Thanks, I appreciate, Kerry. You're right. If my brother doesn't want my help or my advice, I can't help him. All I can do is stand by him and wait until/if he sees he needs help. I suspect though he will be more likely to turn to friends who don't really have a moral compass and adhere to more worldly views about M and D.
My brother doesn't need the advice of unwise people, be they friends or not. He needs to C'ing and he needs legal representation and advice.
