Sisältövaroitus: Itsemurha 18-vuotias Conrad Roy III löytyi kuolleena autostaan 12. syyskuuta 2014 Massachusettsissa Yhdysvalloissa. Conrad oli tehnyt itsemurhan, mutta poliisit huomasivat, että tämä oli ollut tiivissä ja erikoisessa yhteydenpidossa 17-vuotiaan Michelle Carterin kanssa. Nuoret olivat kaukosuhteessa ja oli selvää, että Michellen viesteissä oli painostava ja jopa itsemurhaan kehottava sävy, joten tapausta lähdettiin tutkimaan tarkemmin.

On July 13th, 2014, Conrad Roy III was found dead inside a car in a Kmart parking lot. The investigation of his apparent suicide and the evidence at the scene led officers to Conrad's most recent phone calls and texts. What they discovered shook them to their cores. The prosecution would argue that Conrad's girlfriend, Michelle Carter, coerced him into the act. Michelle's defense team would suggest the circumstances of his death to be complex and tragic but ultimately his own decision. Listen to Karla's and Michael's take on this baffling case that raised all kinds of questions about the impact and power of words and how much accountability they demand when a life is lost.

On July 13, 2014, Conrad Roy III, hooked up a hose to a generator inside his pickup truck and took his own life. But the suicide soon turned into a manslaughter case after investigators discovered sent texts from his then-girlfriend Michelle Carter encouraging him to kill himself.

Whoever said “words can't hurt me” never dated Michelle Carter!

Hulu's limited series The Girl From Plainville opens with two teenagers exchanging a series of text messages that crank up viewers' anxiety: "You're the best thing that ever happened to me," turns to "We should be like Romeo and Juliet at the end," which turns to "Are you gonna do it now?" It's a sequence that condenses what happened in the real lives of Conrad Roy III and Michelle Carter: Roy died by suicide and a judge convicted Carter of involuntary manslaughter for encouraging Roy, through texts and calls, to kill himself. Nicknamed the "texting suicide" case, Roy and Carter's...

We're BAACCKK! And we're bringing you an abandoned hospital that's overrun with ghosts, and a semi-controversial true crime story that's bound to start a conversation. Sarah starts the episode with the incredibly haunted Old Changi Hospital in Singapore, China. Build in 1935 this hospital soon found itself being used to harm people instead of treat them. Rumored to have housed POW's as well as the "notorious Kempeitai" (the Japanese military police, which also played the role of that of a secret police) a group that tortured and killed many people (including the POWs) imprisoned in the hospital. With a backstory like that, you KNOW its full of ghosts - and it is. Stephanie wraps up the episode with the true crime case that inspired the most recent Hulu drama "The Girl From Plainville". It's the tale of Michelle Carter and Conrad Roy III. You might remember this case because it was all over the media, because after Conrad took his life it came out that Michelle had been texting, messaging, and talking to Conrad about doing so. Some believe she did it maliciously and should be held accountable for his suicide - while others think this was a terrible story of two mentally unwell teenagers and an incredibly unfortunate situation. What do YOU think? Should Michelle take the blame for Conrad's death? Leave us a comment and let us know!

Six days after the death of her boyfriend Conrad Roy in 2014, Michelle Carter sent a text to her friend. “I just had it all planned out. Now I have to do something different, maybe something better, I just don't think that that's possible. He was my person you know?” she wrote.  Except in Michelle and Conrad's reality, their relationship was so private neither of their families knew they were even an item. It was a relationship that had blossomed almost exclusively on text. Thousands of them. Sent over years. Michelle & Conrad were texting the night Conrad drove into a Kmart car park, alone, in Fairhaven, - an hour's drive from where Michelle lived in Plainville -  and took his own life.  In today's episode, Gemma is speaking with political theorist Dr. Mark Tunick, about the now infamous texting-suicide case of Michelle Carter & Conrad Roy III.

