A depressed or desperate individual wants to end their own life, but, for various reasons (a desire to make a point, insurance, programming, or moral aversion to suicide), is not willing to do it themself.
Instead, they engineer a situation in which someone else will be forced to do it for them. The "classic" scenario involves a criminal indiscriminately attacking Innocent Bystanders or police so that they will be forced to shoot. More sympathetic characters, however, will simply pull an unloaded gun or realistic toy gun on a police officer and hope they respond with lethal force. In real life, it is fairly common: at least one study showed that about a third of officer-involved shootings in the US are suicide-by-cop attempts. Granted, the numbers might be substantially off — statistics on officer-involved shootings in the US are notoriously sketchy — but the point that this is surprisingly common still stands.
It doesn't need to be a literal cop, as the trope can be broadly applied to any situation where a character attacks specifically because the expected reaction from the relevant authorities will cause the desired outcome of their death, such as a theorized Cold War scenario in which a megalomaniac United States general attacks the Soviet Union because the Soviet counterstrike would kill him (and a few million others, but who's counting?)
It's also possible to commit it accidentally — Shoot Him, He Has a Wallet! is unfortunately Truth in Television. Avoiding this is why you never touch or move threateningly at a police officer, you never make movements that could be seen as reaching for a weapon around cops, and why you never brandish or carry a prop or fake weapon (much less a real one) in a way that suggests immediate use when one could possibly come into contact with police.note If you carry fake or prop weapons in public, you're advised to make them look safe at first glance with proper paint/markings/other "safety bonding," and openly carried firearms where it's legal to open carry should be holstered in closed holsters.
A variant that takes this trope to another level is Suicide by State, in which the person commits a crime that bears the death penalty and gets executed. This has really happened in Real Life — it was a popular method used by really desperate Scandinavians and Germans in a time when suicide was considered an unforgivable sin. By killing an innocent child, it was figured, both win; the child is innocent and goes to Heaven, you get to repent and prepare for death, and in the end, the state lops your head off or hangs you or whatever, and everyone "wins".
Compare My Death Is Just the Beginning, where the death is part of an ongoing plan; if it's the end result, it tends to be a Thanatos Gambit. This trope can also overlap with Going Postal if a downtrodden drone becomes a Spree Killer both to go out in a blaze of "glory" and to take some coworkers, customers, classmates, or other bystanders with them. See also Death Seeker for a character built around this. Criminals who declare that they're Never Going Back to Prison are particularly likely to do this. When you send someone else to get killed (by the police or any other armed force), it's The Uriah Gambit. This is related to I Cannot Self-Terminate.
This is a Death Trope, so expect spoilers.

In Dissidia Final Fantasy: Opera Omnia, Golbez attempts to do this repeatedly in the chapter "Light" over his guilt for the atrocities he committed while under the influence of an evil entity in his homeworld. When his brother Cecil tries to reconcile instead, Golbez threatens to kill his friends, hoping to make Cecil angry enough to finish him off in battle. That still doesn't work, and the party then rescues Golbez from being hurled into the Void. Afterwards, they finally convince him that true atonement is about living and doing good, not dying.

There is a strong case to be made for Rorschach trying this in Watchmen. Alan Moore himself has stated that Rorschach had a king-sized death wish, and he knew that Dr. Manhattan would try to stop Rorschach from revealing the truth. Rorschach may not have engineered the scenario, but he willingly embraced death.

The entire plot of the .hack//G.U. Games games basically revolves around this. The Chessmaster Ovan effectively manipulates Haseo into killing him, because only if Ovan's (extremely high-level) PC is killed by Haseo's special PC, his special ability will be activated, resetting the entire internet and cleansing it of the corruption that has been sending gamers (including Ovan's own sister) into a coma. BTW, this was not his first plan.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit:
Done by a hostage-taker as a Mind Screw revenge on Detective Benson. His last words were "There are no bullets in my gun."
In "Blast", a junkie robs his father's bank and accidentally shoots his father in the process. As he heads out to commit Suicide By Cop, Dr. Warner shoots him in the leg with Stabler's backup weapon, allowing the SWAT team to restrain him.
A dirty cop does this when Elliot (who was undercover) is revealed to be a cop. Cragen implies that he did it because his co-conspirators would have done much worse if they'd found out he even accidentally brought a cop into their operation.
In "Father's Shadow", a young man who has taken several hostages, and is therefore surrounded by sharpshooters and police, finds out his father is a rapist who attacked, among others, the hostage-taker's own sister. He deliberately steps into range of the shooter, but Olivia, empathizing with him, steps between him and the window to block the shot and eventually talks him into surrendering.
One suspect in the attempted murder of a young girl turns out to be Elijah, a 30-year-old ex-child soldier originally from Uganda. He is eventually found innocent, but the police investigation alerts the International Criminal Court to his whereabouts, and the US plans to deport him in cooperation with the UN. When Elijah finds out, he first attempts to take hostages, then grabs the gun of a federal agent, forcing them to shoot him rather than go back to his country.
Just before he dies, Elijah tells his friend, the young girl from the original case, that he wanted to die not just to prevent his own suffering but also to make people see what he and others like him had lived through.
The suspect in "Burned" attempts this after setting his ex-wife on fire because he feels guilty about the effect his actions will have on his daughter. The SVU anticipate this and Olivia promptly shoots him down...with plastic bullets.
In "Surrendering Noah", sex trafficker Johnny D. initially does well at trial, but when a group of his former Sex Slaves hold up well under cross-examination and it becomes clear he's going to prison, he grabs a bailiff's gun, shoots the judge and runs out of the courtroom, where he is immediately shot dead by Amaro. At the end of the episode, Benson reflects that Johnny must have known he couldn't possibly have fought his way out.

In Guild Wars 2, after being tricked by Gavin into helping him snare the white stag and being left for dead, the sylvari player character manages to rescue it from a Nightmare Court camp. When his allies raid the Grove, but fail to steal the stag back, Gavin, realizing he's as good as dead no matter whether Caithe or Faolain get their hands on him, challenges the player character to a Duel to the Death so he can at least gain a quick and honorable death from someone he respects.

About two-thirds of the way through Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Gellert Grindelwald commits suicide via Voldemort. The former had come to his prison cell that he'd been looked in for over fifty years looking for the Elder Wand. Grindelwald laughs in his face, refuses to tell him where it is, and then says "I welcome Death". At that point, he was about 115 years old and the only person he'd ever loved had died about a year previously so he lost the emotional will to stay alive.

Fearing she will lose control of herself and attack those she is supposed to protect, she attacks Dante to goad him into killing her. Fortunately, Dante has faith in her humanity and refuses to kill her.

The finale of Tokyo Ghoul √A implies that Kaneki intends to do this when he walks into the CCG base camp carrying Hide's body. The scene fades to black as he stands in front of Arima, with the sound of the Investigator opening his Quinque case. What happened to him is never shown, and since the anime is an Alternate Continuity, it's unclear whether he died or experiences the same fate as his manga counterpart.

The 1954 Tom and Jerry short "Downhearted Duckling" had a duckling repeatedly try to get Tom to eat him, believing himself to be too ugly to deserve living. Tom was happy to oblige but Jerry wasn't, so he kept trying. Until a lovely female duckling told him how cute he was, which made him regain the will to live. They walked away together and very happily, leaving the rather surprised Tom and Jerry behind.

Magic Knight Rayearth, which turns out to be from the POV of the "cops". The girls have been summoned to "save" Princess Emeraude by killing her, so she can be released from her duty as Pillar of Cephiro, in which role she has been gravely compromised since she fell in love with her Guardian, Zagato, and Cephiro itself started to die since she couldn't fully dedicate herself to it. Since the Pillar can't take their own life and nobody in Cephiro can harm them, this is the only option Emeraude feels she has left.

