If he is found guilty and then is put in jail, can we put a “kill yourself machine” in the cell with him?

Well, I support the right of anyone to commit suicide if they want to— except when they’ve been charged with a crime. So afterwards, sure, we can be merciful and let him kill himself.

Except, you know, we can’t, since we criminalize suicide. But as far as I’m concerned, sure.