Q&A on the Hulu series The Girl From Plainville with actor Colton Ryan. Moderated by Mara Webster, In Creative Company. The true story of Michelle Carter's "texting-suicide" case, exploring her relationship with Conrad Roy III and the events leading up to his death, and, later, her conviction of involuntary manslaughter.

Inspired by the true story of Michelle Carter's unprecedented "texting-suicide" case, The Girl from Plainville starring Elle Fanning is a Hulu miniseries that explores Carter's relationship with Conrad Roy III and the events that led to his death. Show creator Liz Hannah (The Post, Mindhunter) talks about tackling the true crime case: "I think the reaction from the media, the reaction from the general public towards Michelle and towards the case was very vitriolic, very much making her the villain... I'm very interested in the gray area of people and morality and ethics... as you start to peel away the layers, you realize just how little was talked about of what actually happened in this case, and what actually happened between these two people and the sort of mutual toxicity between the two of them." Liz goes on to talk about how to handle the pressures of writing: "I think I would say just don't take things too seriously, and that doesn't mean that you shouldn't take it seriously.... I take my job very seriously. I feel incredibly fortunate and incredibly lucky to have this job and to be able to tell the stories that I've gotten to tell, and hopefully will continue to tell. I think earlier in my career, everything felt like the beginning or end of the world, and that's just not a good way to be creative at all."

There are very in-depth discussions pertaining to suicide in this one, so if you're sensitive to anything of that nature, please feel free to wait until next week when we can have something a tad less triggering.That being said, this is a super controversial episode that keeps plenty of people divided. Is Michelle Carter the monster who relentlessly wore down a fragile young man, or was Conrad just waiting for somebody to help support him through his suicide attempt?We take a look into both sides of the story today and try to figure out where we stand.  Hunker down, it's going to get digital.Sources:https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/tasneemnashrulla/michelle-carter-prison-release-texting-suicidehttps://www.southcoasttoday.com/article/20150228/NEWS/150229439https://www.thecut.com/2016/02/conrad-roy-michelle-carter-c-v-r.htmlhttps://collider.com/i-love-you-now-die-review-michelle-carter-hbo-documentary/I Love You, Now Die DocumentarySupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/crimeandcryptids)

The gang is back in the Café this week chatting it up about another case. In 2018, Conrad Roy III (18 years old) took his own life by poisoning himself with carbon monoxide. During the investigation of his death, it became apparent that his suicide might well have been persuaded by his then “girlfriend” Michelle Carter (17 years old at the time). Despite only having met a few times in person, the two exchange a plethora of (over 65,000) text messages. Many of these text messages focused on Conrad killing himself. Can your words be enough to have you charged and convicted of involuntary manslaughter? Was she needy or just in need of attention? Was she rightly accused of a crime in the first place?

Today’s case has been described by the media as a very modern Romeo and Juliet affair, and like a Romeo and Juliet, this story ends in a lot of tragedy.

In 2014, Conrad Roy III took his own life via carbon monoxide poisoning. Upon further investigation, it turned out that his girlfriend Michelle Carter had spent a lot of time over text messages, encouraging him to do so. This went before a judge, the debate about who was responsible, and was this a "criminal" act or just something incredibly immoral, ensues. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/erin-heather/support

Michelle Carter, a young woman who encouraged her boyfriend to kill himself, was released from jail on Thursday, after just under a year behind bars.  Carter was just 17 years old when her boyfriend, Conrad Roy III, died by suicide after sitting in his truck, which was filled with carbon monoxide.  The evidence revealed that, in the weeks prior to that fateful day, Michelle Carter had sent Conrad text message after text message, urging him to kill himself.  However, despite what the media has widely reported, Michelle Carter was not convicted of involuntary manslaughter due to those text messages.  In fact, the Court determined that those text messages were not Michelle Carter's crime.  Instead, it was when Conrad Roy got out of his truck midway through his suicide attempt and was on the phone with Carter telling her that he did not want to go through with it where her crime was committed.  Instead of encouraging him to stay out of the truck, Carter confessed to a friend that she commanded him to get back in and finish things.  And, when she knew he was back in the truck and was dying, she did nothing to save him.  It was based on her commanding him to get back in the car and doing nothing to save him from the danger she created that the Court concluded Carter was responsible for Roy's death and why she was ultimately convicted of involuntary manslaughter.  Do you agree? Can someone's words alone over a telephone be the cause of another person's suicide?  Do words constitute "conduct" as required by the law in Massachusetts?  Does charging someone with involuntary manslaughter based on their words alone violate that person's right to free speech?  In the age of social media, should remotely coercing someone to commit suicide be illegal?  Attorney Rosensweig examines all of this and more in this episode. 

