Who is Michelle Carter and where is she now?
MICHELLE Carter made headlines in 2014 following the death of her boyfriend, Conrad Henri Roy III.
She was accused of helping him commit suicide over text messages, which ultimately left her behind bars.
Who is Michelle Carter?
Michelle Carter is a convicted felon who reportedly helped her former boyfriend commit suicide.
On July 13, 2014, Conrad Roy III was found dead in his truck outside a superstore in Massachusetts after he had attached a hose from a generator and filled his truck up with carbon monoxide.
At the time, the 18-year-old had been battling anxiety and depression, and Carter, who was 17 years old, encouraged him to end his life through a series of texts that were discovered during the investigation.
Outside of her case, little information is known about her personal life.
Where is she now?
In February 2015, Carter was arrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection to her boyfriend's death.
During the investigation, authorities found messages on Conrad's phone from Carter which read, "You keep pushing it off and say you'll do it but you never do. It's always gonna be that way if you don't take action," and "You just need to do it."
