A mother who gave her brain-damaged son a lethal heroin injection to end his suffering has told a jury: "I did it with love in my heart."

Frances Inglis told the Old Bailey she had "no choice" but to give her 22-year-old son a fatal overdose.

Mr Inglis was left in what his mother described as a "living hell" after suffering serious head injuries when he fell out of an ambulance in July 2007.