Convicted in 2017, Carter is serving a 15-month sentence for the manslaughter of Conrad Roy III. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is the case of the commonwealth of Massachusetts vs Michelle Carter. Michelle Carter was charged with involuntary manslaughter for causing the death of Conrad Roy III even though he took his own life.

I love you, Doccalo. I love you so do everything I tell you. 1) subscribe to this podcast 2) recommend this podcast 3) listen to this podcast and 4) LIVE! LIVE FOREVER! Angela and Bob hit up a “True Crime” documentary and revisit the director Erin Lee Carr who you might remember directed “Mommy Dead and Dearest” which we covered waaaaaaaaaaay back early in the bad audio era of the show. A severely depressed young man by the name of Conrad Roy III was found to have taken his own life in his truck outside of a K-Mart. Police later discovered an intense exchange of thousands of text with a girl named Michelle Carter. Suddenly, she is charged with a crime. We’re shooting the shit on the 2-part docuseries “I Love You, Now Die”. Did eyebrows really talk Conrad into taking his own life, or was Conrad just fulfilling a destiny he had long set out for himself? If someone told you to jump off of the Fish Island bridge and you did it, is that person is responsible? Also…what does that lady in the Patriots windbreaker think about it?

Jess lays out the case of Michelle Carter, a attention-hungry teen who coerced her sorta-boyfriend, Conrad Roy III, to take his own life. The first part of this case involves Marci and Jess doing terrible teen-style texting impersonations through the grim converations between the couple.

Danny, Sara, and Casey finally break down I Love You, Now Die, the new HBO documentary about the death of Conrad Roy III and trial of Michelle Carter. Or as you may know it, the texting suicide case. They discuss what everybody got wrong in the initial press coverage back in 2014, the wildest parts of the documentary (Glee, anybody), and the most recent updates on Michelle's jail time.

Erin Lee Carr has had a busy year, but I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth vs. Michelle Carter proves she's not too busy for nuance. The two-part documentary film, airing this week on HBO, looks at both sides of Conrad Roy III's tragic death, acknowledges the human instinct to find someone to blame, and takes us back to our own gusty teenage girlhoods. "Enjoyable" isn't the right word, but it's evocative for sure. Paul Schrader's late-eighties look at Patty Hearst and the SLA is less so, but we're not sure if that's down to a certain failure of nerve on the script's part, or the fact that we've just consumed too much Hearst-iana at this late date for any biopic to move the ball.

Social anxiety, depression, pressures of society and social media, all those contributed to Conrad Roy III's death. This was a very hard case to investigate and research, it 's sad all around. Most of the news focus' on Michelle Carter and her trial, laws, conviction but what about Conrad? He has been lost among all the noise of Michelle and her legal case. There is so much to this story that people don't know, read or look up for themselves. Most opinions are based on headlines, articles or news stories. In this episode Sean and I take a look at Conrad's actions leading up to the night he killed himself, text messages that were sent and not just the incriminating ones. These 2 teenagers were both mentally ill or unstable and the public should be talking more about helping kids like Conrad and Michelle.

In today's episode of Obsessively Outspoken, Yellow and I take a look at the case of Michelle Carter and the suicide death of her boyfriend Conrad Roy III. We also take a deep dive into whether or not the country was a better place to live in decades ago or is it a place of utopia in the current times of today? This led us to thoroughly examine the topic of children and ask the question...Is the earth really in jeopardy of subsequently running out of resources due to overpopulation? Enjoy!

