Michelle Carter - Part 2 of 2 - Examining Persuasion and The Need For Attention


Listen Later

On Sunday, July 13, 2014, Conrad Roy was discovered to have committed suicide in his truck through carbon monoxide poisoning. What would be uncovered after searching his phone would lead to a case that intrigued the nation. After a long series of text messages between Conrad and his girlfriend Michelle, it appeared that she not only encouraged him to commit suicide but also instructed him to get back into his truck when he got scared at one point and exited the vehicle.  Many have questioned this. A new HBO documentary about Michelle Carter titled, "I Love You, Now Die," by Erin Lee Carr gives us a glimpse into the prosecution and defense. Why did Michelle Carter do it? Where is Michelle Carter now in 2019. Join Awen and I as we discuss modern relationships, the power of words and the new normal of interpersonal relationships in the world of social media.
