Current Events > 20 y/o Blonde Girl who told her bf to KILL HIMSELF SOBS in HORROR; found GUILTY!

(+) Yeah! (+)

20 y/o Michelle Carter Cried out in HORROR after she was found GUILTY of manslaughter in the 2014 death of her boyfriend after she sent him a barrage of text message encouraging him to kill himself!!

She broke down and lost her composure as a judge ruled that SHE was the cause for her 18 y/o boyfriend Conrad Roy III to kill himself.

She now faces up to 20 YEARS in prison..

Michelle was 17 when she sent him dozens of messages urging him to kill himself as Conrad was found dead filling his truck with carbon monoxide in a parking lot in Massachusetts 2014.

Judge Lawrence Moniz called her actions "reckless" as he said Michelle did not give a simple instruction of "getting out of the truck" but rather telling him to go back in

He said Michelle had a DUTY to call someone for help when they are attempting suicide and she did not as it was revealed Conrad has issues. But rather then tell Conrad to save himself, the judge said Michelle instructed him to get back in knowing it was a toxic environment.

Sobs and Cries were breaking out when the guilty verdict was read as the judge said Michelle can remain free on bail until her verdict as shes been banned from using social media.

Conrads parents thanked the police and prosecutors for giving her the harsh sentence as he said it's been a tough time for their family and wanted justice

The sensational trial raised questions of whether words can kill an offered a window into teen depression and suicide through text messages..prosecutors argue that this case should be a precedent for those that encourage others to kill themselves, whether online or in person.

The defense tried to argue that Conrad was suicidal already and that he made his own decision to take his own life as a suicide note was written by him that said "I love you and greatly appreciate ur effort and kindness towards me. I'll forever be in your heart and we will meet again some dday in Heaven. I'm sorry i wasn't the boy you wanted. I can't take the pain. I did this to finally be happy"

Michelle also claimed she was a troubled teenager who suffered depression herself. A psychiatrist even stated that Conrad has suicidal tendencies 2 years before his death as he wrote about Satan wanting him in hell and on a certain date, but the trial focused solely on the texts between them.

Michelle also took advantage of his death by holding a "fundraising" effort on suicide for her own benefit..

Do you think Michelle deserved prison for this? let's see what people think

Michelle - Prison bound

she looks like cara delevingne.

i'd fuck her.
---

I hate the girl for what she did.

But I hate the guy even more.
---

put toothpicks under each one of her toe nails and force her to kick a wall

every day

for the next 20 years

and even then she's still getting off easy
---

She's going to get out of prison at 40 years old because of text messages she sent when she was 17...
---

I hope its life in prison
---

I'm kind of wondering what kind of precedence this sets as texting becomes more and more prevalent for kids and society?
---

20 years seems excessive. I would say no more than five.
---

Wow that 5 head. But I think more than 5 years would be a bit harsh. Hard to have sympathy for the guy when he could have just blocked her messages. She was obviously mean spirited and a total bitch. He should have just cut all ties and seek some therapy because he was obviously suicidal
---

Fair next

This is a sad story all around tbh.

I said in the other main topic on the verdict she should be institutionalized instead..

I still stand by it. Rehibilitaion for her > Prison.

I agree

I'm all for more harsh penalties, but this isn't a case for one. She should serve time, IMO, but not that much time.
---

A couple of years in prison is suitable in my opinion. Do to her age.

Looks like sentencing isn't until August 3rd. She could get "up to 20 years" but probably won't get close to that.

My guess she'll get maybe 10-15 years with parole being 5-7 years.

We have to remember that he was already suicidal. She was a bitch about it. But he would probably had killed himself anyway. No excuse for her behaviour. She deserve a few years in jail. But not a murder sentense.

what conviced me that if she gets 20 itll be fair was stuff like " you need to do it " and when
she told him to get back into the truck
---

Who let the rancorous dorks out
---

Hey now. Don't be a white knight. Apparently that's what being rational means.

Prison isn't for reform apparently, it's just to fucking punish her CUZ
---

looks like the majority said a long one
---

I thought it was a bit harsh at first until I actually read the texts. Jesus Christ...
---

Girl tells boyfriend to kill himself. Guilty of murder.
Cop shoots unarmed black man. Not guilty.

>_>

this is more so in line with what i think. she probably has issues herself that she needs to work out.
---

It's always funny to see how childishly harsh CE wants the legal system to be.
---

She probably shouldn't get anymore than 5 years, and should probably have to get some sort of mandatory counseling too.

Duran in here acting like he just went through a bad breakup lol

The sentencing thoughts are maybe reasonable.

The hard to have sympathy cause he didn't block her shot is moronic.

In the movie, that bitch gonna be played by Chloe Grace Moretz

She likely needs psychiatric help alongside jail, but it is certainly warranted.

no, i'm acting like putting this pyscho bitch away for as long as possible is the correct ruling and the people who think otherwise are fucking ridiculous

She didn't force the guy to do anything. I'm shocked that she was convicted at all.

She practically did. She manipulated him into following through with it, when he bailed on the attempt. he was vulnerable and crying out for help, and she abused the trust placed in her.

She is directly responsible for his death, and I truly can't see how any could claim otherwise after reading the texts she sent.

i dont think they did

He killed himself. It's right there in the sentence. You don't have to make detective to find the culprit.

This shit is gonna lead to shitty people putting themselves down in an effort to get back at people. He could have blocked her or ignored her calls. If ____ told you to jump off a bridge, would you? Yeah, that logic. The woman is mean but it isn't and shouldn't be illegal to be an asshole.

People with mental health issues view things differently. Your example is irrelevant.

Fair but the guy is an idiot as well
---

Just wait. Simply hurting someone's feelings will eventually be a crime itself. Work on your Care Bear stare, guys.

Jesus. the number of people ITT who don't understand mental illness and actual suicidal depression is actually disgusting.

Also, if the genders were reversed, CE would be out for blood if a guy encouraged his girlfriend to kill herself to the level this girl did.
---

From a legal POV this is a pretty bad/crazy ruling. Not sure why she was charged with involuntary manslaughter or how a jury convicted her of it but I think she will appeal and/or try to get it retried and I would be surprised if a higher court doesn't reverse. Not sure how causation was argued but from a basic understanding there are some issues and the result is pretty surprising. Also, IMO the prosecutors should not stretch law this much to win a case.
