because she did not want to see him suffer -- but denied murder. She told the court he was in a "living hell" after suffering severe head injuries when he fell out of a moving ambulance in July 2007, and insisted she had acted "with love in my heart". However, Judge Brian Barker told the Old Bailey court in London: "We can all understand the emotion and the unhappiness that you were experiencing. "The fact is that you knew that you intended to do a terrible thing. You knew you were breaking society's conventions, you knew you were breaking the law, and you knew the consequences." The jury found Inglis, of Dagenham, east London, guilty of murder and attempted murder -- she had first tried to end her son's life in September 2007. She was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum of nine years in jail. During the trial, Inglis wept as she described her despair at the "horror, pain and tragedy" of her son's helpless condition, telling the court: "For Tom to live that living hell -- I couldn't leave my child like that." She admitted ending his life but said: "I did it with love in my heart for Tom, so I don't see it as murder." However, prosecuting lawyer Miranda Moore said in her closing statement: "It is a tragic case but it is not a defence to murder to end someone's life to put them out of their misery."[/quote] Tom Inglis, the son: [img]http://d.yimg.com/i/ng/ne/afp/20100120/17/2593946262-mother-jailed-killing-son-heroin-jab.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=Sethorion;19746011]Is that the mother or the son?[/QUOTE] I can't tell either.

More likely she did it because she was ashamed to have a retard of a son.

[quote=sethorion;19746011]is that the mother or the son?[/quote] the wittyness

[QUOTE=Haxxer;19746046]the wittyness[/QUOTE] I honestly can't tell.

[QUOTE=Perfumly;19746028]More likely she did it because she was ashamed to have a retard of a son.[/QUOTE] Thats not funny

She did it with good intentions - but how can we be sure? Maybe caring for him was too much so she killed him?

[QUOTE=Within;19746060]I honestly can't tell.[/QUOTE] But it's so clearly the son.

[QUOTE=Veribigbos;19746062]Thats not funny[/QUOTE] but probably true

[QUOTE=NeoDement;19746092]But it's so clearly the son.[/QUOTE] Usually new stories like these have a mugshot of the criminal which is why I said that. Plus I honestly can't tell.

[QUOTE=Veribigbos;19746062]Thats not funny[/QUOTE] It wasn't a joke.

[QUOTE=Perfumly;19746147]It wasn't a joke.[/QUOTE] Agreed :wom:

[quote] She told the court he was in a "living hell" after suffering severe head injuries when he fell out of a moving ambulance in July 2007, and insisted she had acted "with love in my heart".[/quote]Talk about Final Destination.

[QUOTE=Perfumly;19746147]It wasn't a joke.[/QUOTE] Its still a terrible thing to say.

[QUOTE=Veribigbos;19746435]Its still a terrible thing to say.[/QUOTE] Oh sorry for stating a possible (true) explanation for what happened. People are fucked up. Deal w/ it

So she's jailed for giving one of the ultimate loves a mother can give to their child. It's not easy for a mother to merciful end their own child's life.

[QUOTE=doommarine23;19746490]So she's jailed for giving one of the ultimate loves a mother can give to their child. It's not easy for a mother to merciful end their own child's life.[/QUOTE] Yes I will just go around and end people's lives who I believe want to die. I will surely not be breaking any laws, and I should not get in any trouble.

this is just another example of how strange, cruel, unaccepting, and corrupt our world is. What ever happened to loving your family members.

Life is very harsh for this, I bet she will appeal her sentence.

[QUOTE=Perfumly;19746516]Yes I will just go around and end people's lives who I believe want to die.

Than again, I only skimmed the article and didn't see anything about the kid's saying. So really, I'm in the middle, she did it cause she didn't want him to suffer, but he was probably a-okay with life.

He fell out of a moving ambulance? How the hell did that happen?

Fuck...[QUOTE=Smoot;19747020]He fell out of a moving ambulance? How the hell did that happen?[/QUOTE] They were going uphill and forgot to close the back doors, I'm guessing. Either way, that's the worst fucking thing ever.

[QUOTE=Sethorion;19746116]Usually new stories like these have a mugshot of the criminal which is why I said that.[/QUOTE] Same point for me.

Why life in Jail Ge was brain damages I say Give you death

[QUOTE=Perfumly;19746028]More likely she did it because she was ashamed to have a retard of a son. [highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("Does not deserve mod." - Hezzy))[/highlight][/QUOTE] What this should say.

[QUOTE=BRIAN BLESSED;19748521]What this should say.[/QUOTE] I don't think he was joking. What he said could of actually been the reason for why she killed him.

[QUOTE=Perfumly;19746516]Yes I will just go around and end people's lives who I believe want to die. I will surely not be breaking any laws, and I should not get in any trouble.[/QUOTE] How many times in your life will you have a son tormented with brain damage.
