Can one person be held criminally responsible for another taking their own life? In 2017, the State of Massachusetts said they sure the fuck can in the groundbreaking case of Massachusetts v Carter where a young woman was convicted of manslaughter over the self-inflicted death of her alleged boyfriend. We will discuss their two-year relationship and the key moment in which the prosecution says made her liable for his death.
