silly question..lol.. but if you hire a hitman to kill you... is that still considered suicide... hypothetical scenario.. the world is about to end.
. you. don't want to die a miserable death... but you don't believe in suicide.... so hiring a hitman to do the deed.... suicide or not..

..

In the eyes of the law it would be considered murder unless they proved you took the contract out on your self....

ask Dr Kevorkian...

What if the hit man frames you for the crime... ?

obviously the hit man would make it look like some sort of accident. Like accidental heroin overdose... JK, Car wreck, electrocution in the tub, accidental poisoning, maybe an accidental arrow through the heart or gunshot through the head while cleaning the gun you don't own....

Then you'd be framed, I wouldn't consider that suicide unless you were in Texas and had a lawyer with a small belt buckle.

Meanwhile... Indulging the op's hypothetical scenario...

Would you pay him/her before, or after the job is completed?
That's the real question.

Suicide because you knowingly planned your own demise.

As I always look for loopholes..
Hiring a killer to kill someone is punishable by death.
So the hired gun really does not have to go through with it.

So they would prosecute the guy who hired the gun and
find him guilty.
And hang him.
His own fault.
Yes on suicide.

Although, he is probably out the hire $$.
And it won't be quick and easy like a hitman do :-)

Uh..what was the question?

... but how would they know that ..hmm..god that is..

My uncle grew up with a guy who ended up being an actual hitman here in Scotland, then he got whacked himself. Google Frank McPhie, Maryhill, Glasgow and you can read for yourself? That guy was nuts, 100%!!!

why didn't the CIA think of this when covering up JFK's & others deaths

I think legally it still counts as suicide - like "doctor-assisted suicide", only "hitman-assisted suicide". (Or maybe "assassinisted suicide"?) Philosophically and morally, it's still suicide - your main goal is to end your own life, just by someone else's hands. Philosophically, I don't see much difference between hiring a hitman to kill you, and throwing yourself off a cliff.
"But *I* didn't kill me, the GROUND killed me!"

I don't see why you'd want to waste the money when there are so many other, cheaper options. If you were that desperate to commit "_____-assisted suicide", then join the Army and ask for a posting to Iraq or Afghanistan. They give you a nice burial if they can recover the pieces of you.

so by smoking drinking doing drugs even walking across the street..
you technically are committing suicide..yes... taking your life into your own hands..

I'm sure Milo would do it for a treat lmao