In 2014, 18-year old Conrad Roy III was found deceased inside of his truck from carbon monoxide poisoning. Although on the outside this seemed to be a clinically depressed young man who died by suicide of his own volition, the text messages on his phone seemed to tell a very different story. Join us as we take a deep dive into those text messages found on Conrad's phone and discuss if his death by suicide was really the result of something much more sinister-and of course, punishable by law.   Learn more about your ad choices.

From 2012-2014,  Michelle Carter and Conrad Roy III texted each other thousands of times. They met, as it were, through absolute happenstance. In 2012, both families were vacationing in Florida, when Carter and Roy met. Turns out, they lived less than an hour away in their hometowns in Massachusetts. Still, being high school students, they rarely saw each other, and instead fell into an intense online relationship, trading FaceBook and text messages. Roy’s parents separated and then divorced. Roy fell into a deep despair and then tried to commit suicide. It was Carter who helped him through these difficult times. Carter encouraged Roy to receive treatment for his depression. His past battles resulted in four failed suicide attempts. Carter herself struggled with emotional issues. She fought depression, too, as well as eating disorders and extreme insecurities. She often cut herself when she was overly distraught. She craved the attention of more popular girls in school and became despondent over their lack of personal attention. Then, after a time of being Roy’s sort of personal sounding board, in which she kept him from veering to the dark side of his mentality, she then took up the cause of convincing him to kill himself. Why, exactly, she shifted is up for speculation. However, the evidence points to a perceived complex on Carter’s part regarding her insecurities of being unpopular. This is where the story gets a little bizarre, so bear with me while we delve into it. Of all the thousands and thousands of messages passed along between Carter and Roy, several happen to relate very closely to the TV show Glee, which ran from 2009-2015 and followed the exploits of high school students with a propensity for leaping into song. Okay, a little backstory: So, one of the show’s stars, Cory Monteith, died of a drug overdose in 2013. He was dating co-star Lea Michele at the time. The show, to give Monteith a proper memorial, filmed an episode devoted to the young star. The episode, entitled “The Quarterback,” aired on October 10, 2013. Carter, it appears, seemed to have drawn inspiration from this series of events, up to and including the idea that she take on the “grieving girlfriend” role after his death to elicit sympathy from other people in the classroom. In the wake of Roy’s death, Carter communicated with several friends, and a few of the text messages have an eerie closeness to the script from “The Quarterback” episode of Glee. Here’s one example. It’s a text message to friend Samantha Boardman six days after the death of Roy. I had it all planned out. He was gonna graduate Fitchburg and then when I graduated the college I'm going to, we would live happily ever after on the ocean somewhere, with our son Conrad the 4th. He knew too I didn't have to tell him. Now it's gonna be something different, maybe something better, but I just don't think that that's possible. He was my person. And another text the next day, this time to a different friend, but the wording and message is ostensibly the same. I just had it all planned out with Conrad. Now I have to do something different, maybe something better, I just don't think that that's possible. He was my person you know? Now, here’s the script from Glee. Rachel: I had it all planned out. I was gonna make it big on Broadway and maybe make a Woody Allen movie. And then when we were ready, I would just come back and he'd be teaching here and I'd walk through those doors and I would just say "I'm home" and then we would live happily ever after. Will: That's a good plan. Did you tell him? Rachel: I didn't have to. He knew. Will: And now what? Rachel: I don't know, something different. Will: Maybe something better. Rachel: I just — I don't think that's possible. He was my person. Play the video: https://youtu.be/9bMuEQxwkR0 Here’s another one. In a text to Boardman mere days after Roy’s death, Carter said: He was the greatest man I ever knew and I literally lived every day feeling like the luckiest girl in the world when I had him. In a December 2013 interview with Ellen DeGeneres, Michele had this to say about Monteith: I was so happy. He’s such a private person, and I literally lived every day of my life feeling like the luckiest girl in the whole world. I just thought he was the greatest man. A final example. In the same conversation with Boardman, Carter writes: One of the hardest parts is feeling like I'm gonna forget everything. And I don't want to. I can still hear his voice so clearly.   And the corresponding lines in Glee. Rachel says to Will:   I can still see his face and I can hear his voice so clearly. Do you think that I'll ever forget it? Because I'm afraid that one day I will.   Though a few others deal tangentially with Glee, the vast majority of text messages, especially the ones on the days of July 13 and 14, are harrowing for completely different reasons. July 12, 2014   He parked his truck in a KMart parking lot.   Conrad Roy III got out of the truck, trying to back out of the suicide attempt, when Michelle Carter -- an hour away at the time -- told him to get back in and finish the job. This moment, the judge concluded, is what made Michelle Carter’s actions a crime.   The trial took a week. Carter waived the right to a jury trial.   The defense argued that Carter’s reaction to antidepressants had affected her to a dangerous extent. Dr. Peter Breggin, who testified for the defense, “said Ms. Carter was ‘intoxicated’ by antidepressants, which she first started taking at 14, causing her to become unhinged at times and to show intense anxiety, irritability and psychoses.”   Carter, 20, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter, and will be sentenced August 3. She faces up to 20 years in prison. The defense team is suspected to appeal the decision to a higher court.   Controversy   The ACLU argues that words alone cannot be responsible for someone else’s actions. NYT: “This is saying that what she did is killing him, that her words literally killed him, that the murder weapon here was her words,” said Matthew Segal, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts, which raised concerns about the case to the state’s highest court. “That is a drastic expansion of criminal law in Massachusetts.”  