In Fire Emblem, expect to see recruitable units who start off as enemies to do this. Even when they have literally zero percent to hit or do zero damage to a character, the AI knows that they'll counterattack and kill them, forcing you to reset the game.
In Fire Emblem Gaiden, Emperor Rudolf fully expects to die by his son Alm's hands as part of a years-long Zero-Approval Gambit to unite Valentia under the latter. In both the original game and the remake, Shadows of Valentia, he will never attack Alm even if you initiate combat yourself.
A heartbreaking example is heavily implied in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War with Arvis. By this point, Arvis has long since crossed the Despair Event Horizon, and while helping a retainer flee with some children he freed, he gives said retainer the Tyrfing, with the all but explicitly stated instruction to give it to Seliph, whose father, Sigurd, Arvis killed. When facing Seliph, he then mocks Sigurd's memory to his face. Kick the Dog? Maybe, but it's far more likely that he's deliberately goading Seliph to kill him and just end it already.
The chapter "Cog of Destiny" in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade puts the remaining Reed brother as the boss. If Lloyd was killed first, Linus will disregard everything, including his relation with his younger stepsister, so he can seek revenge. However if Linus was killed first, Lloyd stands at the Shrine of Seals just so he could be killed and be with his brother again.
A grand example in the actual story happens in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn when Sehpiran/Lehran manipulates everyone to start both the Mad King's War and the entire war between Begnion and the Laguz Alliance in order to wake the goddess, so he would finally die because the world would be destroyed. His last words are "At last... I'm dying."
An utterly heartbreaking instance of this happens in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright. Late in the game, Xander gets ready to strike you down, but his younger sister Elise jumps in front of his sword as he swings it, causing Xander to cross the Despair Event Horizon. The boss fight goes on, but Xander is weaker than normal and does not attack on his turn; he only wants you to kill him. Even worse, his conversation with Laslow and Peri beforehand implies that he was already thinking of going out this way, anyway.
One possible interpretation of the ending of the Blue Lions route in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. After Edelgard loses her war, her dreams, and her only friend Hubert (plus the possible deaths of any unrecruited Black Eagle who fought for her), Dimitri offers her a Last-Second Chance, but (after giving one last smile) she throws a dagger into his shoulder instead. Dimitri wastes no time stabbing her in the heart and killing her instantly.

When the police seem reluctant to shoot, he fires a shot into the air to provoke them. He is then shot by the police but survives.

Angel:
Faith attempts Suicide By Vampire Detective in "Five by Five."
Angel knew what she was doing because he once attempted Suicide by Sire.
Played for Laughs with The Groosalugg; after a lifetime of being ostracized by his people for being clearly part human (and Tall, Dark, and Handsome), he fought the greatest warriors and fiercest beasts in hopes of them ending his miserable existence but was so skillful that he defeated them all and was proclaimed the greatest champion in Pylea.

The Hazing: In order to complete the magic ritual to unleash his spirit, Professor Kapps needs to die. However, the rules of the ritual mean that it will not work if he kills himself. So, after reviving at the hospital, he murders several staff and patients, forcing the cop guarding him to gun him down. His last words to the cop are "Thank you".

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.:
In "Yes Men", Lorelei tries to goad Sif into killing her using a Post-Rape Taunt. As Lorelei had just verbally explained that she would rather die than go back to prison, this doesn't work.
In "Aftershocks", newly-transformed Inhuman Raina isn't satisfied with what she turned into and tries to goad a group of SHIELD agents into shooting her. She's rescued by Gordon, an Inhuman with teleportation powers before they can do anything. Later on, in "Afterlife", she tries to get Skye to kill her with her new earthquake powers. Skye, who has a personal history with Raina, is happy to oblige, but she is stopped.

In Prairie Fever, Preston attempts to goad Monte into shooting him; both because he wants to die, but also as part of a Thanatos Gambit. Although he looks like he is reaching for a gun, he is actually unarmed, and by shooting an unarmed man, Monte would be guilty of murder and hanged.

Looney Tunes:
In the cartoon Cheese Chasers, two mice, having eaten so much cheese in one massive binge that they feel they can't eat any again, decide that there's nothing left to live for and try to get a cat to eat them. The cat, suspicious that it's all a trick, grows paranoid and eventually decides to end it all as well. So he goes to a dog and asks him to kill him. The dog, in trying to figure out the whole situation, goes mad as well and chases down the dog catcher.
Another cartoon has a hen-pecked bird who wanted Sylvester to eat him, rather than put up with his wife for another day. Hilarity Ensues.

Tales Series:
In Tales of Symphonia, Zelos does this on one path, committing Suicide By Lloyd if Lloyd never truly grows to trust him as one of his True Companions.
In Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, Emil Castagnier (that is, Ratatosk), plans to fake possession by his Superpowered Evil Side and get the party to kill him so that he can become a Core to seal the Ginnungagap. It's half wanting to save the world and half guilt from learning that he killed Aster. It's up to the player to decide if he succeeds.

Jekyll: Implied when Hyde approaches a group of soldiers so they'll panic and shoot him. Given his demonstrated speed, he almost certainly could have charged down the corridor fast enough to kill them all, but instead walks slowly and pauses to taunt them - just killing some of their soldiers wouldn't have stopped the Institute, while if he's dead they no longer have reason to go after his family to control him.

This trope is at the center of the very first Callahan's Crosstime Saloon story, "The Guy With The Eyes." Said guy happens to be a seven-foot-tall pseudohuman cyborg whose mission is to investigate Earth and see if humans deserve to survive as a species. He's certain the answer from his Masters will be "no." But he doesn't want to see humankind wiped out, so he tells his story to Callahan and his regulars in hopes that they will kill him, and stop his information from being delivered.

Naruto:
Itachi Uchiha has an extreme subversion of Suicide By Cop... well, brother, anyway. He came up with a plan and waited SEVEN years before having his brother kill him in a blaze of glory. In those seven years, he did everything possible to drive the boy insane just to make sure he would kill him. The subversion is that he's ostensibly doing this for Sasuke's benefit and for other noble reasons, but his plan backfires spectacularly with nearly all of his goals save Sasuke's strength in ashes at this point.
Rin Nohara, doubling with Heroic Sacrifice. The Three-Tailed Beast had been sealed inside her by agents of Kirigakure and intended for Rin to return to Konoha, where the beast would break out and rampage, destroying the village. Instead, when Kakashi tried to kill one of the Mist-nin pursuing them, Rin chose to save her village from this fate by putting herself in the way of his attack, which resulted in both she and the Sanbi (temporarily, in the Sanbi's case - Tailed Beasts cannot truly die, being living chakra, though they take some time to reform after their host dies with the beast still sealed in them) dying and thwarting Mist's plan. Cue Obito undergoing a Face–Heel Turn out of grief over her death, and the rest is history.

In Borderlands 2, the Vault Hunters kill someone this way twice. One's a silly example, one is very much not.
The silly example involves Face McShooty, a deranged lunatic who for some reason desperately wants to be shot in the face, and proclaims this loudly and constantly until obliged.
In a more grim example, Angel chooses this over being used as a living power conduit by Handsome Jack.

Motive:
In "For You I Die", Dirty Cop Slater pulls his gun on Angie, saying that he won't go to prison. Angie realises that he wants her to shoot him (especially as he has just let a hostage go), and calls his bluff: saying this case has already taken too many lives and lowers her gun. Slater continues to advance, however, only to be shot by Vega.
The murderer attempts this in "The Vanishing Policeman"; firing shots into the air and claiming that he intends to kill another cop. Angie is able to talk him down and reveals that he was actually wielding a starting pistol.

The main character in Falling Down draws a water pistol during a stand-off, and is shot by a cop because other methods of suicide would result in loss of his life insurance policy.*This does NOT work in Real Life, because insurers will not pay benefits if a loss is incurred in the commission of a felony. Even using a fake weapon, making someone think you're trying to kill them is a major crime (not to mention several other crimes he committed before). While falling backwards, he notes that he would have won — he squirted the cop before getting shot.

