Section 22-8B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds all of the following: (1) In almost
every state, it is a crime to assist a suicide. These bans are long-standing expressions of
the commitment of the states to protect and preserve all human life. (2) The state has an
interest in protecting vulnerable groups, including the impoverished, the elderly, and disabled
persons from abuse, neglect, and mistakes. A ban on assisted suicide reflects and reinforces
our belief that the lives of those in vulnerable groups are no less valued than the lives
of the young and healthy. (3) The state has an interest in protecting the integrity and ethics
of the medical profession, including its obligation to serve its patients as healers and adhere
to the principles articulated in the Hippocratic Oath. (4) The state recognizes the close
link between physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia where a right to die can easily become
a duty to die. A prohibition against assisted suicide is the only...
