Thawing a cryonics patient cannot legally be considered murder because only people who are legally dead can be cryonically preserved. But cryonics patients are being cryopreserved because of the possibility that future medicine can cure their diseases, rejuvenate them to a youthful condition, and undo any damage that was done during the cryopreservation process. If technology advances as cryonics advocates hope, and cryonics patients can be revived in the future, then thawing a cryonics patient will come to be considered murder.