In Les Misérables, Éponine attempts murder-suicide by National Guard when she persuades Marius to go to the barricade, then follows him there so they'll die together. This way, in one fell swoop she plans to end her own miserable life and take Marius with her so that if she can't have him, at least no one else will. Fortunately for Marius, she ultimately backtracks on the "murder" part by Taking the Bullet for him.

Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS: Season 3 has Ai trying to pull one of these after learning that his continued existence will lead to humanity's extinction, and Yusaku's death as he'd be caught up in it. Thus, he spends the season putting into motion a plan that would be so dangerous that Yusaku would have to stop him, crushing all his former allies and friends all the while in order to further motivate him to do so. And on the chance that his plan actually does succeed, it would still result in his death anyway.

In the anime version of Trigun, this is an interpretation of Vash's complete failure to say a word or make a move in his own defense while being lynched by the town that recognizes him as the Stampede, in the episode after he shoots Legato in the head. He wasn't actually catatonic, but he kept acting as though he was while they tied him to the back of a truck and dragged him around on his face.
Of course, Vash "disapproves of suicide more than anything," so if he is doing this it's probably subconscious.

The Jester role in Town of Salem wants to be lynched by the town in order to win, as being killed at night won't cut it. If lynched, they get to choose one player to be Driven to Suicide over the guilt.
The Witch actually has an achievement for getting three town members to die by mixing this trope and Psychic-Assisted Suicide, by forcing them to visit the Shell-Shocked Veteran when he is on alert. (A veteran on Alert kills everyone visiting him.)
A common tactic for the Coven Leader is to send her enemies into the Medusa, who is the Veteran's Evil Counterpart, which also mixes this trope with Psychic-Assisted Suicide.

When she learned it was terminal, she propositioned the man she loved (who knew she was sick but not how much), and died happy.

Deconstructed very tragically in The Dresden Files in the thirteenth book, Ghost Story. During the preceding book, Changes, protagonist Harry Dresden had been rendered completely incapable of rescuing his daughter from the vampiric hordes who kidnapped her, so he essentially said, "Fuck it, I'm throwing morals to the wind", and made a deal with the (metaphorical) devil, getting power enough to save her — and a gnawing corruption that eats at his soul, warping his desires into cruel, monstrous whims. He knew, however, that this would happen, and Ghost Story reveals that he made pre-emptive arrangements for his own murder. The deconstruction comes in what happens after he dies, and his ghost is forced to roam the city he left. The thing about being desperate enough to commit suicide is that you don't consider how it will affect your friends...and if you're a hero so renowned that most monsters won't threaten your city while you live, things get even worse...

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:
After the Gladiator Games champion Agronak gro-Malog learns to his horror that he's the son of a vampire, he succumbs to depression and asks the Player Character to kill him when they next fight in the Arena. And, well, there's no other way out of the ring...
In the Shivering Isles expansion, the perpetually depressed Hirrus Clutumnus hires the Player Character to assassinate him, since he doesn't want to end up haunting the Hill of Suicides with the ghosts of others who ended their own lives.
If you are foolish enough to attack Sheogorath in the Shivering Isles, he will teleport you to a spot miles above the main island, leaving you to fall to your death. This just automatically happens (like a cutscene) and there is no way to avoid it.
Should you resist arrest, the guards will fight you to the death. As they are five levels above the player by default, trying to fight back is usually suicide unless you turn the difficulty way the hell down.

Discworld: Just one of the varied and sundry ways to commit suicide in Ankh-Morpork. Rarely on purpose, though; in Ankh-Morpork, committing suicide is so easy that most conventional forms of accidental death take weeks of planning by comparison. Some people do it just by going out for a drink since some neighborhoods or bars in Ankh-Morpork are so dangerous that any death in them is ruled a suicide by the authorities.

In Y: The Last Man, Alter does something similar, murdering Agent 355 in order to bait Yorick into avenging her. Yorick sees through this and leaves her alive. The twist is Alter insists her death be at a man's hands — a good deal of the conflict in the series wouldn't have happened if she'd just been alright with letting another woman kill her.

In Green Rider, Jendara, knowing that her Heel–Face Turn was not going to redeem her in the eyes of her former colleagues for having turned traitor in the first place and that the traditional punishment for a member of her order who commits treason is to be slowly tortured for weeks and then get staked out for the vultures - while still alive, deliberately attacks the Weapons who try to take her prisoner, forcing them to kill her quickly.

Final Fantasy XIV has the Twelve, Eorzea's gods. They were created out of people the Big Good knew before the Sundering (the big backstory apocalypse) to watch over the new sentient races. By the time of the "Myths of the Realm" raid series (taking place after the Warrior has, among other things, defeated the being that prompted said apocalypse and stopped the destruction of the universe in the process) they've decided that the world doesn't need them anymore and is capable of thriving by itself. As such, they ask the Warrior to defeat them in battle so their aether can return to The Lifestream and help the new world live.

Angeal from Crisis Core does this - by turning into a One-Winged Angel and attacking Zack. Before resorting to turning into a spectacularly ugly chimaera he tried to get Zack to kill him as part of their oath to "destroy anything that threatens the world." Zack had attacked him a while back when he believed he'd murdered his own mother, but since that and his going AWOL were really the only things to make Zack think he'd gotten himself an Evil Mentor and he'd just been disabused of the mistake, it didn't go well. Afterward, they have a heartfelt Take Up My Sword—the iconic buster blade Zack passes on to Cloud at the end of the game.

After traveling the world for almost 150 years, he returns to his hometown of Mill Valley so that he can die where he was born. Several days after his arrival, many of the townspeople turn into monsters and kill him in a very brutal fashion. Bendictson was either unwilling or unable to kill himself.

Features heavily in the backstory of Dag Redwing from The Sharing Knife. After the death of his command and first wife he has a multi-purpose prosthetic hand built and not only returns to the hunt for life-draining malices but goes for the kill personally whenever possible. Many see this as courage or vengefulness, but he confesses to his second wife that he spent almost all that time one bad night from driving a partially enchanted knife into his own heart rather than going through the trouble of trying to drive fully enchanted ones into malices and more-than-half-hoping they get lucky.

Done during the Dark Brotherhood quest line. After selling the player out to Commander Maro and being literally burned for it, Astrid uses her own body as a Black Sacrament and put a contract on herself.
The Old Orc has a variant: he simply asks you to kill him in combat while he fights to the best of his ability since he has Nothing Left to Do but Die and his religion expects him to have an honorable death in combat rather than succumb to old age.

Happens in Stress Relief - a RWBY fic focused on the Crack Pairing of Jaune and Cinder. In something of a benevolent Thanatos Gambit, Cinder arranges a scenario in which she gets killed by Pyrrha. Falling in love with Jaune has caused her to abort her original plan, but simply running away or committing suicide would likely cause Salem to seek Jaune out for foiling her scheme.

In the 1987 Spider-Man vs. Wolverine one-shot, Spider-Man gets embroiled in a case in East Berlin when Charlie, a female ex-KGB agent and longtime friend of Wolverine's, goes on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against her KGB superiors. Not wanting to be tortured by the KGB, she wants Wolverine to kill her. Spider-Man intervenes (he thinks that either Charlie or the KGB had killed Daily Bugle reporter Ned Leeds) and he and Wolverine fight each other furiously. Dazed after the fight, Spider-Man feels a hand on his shoulder and his Spider-Sense tells him an attack is coming. Thinking it's Wolverine, he turns and hits the person, hard. Turns out to be Charlie and the blow is lethal, which is what she wanted. Suicide by superhero. To this day, this one-shot remains the only time Spider-Man has ever killed.

Wagon Train: In "The Orly French Story", the title character, a bank robber, is captured by a Bible-quoting marshal, Jason Hartman. Hartman tries, throughout the episode, to get French to repent for his sins. French refuses and offers to split his hidden loot (which, while travelling with the wagon train, they are approaching) with Hartman if he'll let him go. Hartman refuses, but when they find the loot he starts to waver at the sight of so much money. He knocks French out and takes off with the money. A posse from the wagon train goes after him. They come back with Hartman, dead, and French learns that when Hartman drew his gun on the posse, it wasn't even loaded, making it clear he regretted his momentary lapse. This inspires French to take responsibility for his crimes.

