Biography
Conrad Roy III was an American marine salvage captain who died by suicide at the age of 18. His death attracted national attention due to the involvement of his girlfriend, Michelle Carter, who was 17 at the time. According to reports, Carter sent text messages to Roy that encouraged him to carry out his long-expressed desire to die. The case raised significant legal and ethical questions regarding the influence of communication in suicide and the extent of criminal liability in such situations. The incident led to a high-profile legal proceeding in which Carter was initially charged with involuntary manslaughter, though the case was later dismissed and refiled under different charges.
