If someone drowns in Te Awa Tupua, does the river get charged with Murder, or Manslaughter?

If you strangle yourself with my arm, did I murder you?

  • My comment was clearly a joke; however yes, in the jurisdiction I am living in, you would be assisting in euthanasia, which would render you liable for murder.

    • I know it was a joke:)

      if it's the same in NZ, maybe the river should get some sort of limited license for euthanasia assistance!