Father Brown:
The kidnappers in "The Great Train Robbery" plan to do this when Inspector Mallory surrounds their house with armed police. They even unload their guns so they cannot accidentally harm any policemen in the process. Fortunately, they are talked out of it.
An indirect example in "The Grim Reaper": Dr. Crawford confesses to a murder he didn't commit because he's Secretly Dying of cancer and thinks that execution would be a more humane death. Father Brown convinces him not to burden his wife and unborn child with such a legacy.

Les Enfants de Prométhée has a particularly tragic example in that the attack itself wasn't intentional: in a world where all of society is built on the Pillars' Elemental and Psychic Powers, Cancellers are locked up and raised in secret because their abilities are considered too dangerous by the Federation. Everything goes downhill when every Pillar in Primville suddenly loses their power at the same time, all because one Canceller lost control of her powers. Said Canceller tries to escape at first, but when a policewoman tells her all about the damage she is causing, she begs the policewoman to kill her. She gets her wish.

During the final showdown in Den of Thieves, Merriman — having run of bullets — slams an empty magazine into his gun, making Big Nick think that he has reloaded. He then comes out and points the empty gun at Nick, forcing Nick to shoot him.

A drawn-out version in The Life of David Gale. In this case, Gale is on Death Row for murdering his colleague, both prominent anti-capital punishment advocates. He's innocent of the crime, but is executed anyway, to prove the point that sometimes, innocent people are executed. It's implied that he volunteered to be executed because his life had recently fallen apart after being falsely accused of rape, fired, and divorced.

In The Blacksmith's Apprentice Hiccup basically attempts 'suicide by dragon'; certain that Berk will never accept him after spending the better part of the last three years as basically the village thrall, disinherited by Stoick, and with nobody showing any real concern for him even after he is brutally assaulted by Snotlout and the twins, after he shoots down a Night Fury, Hiccup releases the dragon fully expecting it to kill him.

In Suikoden II, there is a difficult-to-do subplot involving a couple of gunners from Harmonia. If you are able to follow it all the way through to the end, it ends in a quick-draw duel between the two. As the loser lies on the ground dying, she laughingly reveals her gun wasn't loaded...

In the 2018 anime series of GeGeGe no Kitarō that's the fate of Kani-BÅ�zu, a yÅ�kai once tasked to protect a princess in ancient times. He failed and got sealed for centuries: upon waking up, he goes on a rampage in the close town of Sakaiminato, hoping for someone to put him out of his misery and lay him to rest along with his ward. KitarÅ� has to oblige his wish, but still turns his body into a bronze statue, places him to guard the princess' grave for all eternity, and has several statues of benign yÅ�kai cast to keep him good company.

In Dungeons & Dragons, sometimes a dragon will, after reaching its oldest and strongest age category, become so bored and world-weary that it decides that the world contains nothing that interests it anymore and goes on a kingdom-destroying rampage in order to provoke heroes to come and kill it.

Sin City:
In the first story, it's implied that Marv tries this after his Roaring Rampage of Revenge is over, figuring that the Roarke family will kill him anyway. Cops do come and shoot him, but he lives, only to face a Kangaroo Court. Marv doesn't care, though, because at this point, he's already won.
In "The Customer is Always Right", the main character has hired a hitman to kill her, so that she can avoid being tortured to death by a mobster ex-boyfriend.

A grand example in the actual story happens in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn when Sehpiran/Lehran manipulates everyone to start both the Mad King's War and the entire war between Begnion and the Laguz Alliance in order to wake the goddess, so he would finally die because the world would be destroyed. His last words are "At last... I'm dying."

Tal'dira in Solo Command was brainwashed into attempting to shoot down Wedge Antilles while on a mission. Unable to let go of his conditioning, he instead lowers his own starfighter's shields during the attempt, enabling one of his squadmates to kill him before he can complete his mission. Bonus points in that said squadmate used to be a cop before becoming a pilot.

Wrex takes a turn in Mass Effect 3 if you backstab him over the genophage — coming after you with no backup and, judging by how easily he goes down, no shields or barriers. Of course, he takes all your krogan War Assets out of the fight as a final "screw you", but it's pretty clear that after having the one person he thought he could trust shaft him, he's got no particular interest in making it off the Citadel.

Chicago P.D. had this occur in the Season 5 episode "Saved", when Hannah, a young girl who could turn to Voight for help, found herself trapped in a car dealership with her boyfriend, surrounded by Voight's team with backup, and heavily outnumbered. Despite Voight's best attempts to talk them out of it, Hannah's boyfriend convinces her to charge out into the crossfire armed, forcing the CPD to open fire. By the time Voight emerges himself, Hannah and her boyfriend lay dead from multiple gunshot wounds, much to Voight's grief that he couldn't save her.

Batman:
The Cavalier (Hudson Pyle) does this in the Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight arc "Blades", purposely charging the cops and getting gunned down.
In the Batman Confidential story arc "Lovers and Madmen", a brilliant but bored criminal named Jack attempts this after deciding that there's no fun or challenge in bank heists anymore, and he just wants to go out in a blaze of glory. In a twist of fate, he's saved by Batman, giving Jack a new purpose in life that ultimately ends up with him becoming the Joker.
This is in fact a part of the Joker's defining long-running "gag" with Batman (and by extension anyone who associates with him) as his obsession with the hero is fueled by his seemingly inherent incorruptibility despite clearly having gone through his own "one bad day", an event which should have made him exactly like the Joker. In his mind, disproving his incorruptibility through this trope would prove Joker was right to break and the world is a miserable joke where people only pretend it isn't.
The Joker attempts this again in Joker's Last Laugh. However, he calls it "Suicide by Super-Hero" since it was Nightwing.

Kamen Rider:
In Kamen Rider Ryuki, Asakura Takeshi (Kamen Rider Ouja) is outraged after failing to kill his long-time rival, so he charges a bunch of armed policemen without using his powers in what proves to be the last of his several fits of suicidal behavior.
In Kamen Rider Decade's Grand Finale Movie, Tsukasa (Decade), after having wiped out every other Kamen Rider, provokes his friend/possible Love Interest Natsumi (Kamen Rider Kivala) into attacking him, then throws away his weapon at the last second and allows her to run him through. He gets better, though.
In Kamen Rider Kabuto', this ends up being Tsurugi Kamishiro's response to realizing that he's actually a Worm - in fact, the same Worm that killed the real Tsurugi and his older sister. Tsurugi confronts Hyper Kabuto, and tells the latter to remember their mutual goal: "defeat all Worm." Kabuto obliges him.

One way to interpret the ending of All Quiet on the Western Front is that Paul willingly exposed himself to enemy fire, killing himself, although it could have simply been an accident. The text clearly stating that Paul stood up and is "very calm", as well as the fact that he has crossed the Despair Event Horizon by this point, point toward it being deliberate.

Kenzotul in An Outcast in Another World, an Elf wracked by grief due to his part in The Scouring, offers his life to Rob as atonement and puts him on the spot by doing so in broad daylight. Rob denies him, telling him that living his life to atone for his crimes would mean more.

In the Line of Fire: What Leary is essentially committing, as he surely knows he'll be shot by the police or Secret Service after shooting the president. He openly indicates this is his intent, saying he's willing to die if that's what it takes, and comes off as a death seeker at times.

Power Rangers Lost Galaxy (of all places): The Magna Defender, who is wounded, weak, and nearly powerless, tries this, telling Leo that he can gain Mike back via his death. He then draws his sword so that can "call it self-defense". (However, Leo does not, and later MD is able to do it via Heroic Sacrifice and save Terra Venture.)

