"Kevorkian: Hero or villain?"

by Jeff Wolffe

Wayne State University lecturer and journalist Jack Lessenberry is quoted in an article highlighting the life, career and death of assisted suicide practitioner Jack Kevorkian. Lessenberry, who covered many of the assisted suicides said: "Jack Kevorkian, faults and all, was a major force for good in this society. He forced us to pay attention to one of the biggest elephants in society's living room: The fact that today vast numbers of people are alive who would rather be dead, who have lives not worth living."
