Mercy-killing daughter, 55 spared prison
The Sentinel
|April 12, 2025
A WOMAN who killed her terminally-ill father has been allowed to walk free from court with a two-year suspended sentence by a judge who told her: "I recognise I have taken a merciful course."
-
Lisa Davenport, 55, smothered Barrie Davenport, 88, with a pillow at his home in Banbury, Oxfordshire, in October 2022.
Oxford Crown Court heard Mr Davenport had been suffering from terminal pancreatic cancer and was in a great deal of pain during his final few hours of life.
John Price KC, prosecuting, said that staff at Mr Davenport’s retirement complex and a doctor did not suspect foul play because his death was expected to be imminent.