Greed in Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), who intentionally picks a fight with and enrages Ed on false pretenses so the latter will kill him, as it is preferable to waiting around for Dante to re-seal him. It's also a narrow-focused case of Put Them All Out of My Misery, with the "them all" in this case being the other Homunculi. Throughout the fight he unsubtly shows Ed all the steps needed to kill a Homunculus so he would be ready to do the same to Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Sloth, Pride, Wrath, and ultimately Dante herself when the time came.
In the manga, Marcoh brings up the Ishvalan war in front of Scar in the hopes that Scar will lash out and kill him for his own role in it. Scar simply disfigures his face instead.
In the manga/Brotherhood timeline, it's rather heavily implied that Roy plans on deliberately getting himself executed for war crimes once he's achieved his political goals, and Riza's comment about following him into hell suggests that she wants to do the same.

Murdoch Mysteries:
An older Jewish doctor commits the Suicide by State variation in "Let Us Ask the Maiden". He shoots his fiancée's father in front of Detective Murdoch, Inspector Brackenreid, and a couple of constables, which means he gets the noose. He did it because his future father-in-law murdered his employee who was also his daughter's lover. He loved the girl more than anything and he wanted her to be free from both of them — her father and himself.
The Indian Poetic Serial Killer in "Werewolves" met his end when he tries to attack the investigators. Inspector Brackenreid shoots him dead with a rifle. He is quite shaken by it, claiming it is the first time he killed anybody on duty as a police officer.
In "The Artful Detective," one participant in a Deadly Game takes out a life insurance policy and doesn't arm himself against rival "contestants", implicitly letting himself be killed.

Gundam:
In Gundam Wing, this is how Treize goes out by goading Wufei into fighting him one last time. Seeing as he was on the cusp of obtaining peace but knowing that he isn't fit for that war, he decided to go out on his own terms. However, the action haunts Wufei for a good year.
Gundam X: After realizing that Nomoa Long had been lying to him that natural-born Newtypes don't exist and realizing just how much of an Unwitting Pawn he is, Carris Nautilus loses a mobile suit fight against Garrod, then points at him with an empty gun to trick Garrod into shooting him dead. It works insofar as getting Garrod to shoot him, but it's not fatal and Garrod immediately gets the ship's doctor to help. After a second attempt to go and freeze to death is interrupted, Garrod and Tiffa manage to convince him to atone by living instead.

This is more or less what Soichiro Yagami ultimately does in Death Note. After his daughter Sayu is abducted and used to blackmail him after he's forced to choose between surrendering the Artifact of Doom to the Mafia or sacrificing his life and hers, he chooses to take the shinigami eyes and halve his life. Turns out he didn't have that long to live, regardless.

The movie Jimmy Hollywood has a good subversion of this trope at the end - surrounded by cops after his vigilante spree and with things looking bleak, Jimmy - determined to make a big exit - decides to go out fighting; loading his guns with blanks, he aims to pull a Suicide By Cop. So he bursts out of the building, guns blazing... and nothing happens. Turns out his girlfriend told the cops his guns weren't loaded (ignore how foolish they were to take her at her word, even after his guns started going bang-bang in their direction).

NCIS:
Referred to by name, after Kate shoots a despairing man who was waving an (unloaded) handgun in a threatening manner. Unlike a surprisingly many fictional depictions of suicide by cop where it's shrugged off like any other killing, Kate is emotionally distraught afterwards. (Likely because she's Catholic and is rattled at having inadvertently assisted someone in something believed to be a mortal sin).
And averted spectacularly in another episode, "Murder 2.0", where the protagonists run into a hostage situation that looks to be the hostage-taker trying to commit suicide by cop... until Gibbs realizes that she's being forced by the "hostage" to "threaten" him with an unloaded weapon, and what's really going on is that the "hostage-taker" was being set up for a Homicide by Cop. Fortunately, it doesn't work.
A clear example of this occurs in "Dead Man Talking" where the villain, standing right in front of Gibbs, who has his gun trained on her, attempts to shoot Gibbs anyway and gets shot in the head.
Subverted in another episode, where a drugged-up guy pulls a gun on the team after being chased, only for Gibbs to come up behind him and pin him to a railing. From the other side.
Harper Dearing, the Big Bad of season 9 and the premiere of season 10. After Gibbs tracks him down alone, Dearing talks for a while. Then he goes for a gun on the windowsill and Gibbs knifes him.

Prison Break: Agent Mahone orchestrates one for Abruzzi, after luring him into a trap. Abruzzi comes out of a building surrounded by armed cops. Naturally, not wanting to go back to jail, Abruzzi chooses to start a gunfight that ends with him being riddled with bullets. Later, another agent confronts Mahone about this, pointing out that he could have easily staged a more controlled trap that would have avoided any needless bloodshed. Of course, there's a reason Mahone did it this way - the bad guys are blackmailing him.

The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed: Heavily implied to be the case with Levchenko, a member of the Black Cat gang and a former soldier who fought alongside Sharapov. Levchenko knows that the gang will probably be arrested after their confrontation with the police in the next morning, and despite keeping his mouth shut about it to the other gangsters, he makes it clear to Sharapov that he really doesn't want to go back to prison. And so, while all the thieves are being arrested, Levchenko makes a run for it and ends up being fatally shot by Zheglov.

In the cartoon Cheese Chasers, two mice, having eaten so much cheese in one massive binge that they feel they can't eat any again, decide that there's nothing left to live for and try to get a cat to eat them. The cat, suspicious that it's all a trick, grows paranoid and eventually decides to end it all as well. So he goes to a dog and asks him to kill him. The dog, in trying to figure out the whole situation, goes mad as well and chases down the dog catcher.

Kyo Kara Maoh!: Death Seeker Grisel Gegenhuber (aka Hube) got a yojimbo gig for a total asshole in hopes of this, after being sequentially 1) exiled in disgrace on a Snipe Hunt for being a reckless commander, although the person who started the war for dumb reasons got off scot-free; 2) almost died a lot and suffered from racism; and 3) met his true love (in what was destined to be a Mayfly–December Romance) and was separated from her for what he believed to be forever.
Unfortunately, as soon as he saw Conrad in town his goal became to get his homeland's famous swordsman to kill him, and to that end, he attacked the guy The Ace was protecting...then found out that that was the new king of his country, and he was now a traitor as well as an exile.

Takers had an inversion and then played it straight in another case. When one of the bank robbers is cornered by a detective he aims his gun at the cop but the cop just lets the robber shoot him. The cop has been caught taking a bribe and if he dies in the line of duty now his family will get his pension and life insurance money rather than see him go to jail. Later on, two of the robbers decide to walk straight at the SWAT team guns blazing rather than try to escape. They do not want to run and can't live with the deaths they caused.

The Elder Scrolls:
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind:
There is a quest near Suran where a tired and war-weary Orc asks you to do this. However, if you are not strong enough, he can easily kill you.
One quest in the Bloodmoon expansion involves an old man who feels like he has nothing left to contribute, and is only a burden on his family, so he tries to do this. The player character can either kill him or endure his attacks and talk some sense into him when he wears himself out.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:
After the Gladiator Games champion Agronak gro-Malog learns to his horror that he's the son of a vampire, he succumbs to depression and asks the Player Character to kill him when they next fight in the Arena. And, well, there's no other way out of the ring...
In the Shivering Isles expansion, the perpetually depressed Hirrus Clutumnus hires the Player Character to assassinate him, since he doesn't want to end up haunting the Hill of Suicides with the ghosts of others who ended their own lives.
If you are foolish enough to attack Sheogorath in the Shivering Isles, he will teleport you to a spot miles above the main island, leaving you to fall to your death. This just automatically happens (like a cutscene) and there is no way to avoid it.
Should you resist arrest, the guards will fight you to the death. As they are five levels above the player by default, trying to fight back is usually suicide unless you turn the difficulty way the hell down.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:
Done during the Dark Brotherhood quest line. After selling the player out to Commander Maro and being literally burned for it, Astrid uses her own body as a Black Sacrament and put a contract on herself.
The Old Orc has a variant: he simply asks you to kill him in combat while he fights to the best of his ability since he has Nothing Left to Do but Die and his religion expects him to have an honorable death in combat rather than succumb to old age.

