why did georgia kill cynthia's husband

Georgia killed Cynthia's husband, Tom Fuller, in the show "Ginny & Georgia" as an act she believed was merciful and kind. Tom was in a comatose state and on hospice care, and Cynthia was emotionally devastated by watching her husband slowly deteriorate. Georgia, seeing Cynthia's suffering and wanting to repay her for her kindness and help during a difficult moment, smothered Tom with a pillow to end his prolonged suffering. This was not an act done with malice but rather one Georgia saw as ending Tom's pain and helping Cynthia move on. Unfortunately, Georgia's son Austin witnessed the act, and this murder led to Georgia's arrest at her own wedding. This killing was surprising given Georgia's past murders were mostly self-protective or defensive, while in this case, it was framed as an act of mercy towards a suffering friend.
