Imagine you work in a hospital. you discover that a doctor is about to make an important decision. "dr.
x"is doing research that might save many hundreds of thousands, or even millions of lives. but to
complete that research, she needs to actively kill a perfectly healthy person to study how a recently-dead,
healthy heart works.
"dr. x" has decided to use a much older, homeless person with no friends or family. no one but you and
the doctor know this is about to happen. the homeless person will not experience any pain as a result of
the experiment. let's also say, for the purpose of this scenario, that "dr. x" won't get caught" unless you
say something to the authorities. you're wondering whether or not you should try to stop dr. x, perhaps
by publicizing what she's going to do and getting the law involved.