Devil May Cry:
Devil May Cry 2: Lucia, the Deuteragonist of the game, attempts this when she learns that she is not her mother Matier's biological daughter but one of the artificial demons created by Arius. Fearing she will lose control of herself and attack those she is supposed to protect, she attacks Dante to goad him into killing her. Fortunately, Dante has faith in her humanity and refuses to kill her.
Devil May Cry 5: V's familiars do this near the end of the game. They reveal they're the physical manifestations of Vergil's trauma and throw themselves at Dante, knowing they can't win, in order to be killed and put an end to his suffering.

In Fate/Zero, this turns out to be Berserker's (AKA Sir Lancelot) motivation for obsessively targeting Saber. Since Arturia never punished Lancelot for his affair with Guinevere, Lancelot felt that the only way for him to be redeemed was Saber killing him as Berserker.

Aside from the possibility of making Superman anguish for derailing his plot to reestablish Krypton on Earth, this seems to be Zod's only reason for attempting to incinerate an innocent family at the end of Man of Steel. Superman has him in a necklock and can't get him to turn his eyes away from his would-be victims, forcing Superman to break his neck to stop his attack (which might have given Zod the last word anyway because Superman was trying so hard not to resort to lethal force and it freed Zod from his now-meaningless existence).

Code Geass has Lelouch and Suzaku playing this, with Lelouch as the victim and Suzaku as the cop. This is the last part of Lelouch's Thanatos Gambit. What's more, Suzaku becomes Zero (Lelouch's alternate persona) from that moment, so effectively, Lelouch does kill himself. He also uses one legend he created (Lelouch the tyrannical Emperor) to reinforce the other one (the freedom fighter Zero), pushing the entire world in the direction he wanted. At the same time, this is a suicide played straight, as Lelouch crafted it after falling out of hope following Nunnally's apparent demise and the Black Knights' betrayal.
Suzaku's general attitude is this. But between his absurd combat prowess and Lelouch giving him the Geass command to "live", he's never able to actually pull it off.
Another example is when the Black Knights betray Lelouch. Lelouch, still grieving over Nunnally's apparent death and now cornered by Schneizel, pretends to be a Manipulative Bastard and fakes a Kick the Dog moment with Kallen in order to get them to kill him and spare her. Then Rolo shows up.

A heartbreaking example is heavily implied in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War with Arvis. By this point, Arvis has long since crossed the Despair Event Horizon, and while helping a retainer flee with some children he freed, he gives said retainer the Tyrfing, with the all but explicitly stated instruction to give it to Seliph, whose father, Sigurd, Arvis killed. When facing Seliph, he then mocks Sigurd's memory to his face. Kick the Dog? Maybe, but it's far more likely that he's deliberately goading Seliph to kill him and just end it already.

Final Fantasy:
Angeal from Crisis Core does this - by turning into a One-Winged Angel and attacking Zack. Before resorting to turning into a spectacularly ugly chimaera he tried to get Zack to kill him as part of their oath to "destroy anything that threatens the world." Zack had attacked him a while back when he believed he'd murdered his own mother, but since that and his going AWOL were really the only things to make Zack think he'd gotten himself an Evil Mentor and he'd just been disabused of the mistake, it didn't go well. Afterward, they have a heartfelt Take Up My Sword—the iconic buster blade Zack passes on to Cloud at the end of the game.
Squall can attempt this in the D-District Prison segment of Final Fantasy VIII by insulting the prison warden during his Electric Torture. He doesn't succeed, but choosing the option nets the player a reward a little later on.
Final Fantasy XIV has the Twelve, Eorzea's gods. They were created out of people the Big Good knew before the Sundering (the big backstory apocalypse) to watch over the new sentient races. By the time of the "Myths of the Realm" raid series (taking place after the Warrior has, among other things, defeated the being that prompted said apocalypse and stopped the destruction of the universe in the process) they've decided that the world doesn't need them anymore and is capable of thriving by itself. As such, they ask the Warrior to defeat them in battle so their aether can return to The Lifestream and help the new world live.
In Dissidia Final Fantasy: Opera Omnia, Golbez attempts to do this repeatedly in the chapter "Light" over his guilt for the atrocities he committed while under the influence of an evil entity in his homeworld. When his brother Cecil tries to reconcile instead, Golbez threatens to kill his friends, hoping to make Cecil angry enough to finish him off in battle. That still doesn't work, and the party then rescues Golbez from being hurled into the Void. Afterwards, they finally convince him that true atonement is about living and doing good, not dying.
Sol in Final Fantasy Legend III is merged with Xagor and says, "I'll hold Xagor's soul for you, kill me!" to the party. Knowing that Xagor attempted to conquer Sol so the entity flooding the world would never stop, Sol also knew that he could get himself killed, and takes Xagor down with him and stops the entity in its last stage.

In The Chase (1994) the main character, after having run from the police for most of the movie, finally realizes it's not going to work, and that he's putting his hostage-turned-love-interest through a lot of danger. Consequently, he releases the (reluctant) girl and gets out of the car. A deep, slow-motion, underwater-sound scene follows, in which he looks around at the massive police force surrounding him and smokes a last cigarette. Then, suddenly, he makes a gun shape with his hands and rapidly points it at the cops. He is shot countless times and falls down, dead... and then he blinks and shakes his head: it was just an Indulgent Fantasy Segue, and he's still in the car.

Gundam X: After realizing that Nomoa Long had been lying to him that natural-born Newtypes don't exist and realizing just how much of an Unwitting Pawn he is, Carris Nautilus loses a mobile suit fight against Garrod, then points at him with an empty gun to trick Garrod into shooting him dead. It works insofar as getting Garrod to shoot him, but it's not fatal and Garrod immediately gets the ship's doctor to help. After a second attempt to go and freeze to death is interrupted, Garrod and Tiffa manage to convince him to atone by living instead.

Spider-Man:
The serial killer Sin-Eater, a.k.a. Stanley Carter, holds a boy hostage pointing a shotgun at his head, prompting the police to shoot him. It turns out he had done this intentionally as he had trouble readjusting to society after his release from psychological and medical care, was depressed and racked with guilt for the murders he committed as Sin-Eater, and he was still being haunted by his Sin-Eater persona. Before he dies, he reveals the gun was empty.
Tarantula tried to duplicate Spider-Man's powers through genetic engineering but instead became a giant spider. Saddened, he jumped in front of a volley of police bullets to kill himself.
In the 1987 Spider-Man vs. Wolverine one-shot, Spider-Man gets embroiled in a case in East Berlin when Charlie, a female ex-KGB agent and longtime friend of Wolverine's, goes on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against her KGB superiors. Not wanting to be tortured by the KGB, she wants Wolverine to kill her. Spider-Man intervenes (he thinks that either Charlie or the KGB had killed Daily Bugle reporter Ned Leeds) and he and Wolverine fight each other furiously. Dazed after the fight, Spider-Man feels a hand on his shoulder and his Spider-Sense tells him an attack is coming. Thinking it's Wolverine, he turns and hits the person, hard. Turns out to be Charlie and the blow is lethal, which is what she wanted. Suicide by superhero. To this day, this one-shot remains the only time Spider-Man has ever killed.
Spider-Man accuses the Green Goblin of trying this during the "A Death in the Family" storyline when Green Goblin puts Flash Thompson in a coma and then goes public with claims that Gwen Stacy died due to Spider-Man failing to safely catch her body when it fell off the bridge, and making claims of having sex with Gwen. We never find out from Norman if Spider-Man was right or not, though the ending implies that Norman has been/is contemplating when he opens his desk's drawer to reveal a gun in it.
In Spider-Girl, Normie Osborn, the MC2's Green Goblin, kidnaps and tries to get May (the titular Spider-Girl) to kill him, in a misguided effort to end the Goblin line once and for all.
Kraven the Hunter, having Came Back Wrong thanks to the resurrection process getting screwed up, cannot die unless he either kills "the Spider" or "the Spider" kills him. To this point, he attempts to goad Spidey into trying to kill him. He gets his wish in Hunted, but through Loophole Abuse.

