Sounds like she might have been using reverse-psychology.

This girl isn’t satanic.
She IS Satan, in the flesh.

Not sure how I come down on this - sleazy work by the "girlfriend" but is it really a punishable crime for similar age folks to tell each other to do stupid things?
Reminds me of one of my Mom's friends in the '50s - she was really upset because she was pissed at her boss and told him to drop dead -- which he did later that nigh of a massive heart attack.
I realize it ain't the exact same thing but where does one draw the line. If someone urges a girlfriend to have an abortion, or even perform one on herself, it kills a baby -- under the "standards" used here, that person should also be indicted.

[If the police] read my messages with him Im done. His family will hate me and I can go to jail, Carter texted a friend after her 18-year-old boyfriend used a gas-powered water pump to commit suicide in the parking lot of a K-Mart. How does one kill them self with a gas-powered water pump?

I don't know if it is illegal, but it should be. By definition, a suicidal person is in need of the help of a psychiatrist or other medical care. Preying on a suicidal person's mental affliction, urging them to go ahead with suicide is as bad or worse than selling heroin to an addict who is already at death's door.

The charge is “involuntary manslaughter”. This will be interesting. There’s no doubt that she’s a vile predator, but how will a jury find?

She is truly evil. She pushed him and pushed him. She is a sociopath. She wanted the attention she would garner after he died. This was a manipulative ***** who used the ultimate power over another vulnerable human being. There really are no words to describe this person.
That all said, she will get away with it.

Pump was probably used to push carbon monoxide from the tailpipe of his car to the interior of his car, while he sat inside with the windows rolled up.
To: trebb
Absolutely. The boy obviously had issues, and she played upon those issues. She could have walked away and said it is over, but she instead chose to repeatedly goad him until he finally acquiesced.
To: ozaukeemom
While I agree with your characterization of this vicious creature, I hope that you’re wrong about her chance of conviction.

What you described sounded like a one time event, a nasty remark voiced while in a particularly bad mood. What happened with these two here though, was not a one time event, but an extended campaign to cloud the boy’s feeble mind and shape his behavior.
She knew he was highly suggestible, and many boys that age will be with young girls. She knew he had few other influences in his life that could counter her suggestions. This boy seemed to feel both inferior and deeply depressed. This gal must have known how the end result could look, and like a film director(or like the Intercom voice of your own consciousness), she hectored him in order to achieve that result.

I have no faith in our legal system.

What a sick twisted person. I’m surprised Islam didn’t recruit her, she’s fit right in.
