Two Massachusetts lawmakers introduce 'Conrad's Law,' inspired by Michelle Carter case, that would outlaw coerced suicide in the state.

Two Massachusetts lawmakers introduced a bill Wednesday that would make encouraging someone to take their own life a crime.

Roy was 18 when he sat in a Kmart parking lot in Fairhaven, Massachusetts, inhaling deadly fumes from a generator running in the vehicle on July 13, 2014. "You keep pushing it off and say you'll do it but u never do. It's always gonna be that way if u don't take action," Carter texted him on the day he died.he had stepped outside his makeshift death chamber.

Can't believe they had to make a law about this, it should be treated as any other murder. This broad was just too scared to do it herself so in telling him to, it was as if she put the gun to his temple herself.🧐😣🇺🇸😢

She is beautiful on the outside, but ugly AF on the inside.

This goddamn state. How can anyone respect your laws when the people who make them don’t even follow them?

Why would it not already a crime?

Crazy how scum bag lawyers get away with creating laws and make money off tragedy then get away with it. Fear mongering, scare tactics, racism, sexism and the list goes on. Some one needs to put these fools in check. Can't be the land of the free with so many ignorant laws.

I hope she is still rotting in prison btw
