A relative bribing a doctor would be corrupt. A doctor accepting the bribe would be corrupt.The relative could not accomplish the act without the doctor. Therefore, while the relative is the instigator, the doctor would be the actor. Both would be on trial for murder and conspiracy charges. The doctor performing the "assisted suicide" would in this case be committing a severe abuse of his/her position. It matters not who is more corrupt, but without a corrupt doctor it doesn't happen.
BTW, the Madison I was referring to wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
