There has always been a lot of controversies when people hear the name, Michelle Carter. Some people believe that she is responsible for the death of Conrad Roy and others believe that she is not. When you look at her, it was proven that she did have mental health issues and people believed that she should be taken off the hook because of that. Although that should be taken into consideration she thoroughly explained to Conrad how he should kill himself. When he even got out of the car because he was scared, she instructed him to get back in the car and do it right then and there.
Conrad and Michelle were in what they had made it seem like a happy relationship, even though they didn't see each other often, they texted a lot and their texts consisted of lots of "I love you" When you look at Michelle after, she kept saying how sad she was and how hard it was for her and obviously it is a hard time when you lose a loved one but was she just saying that or is that how she honestly felt. If she wanted to be happy wouldn't she tell Conrad not to kill himself, since he was what made her happy,
In my opinion, I believe Michelle Carter is responsible for the death of Conrad Roy. This is because even though as addressed before she had mental health issues, she did not let that interfere when she was completely planning out how Conrad was going to take his life. She had to have thought of the consequences and what was going to happen after but she did not care about that as she wanted all the attention on herself after since everyone was going to be checking up on her and to see how shes doing.

I agree that Michelle is guilty for this case. I think one of the main evidence that supports this is the video vlog that he makes explaining that he's pretty happy. This was before his deep relationship with Michelle. He talks about becoming a captain with his grandfather on a ship which is something he was really looking forward to. I feel as if he did not meet Michelle, this suicide would not have happened. Reports say that he had been depressed for a while, and I believe Michelle was the catalyst for this suicide.
ReplyDeleteI don't fully agree that Michelle was fully responsible for the death of Conrad Roy. Although yes Michelle sent texts encouraging Conrad to kill himself. Conrad himself had been suffering with depression and mental illness before Michelle came into the picture. Michelle also did tell Conrad that he could get help and go to a mental hospital but Conrad in a way was very manipulative and told her that if she said anything about him being suicidal than he would hate her. Now this really affected Michelle because she had a hard time gaining friends and no one really wanted to hang out with her at school. Most of the times she would text girls from school to make plans but they would either never respond or say no. So Michelle didn’t want to lose the only person that she felt she had their attention. So in her sick mind she eventually started to believe that by helping Conrad commit suicide was the best thing for him.
