Paging Doctor Kavorkian...paging doctor Kavorkian...

Wow!

Australian Man Gunned Down in Driveway by Killer Robot

The Gold Coast man, who lived alone, left notes of his plans and thoughts as he struggled to come to terms with demands by interstate relatives that he move out his home and into care.
He spent hours searching the Internet for a way to kill himself, downloaded what he needed and then built a complex machine that would remotely fire a gun.

(...)

The machine was attached to a .22 semi-automatic pistol loaded with four bullets.
It was able to fire multiple shots into the man's head after he activated it.

Not sure. Seemed to come from a Fox newssite, so...err...yaknow, maybe, could be?

I choose to believe myself, just because that's a pretty crazy story to think up.
