Euthanasia campaigner Dr Philip Nitschke invents Sarco suicide capsule with 3D printer

We know that 3D printing technology can produce all kinds of devices and products for the treatment of people suffering from various medical problems that are often life-saving, but what about those not looking to save their life but to end it? This apparently counter-intuitive medical function could become more and more important as euthanasia becomes increasingly acceptable and common around the world, and a recent 3D printing breakthrough made by a controversial Dutch assisted dying expert looks well-placed to take advantage of the potential suicidal spread.
