Ray Gosling is being charged with wasting police time after 'confessing' to a mercy killing.
The police haven't been able to substantiate his claim, hence his arrest.

However, Gosling made the claim in a BBC documentary...sure the police have to investigate the claim, but just because they've not been able to corroborate the story, surely it's not fair to prosecute the man?
It's not like he went into a police station and made the claim.
Is this fair?