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind:
There is a quest near Suran where a tired and war-weary Orc asks you to do this. However, if you are not strong enough, he can easily kill you.
One quest in the Bloodmoon expansion involves an old man who feels like he has nothing left to contribute, and is only a burden on his family, so he tries to do this. The player character can either kill him or endure his attacks and talk some sense into him when he wears himself out.

In Fairy Tail, heavily implied to be at least part of the motive of Big Bad Zeref. He's cursed so that he can't die of old age and that the more he cares about other living things, the more uncontrollably his magic kills everything around him. He spent the past 400 years hiding in exile while caring about life to minimize damage - then he met the protagonist, who he knows is the only one with the potential to be strong enough to kill him. Immediately afterwards he convinces himself to stop caring about life, leave exile, and start doing homicidal things - conveniently ensuring that the emotionally driven protagonist will feel motivated to put him out of his misery.

Fate/stay night:
Caster's master Kuzuki pulls this in the "Unlimited Blade Works" route when Caster is killed. Even though the heroes are willing to let him go (he's completely harmless to them), he still picks a fight he cannot win with Archer to "finish what he started", and is killed instantly.
It's not explicitly stated, but it's fairly clear this is what Caster did in the "Heavens Feel" route. Her Master and reason for living aka the aforementioned Kuzuki has just been killed and she's standing over his body, covered in blood and horrified when Saber and Shirou show up. When she finally notices them, she doesn't explain and, most tellingly, puts away her contract nullifying dagger and simply attacks. Normally she'd teleport out or something. But why bother?

In Dogma, the rogue angels Bartleby and Loki planned to become human, then absolve their sins through plenary indulgence, and die, thus getting back into heaven. Suicide would be a strict no-no, so Bartleby killed a bunch of people, planning to be cut down by the police as he exited the church (the murder coming before the absolution of their sins). On a larger scale, the villain Azrael plotted to trick God into being forced to destroy the entire universe, just so that he would no longer suffer in Hell.

Near the end of The Town, Jem decides to invoke this on a firing squad of cops rather than actually give up and return to jail. He's out of bullets, so he stands up, empty weapons aimed at the cops, and they do what they're trained to do and blast him.

Without a Trace: This happened in the 17th episode of the 2nd season; an Iraqi war veteran accidentally kills a woman in a bank heist he pulled to get enough money to keep his house from being repossessed and his girlfriend from leaving him. In the end, after taking the girlfriend and an FBI agent hostage in his home, he agrees to come out. He unloads the gun he's holding (out of view of the SWAT officers that surrounded his house) and walks right out the front door, pointing the gun at the officers, who open fire. The final scene is a Downer Ending: the FBI agent holding the hysterical, sobbing girlfriend back from running after him and into the line of fire, as the agent sheds a few tears himself.

The Punisher:
Subverted in one issue. After chasing the Big Bad all over the city, Frank finally corners him, only to have probably the only thing close to an honest cop catch up and point a gun to his head. Frank ends the Mexican Standoff by tossing the Big Bad his own gun. The Big Bad makes to shoot Frank, causing the cop to kill him instead.
It's heavily implied that the Punisher's own career is just one long case of this. He'll gladly take out as many crooks as he can, but it's really just a bonus until he finally gets killed in the process and rejoins his family.

Judge Dredd:
One citizen, having converted to the Cat'lic religion and given an implant designed to manipulate his behaviour to that of a fundamentalist for his wife, finds that after she dies, he has no reason to live due to having disowned all his friends at the wedding. Since suicide is a sin, he begins training himself to go up against the one man guaranteed to kill him, Judge Dredd. It's subverted, though, as Dredd manages to arrest him and arrange to have the implant removed so that the man can serve his cube sentence, for which he is grateful.
Played straight by several other citizens. A particularly depressing example was a young pro-Democracy terrorist who wanted to reform, but his comrades killed his lover and put a hit out on him. After disposing of his former allies he turns his gun on Dredd hoping to get killed. His wish is granted.

Monster Johan loves this trope. He tells both Dr. Tenma and Anna to shoot him in the head pretty much whenever they meet. He wants Tenma to kill him because it would mean making him admit that all life is not equal, and the implication is that he's so far gone that the only way he feels he can die is by making another person have to do it.

Blake's 7. In "Time Sqaud", Cally is introduced as the Sole Survivor (due to her alien biology) of a planet where the Federation wiped out La Résistance with biological weapons. Due to a combination of Survivor Guilt and You Can't Go Home Again, she plans to attack the nearest Federation base and destroy everything she can until she's killed. "There will be companions for my death." The arrival of Blake gives her another option, and she becomes the final member of the Seven.

Walt's plan of getting rid of a well-armed street gang in Gran Torino is to psych them into gunning him down in full view of the neighborhood. Presumably, the neighbors would be inspired by his courage and come forward as witnesses instead of being scared into keeping their mouths shut, like they did with the gang's other crimes. To do so, Walt makes a racket calling them out, including mentioning one of them raped his own cousin to prove a point, stuff no one can ignore.

Person of Interest:
At the end of "Foe", the Villain of the Week realizes what his actions have done to his family and points his empty gun at his wife, forcing Reese to shoot him.
In the Batman Cold Open of "Prophets", the POI is going to jump off a building after being caught in embezzlement and murder. Reese points out that his insurance won't pay his family if he commits suicide, but will if a cop kills him. So the POI tries to shoot Reese, who kneecaps him as usual.

Horatio Hornblower: In "Fire Ships", Hornblower must deal with a surly sailor of the week who tries to desert several times. Bunting actually wants to free himself but is deeply disturbed and sinks more and more. When he attempts to desert for the last time, Hornblower catches him and wants to have him court-martialed — which means he'll swing. Bunting considers it a cruel mercy, thank you very much, and a fate far worse than dying on the spot. He tries to escape and twists Hornblower's pistol, knowing that it will force Hornblower to shoot him. Poor Hornblower gets understandably depressed and goes into Heroic Blue Screen of Death mode.

Inverted and barely averted in Die Hard with a Vengeance, where the Mad Bomber Simon Gruber attempts to get the NYPD officer John McClane to commit suicide, forcing him to stand on a street corner in New York City's mostly-black Harlem neighborhood while wearing only a sandwich board with the words "I HATE NIGGERS" scrawled across it. Only the timely intervention of Zeus Carver saves John from a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown at the hands of a group of black teenagers, one of whom lets out a very loud "what the fuck?" upon seeing the sign. (This scene was actually filmed on location in Harlem; during production, the sign was left blank out of fear of offending the locals and provoking such a reaction for real, with the offending words added with CGI. The TV edit changes it to "I HATE EVERYBODY" instead.)

Beast Wars
There was some evidence that Rampage's evil behavior and focus on Depth Charge was, in part, an attempt to commit Suicide By Depth Charge to atone for that horrific behavior and all the lives he took when activated.
Similarly, while his main motive in protecting the valley with his life truly was the noble desire to save the lives of the proto-humans within, it's also implied Dinobot sought to die because his options upon returning to Cybertron were to remain Predacon and be imprisoned alongside Megatron or become a Maximal and give up his Predacon heritage. While he would have saved the valley even without such a motive because he's Dinobot, the last time they all had a shot at returning to Cybertron Dinobot opted to stay behind on the planet and fight and conquer until it inevitably killed him.

In the inaugural story arc in Solo Avengers, Hawkeye's old Evil Mentor Trick Shot torments the Avenger for months before finally tracking him down to an uninhabited island and challenging him to a duel. After Hawkeye deliberately missed, Trick Shot revealed he was dying of cancer and that all this was a ploy to provoke Hawkeye into killing him. He didn't want to die in some hospital bed, he certainly wasn't going to kill himself, and Hawkeye was the only one who could possibly best him in a contest of skill.

