- In July of 2017, Michelle Carter was convicted of involuntary manslaughter after sending her boyfriend Conrad Roy inappropriate text messages. The shocking case has raised a lot of questions about free speech, the role of technology in mental health, if a person can commit a crime through words alone, and the responsibility to help those in need. This video covers the Michelle Carter case and the text messages that were used as evidence in the trial.

She should have been given 20 years plus.She told him to get back in the truck, after he got scared and exited the truck! She toyed with his emotions.
Cold hearted dark soul
I think encouraging a depressed person to commit suicide should carry longer than 12 months. And the fact she was telling him to delete her texts indicates she knew what she was doing was wrong.
A year? These sentences need to be deterrents.
Terrible parenting....that's the root cause of both of these lost lives..
You really have a way about you that makes your videos and coverage very different to some other channels. Thank you for what you do.
Thank you! I appreciate you saying that!
I show the trailer for the show on Hulu about this case. It was certainly intruiging but I much prefer learning the true, un-dramatized version of stories like this. Anyways, after a couple articles, I got on youtube and searched for a good video breakdown and yours was exactly what I was looking for. I think your channel deserves to be much bigger!! It's not much but you've got yoursellf a new fan and subscriber!! I genuinley wish I could like this video more than once!
I’m so happy you decided to subscribe - it means so much to me! Thank you for the kind words. 💛
Have you seen the show
I’m quite aware of what people can do with just their words. I think it’s probably one of the most coercive methods.
Truth.
Officially addicted to your channel..no gimmicks or crazy graphics..just simplicity and love your sympathy
Thank you! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos!
the sentence given was a dead slap in the face…
Here’s my thing the very people condemning her for her words were yelling, sending threatening messages telling her to go kill herself… She also was struggling with her own issues - what if she did go kill her self… Then they would be just as much to blame… 2 wrongs don’t make a right and for those thinking her sentence should be longer - keeping her in jail will not solve anything - she needs to be in a mental treatment facility…. He tried killing him self many times before she came along but it’s easier to blame someone else than your deceased loved one for their actions…
In no way am I condoning anything she did but I think we were dealing with two mentality unstable people - IMO they were both to blame in a toxic make believe online fantasy relationship…
@Missys Angels~Agreed, I hear you!
Just found your channel. This is my second video. I’m watching. While I’m cooking. Love your videos
I’m so glad to hear that! Happy to keep you company while you cook!

I really like your crime videos. I am a new subscriber. Looking forward to see what cases you explore.
This is the the grayest gray-area case that I know of. It's hard to know what's right... It shouldn't be a crime to just say something. At the same time, when you know someone is already hurting and considering suicide and you *keep* telling them to do it, is that right? Especially when you're someone close to the person, who they rely on for emotional support? And yet again, at the same time it has to be considered that she's a kid, struggling with her own issues. In the end, I think the judge made a good decision.
Armchair Investigator is super 🔥
And yet somehow telling somebody online to end their life isnt illegal, and is ignored so much that thousands of people die to suicide and a lot of them is because somebody encouraged them, i can't count how many times people have told me to unalive myself, but those people even when reporting to proper website/application owners and mostly game server owners, nothing was done. This needs to change so people like Conrad can be saved in time, and people like michelle can suffer the consequences of their actions.
Consistent manipulation is vastly different to some dickhead being unpleasant on occasion.
DSM5 is a highly controversial book
This definitely is a thinker!! It’s a gray area.
Words can be very harmful. There have been quite a few suicides because social media has been so cruel to a person they kill themselves. There is physical abuse and mental abuse. Mental abuse has a lot to do with words. If Michelle had called for help or told him to stop instead of telling him to get back in his car he wouldn’t have died. She knew what she did ended up with Conrad being dead. She sent a text to a friend telling them just that.
This was assisted suicide point blank and in every aspect and viewpoint. Saying otherwise is just not looking at the situation at all. A monster got caught, a good thing happened.
I feel like though it's very sad he used her need for a friend as free therapy and she buckled under hearing about him wanting to die for years. She's not in the right but i feel like he also used what she needed to manipulate her as well. Why didn't he see her more or talk about her very much? I feel like they could have been good for each other if he was actually into her. She tried giving him help for years. I'm not excusing what happened but he's not like the best guy in the world either trapping her inside his depression Don't tell anyone or I will never talk to you again. Pretty messed up
"Substance induced mood disorder with manic features"... you just rattled that off like it was nothing.🤯
😂😂😂
i seen something on tv about her she was very persuasive in her text's to him she pushed him to his death
10:08 can somebody type that letter out, its a bit hard to read
I wonder if she has the condition of Muchaesens by proxy , getting attention to herself by harming another ! May hear of her again in the future
Michelle was made, I suggest she has a narcissistic parent or two.
I’d be interested to hear what psychologists have to say about her.
What I want to know is, how did her eyebrows get so out of control?