At just 18 years old, Conrad Roy III tragically took his own life in July 2014. When police arrived at the scene, they found his cell phone, which would reveal some shocking text messages he had been exchanging with his alleged girlfriend at the time, 17-year-old Michelle Carter. Was Michelle encouraging him to commit suicide, and if so, could she be found legally responsible for his death?

Michelle Carter didn't physically kill her boyfriend but she is being held accountable by a Massachusetts judge. Bristol County Juvenile Court Judge Lawrence Moniz delivered his ruling, guilty of involuntary manslaughter after placing her boyfriend Conrad Roy III in a situation that led the young man to commit suicide. The judge could sentence Michelle Carter to 20 years in prison. SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW THE SHOW ON ITUNES One specific message Michelle left was very telling: “You’re finally going to be happy in heaven. No more pain. It’s okay to be scared and it’s normal. I mean, you’re about to die.” If this appears to be more of a mental issue than a criminal one - shouldn’t Michelle be examined by a psychologist before being sentenced to prison? Where is the personal responsibility of her boyfriend in this case? Does text messages and phone calls interfere with a person’s free will? Doesn’t this case violate ‘free speech’? Will Judge Ava Armstrong and Judge Helene Philipsen find her guilty as charged? Judge Out Loud may surprise you with his verdict...

A threesome in Brooklyn turned deadly Monday after one of the participants began filming the encounter, sparking a brutal attack with baseball bats and knives, police sources said. The bloodshed in Park Slope left Manos Ikonomidis, 20, dead of three stab wounds in the chest and back. He collapsed in the first-floor hallway of a building at 16th St. and Seventh Ave., where earlier he’d indulged in the steamy sexcapade with a 21-year-old man and a woman. The psychiatric medication that Michelle Carter was using at the time of Conrad Roy III’s suicide impairs a teenager’s ability to be emphatic, to love another person, to be wise, and to make a good decision, a psychiatrist testified for the defense on Monday.

On June 16, 2017, 20-year-old Michelle Carter was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for encouraging her boyfriend via text messages to commit suicide on July 13, 2014 by carbon monoxide poisoning. She was 17 years old at the time, 40 miles away, and knew exactly where Conrad Roy III was at the time. Rather than prevent a depressed Roy from killing himself, she goaded him on and did nothing to stop it. The criminal case against Carter has sparked much debate about whether she should have been prosecuted at all. Curt Brown, a reporter who covered the case and attended the trial, shares his thoughts and observations. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