Blue Heelers did this when Constable Susie Rayner is introduced with her husband Brad, an ex-cop who was injured and wheelchair-bound on the job. As he spirals further into depression he lashes out at Susie, and Ben when he tries to help. Convinced they are having an affair, Brad steals Ben's service revolver and makes it as if he's going to kill Susie, forcing Ben to shoot him in self-defense. The subsequent court case looked into the possibility of Brad being suicidal and he wanted to be killed, and this was eventually ruled as the official cause.

Flashpoint: Given the subject matter, it was almost inevitable this would occur. The cops will attempt to hold off on shooting a subject if it appears that this is their objective, but if a subject is threatening someone else, they don't have a choice.
The subject in "Who's George" commits this so that his wife can get the money from his life insurance.
The subject in "Behind the Blue Line" is a veteran suffering intense Survivor Guilt who sets himself up to be killed by SRU because he can't take it anymore. The event triggers a brief Heroic BSoD for Sam, who had thought he had talked the subject into surrendering.

One possible interpretation of the ending of the Blue Lions route in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. After Edelgard loses her war, her dreams, and her only friend Hubert (plus the possible deaths of any unrecruited Black Eagle who fought for her), Dimitri offers her a Last-Second Chance, but (after giving one last smile) she throws a dagger into his shoulder instead. Dimitri wastes no time stabbing her in the heart and killing her instantly.

The Arishok in Dragon Age II pulls this off by staging an all-out attack with the Qunari on Kirkwall. The demands of the Qun mean he can not return to Par Vollen without the Tome of Koslun and the thief who stole it, but he's become so disgusted with Kirkwall society that he can't make himself stay there any longer. He sees his death as the only way out of fulfilling his obligations.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
Anya attempts Suicide By Slayer in "Selfless" as she can't cope with the guilt of the wishes she's granted since becoming a vengeance demon again.
In "Angel", Angel pushes Buffy to kill him after she finds out he is a vampire.

By the end of Dead Island, Jin has gone completely loopy, after being gang-raped and having to remain surrounded by the worst criminals in the world, who make it clear their intentions for her, she's basically Driven to Suicide. She angers Ryder White, releases his infected wife, and when she bites him Ryder shoots and kills Jin.

Beelzemon of Digimon Tamers attempts this; during his Villainous BSoD, he walks up to a group of Digimon whose friends he'd slaughtered earlier and stands there. Eventually they notice and attack him, and while he's obviously in pain, he doesn't even try to fight back despite being able to kill them all in seconds. After they spare him and leave him for dead he simply lies there, and when Renamon and Rika show up looking for him he essentially tells them to let him die.

In Convergence: Crime Syndicate #2, Owlman allows himself to be killed by the Justice Legion's Wonder Woman. He knows his city will be destroyed if the Crime Syndicate loses their battle, but he's doing it because he believes Metropolis doesn't deserve to live for executing Superwoman. Sadly, he only just realizes Superwoman survived as Wonder Woman breaks his neck.

In NieR, the final battle between Nier and the Shadowlord ends like this, after Yona's Shade chooses to commit suicide rather than forcibly inhabit the body of Nier's Yona. The Shadowlord promptly falls over the Despair Event Horizon and continues savagely attacking Nier, but with nothing left to live for, it's clear he just wants to die. As his health bar shrinks, more elements of the background music fade out until there's only a Nostalgic Music Box playing, and when he's finally defeated, the Shadowlord simply slumps to the ground, waiting for Nier to finish him.

Star Wars Legends:
Lumiya receives this via Luke in the novel Sacrifice. An interesting subversion in that she didn't really seem to have any wish to die and simply felt she'd played her part. Jacen Solo even refers to it as 'Suicide By Skywalker.'
Tal'dira in Solo Command was brainwashed into attempting to shoot down Wedge Antilles while on a mission. Unable to let go of his conditioning, he instead lowers his own starfighter's shields during the attempt, enabling one of his squadmates to kill him before he can complete his mission. Bonus points in that said squadmate used to be a cop before becoming a pilot.

In Bulworth, the title character purchases a $10 million life insurance policy, then places a hit on himself to be performed within the next two days. He then tries to ruin his image by being completely unrestrained in his political opinions to give plausibility to his assassination. Ironically enough, this ends up working in his favor, and when he tries to call off the hit, he finds that his contact to the mafia suffered a heart attack.

Short Time inverts the trope in a unique way: the main character, Det. Burt Simpson, is mistakenly told he has a terminal illness and has two weeks to live. Only a week away from retirement, he puts himself in ever-riskier situations in an attempt to get killed in the line of duty, as his police life insurance gives a richer payout than his normal life insurance, but only works if he dies on the job.

He tries suicide by cop, running at a donut shop full of cops with a shotgun and mask, but is intercepted by Joe, who is attempting suicide by criminal, and they spend two minutes trying to get the other to shoot them.

One episode of Harukanaru Toki no Naka de - Hachiyou Shou (and the manga story it was based on) involved Yorihisa's childhood friend/rival, a Nue, kidnapping Akane to force Yorihisa to go after him — it is made clear that he has no interest in Akane herself as he promises to set her free once Yorihisa arrives. The Nue is eventually revealed to have been poisoned by a member of the Oni clan, with the poison gradually driving him mad and causing him to turn into an uncontrollable monster. He guessed (correctly) that Yorihisa will choose his current duty over his past connections and save Akane at all costs even if it means killing his friend. Tear Jerker ensues.

You leave a videotaped farewell message to the loved ones then proceed to confront the police with a gun in your hand ready to shoot and have the incoming fire trucks ignore you in favor of the distant wildfire you accidentally set earlier.

Diagnosis: Murder: Subverted in at least one episode: the bad guy has a degenerative disease not covered by insurance (pre-existing condition) and spends the entire episode goading Steve into killing him. It is implied that part of Steve's refusal to do so is because the villain went a bit too far. Good Is Not Nice, perhaps?

Babylon 5:
Centauri nobleman Urza Jaddo challenged his longtime friend Ambassador Londo Mollari to a Duel to the Death in one episode to save his family from a charge of treason levied against him. This was a justified example: because of the rules and customs of the duel, the "winner" had to accept the "loser"'s family into their own "house"; by taking the rest of Urza's family into House Mollari, they would be spared Urza's dishonor. Londo reluctantly carried it out. Lord Refa, the one who accused Urza of treason, was not happy with this outcome.
On Capt. Sheridan's first day on the job, the whole crew of a rogue Warrior Caste Minbari ship tries to do this to spark a new Earth-Minbari War. Fortunately, Sheridan figures out what they are attempting and refuses to cooperate. Ultimately, they all commit suicide when they are cornered by a Minbari ship sent to capture them.
In a later episode, a Warrior Caste Minbari tries this again, by attacking Sheridan in person. Sheridan shoots him in self-defense, creating a major diplomatic incident, which is exactly what the Minbari in question intended. The Minbari witness who dishonestly claimed Sheridan was not acting in self-defense is eventually led to an engineered confession with Sheridan and Minbari Ambassador Delenn listening in, however.

Hill Street Blues: A Shell-Shocked Veteran is holding someone hostage with a gun on them and informs Officer Coffee that he is going to kill them unless the cop kills him first. He announces he's going to pull the trigger on one and starts counting down. Joe tries to talk him out of it but has no alternative but to shoot him at 'two'. All the more tragic for the fact that the two men had gotten to know each other over the course of the episode and built up something of a rapport, as Joe was a fellow Vietnam veteran.

In Whitewash, this is how Paul dies. He steals some of Bruce's dead wife's fake eyeballs and runs out of the house, causing Bruce to chase him in his snowmobile. Then he stops in the middle of the road. Because of the bad visibility that night, Bruce can't brake on time, and he slams into and kills Paul. He thinks afterwards that it was probably for the better, considering that Paul had previously attempted suicide by exhaust fumes.
