Irene Tuffrey-Wijne, a palliative care specialist at Britain’s Kingston University, led a study in which she reviewed 900 case files from 2012-2021, and discovered 39 cases that involved autistic or intellectually disabled individuals.

A new report on euthanasia in the Netherlands has revealed that numerous autistic people and people with intellectual disabilities have been euthanized solely because they felt they couldn’t lead “normal” lives.

Earlier this year, it was revealed that the Netherlands had killed a record number of people through euthanasia, 115 of whom had no illness beyond psychiatric issues. Euthanasia is largely unregulated there, allowing people with disabilities and autism to be killed — as Tuffrey-Wijne discovered — despite not being physically ill at all.
