Kevorkian Freed After Years in Prison for Aiding Suicide
CHICAGO, June 1
Jack Kevorkian, the former pathologist who brought the debate over physician-assisted suicide into the national spotlight a decade ago, saying he had helped 130 terminally ill people in their deaths, stepped out of a Michigan prison on Friday having pledged not to assist anyone else.
Mr. Kevorkian, 79, looked slightly frailer than he had when he was sent to prison eight years ago, convicted of second-degree murder in one death. One in a long list of conditions Mr. Kevorkian agreed to as part of a two-year period of parole, Michigan prison officials said, was not to participate in future suicides.
