They know how sad you are, and they know that you are doing this to be happy and I think they will understand and accept it. A judge determined that Carter, who was 17 at the time, caused Roy's death when she ordered him in a phone call to get back in his carbon monoxide-filled truck. "Promise me right now that you won't (kill yourself)," read another. Stop ignoring the question????" She also did not testify in her defense at the trial. "When are you gonna do it? And you've hit that point and I think your parents know you've hit that point. "I think your parents know you're in a really bad place," she said, according to the documents.

"The Girl From Plainville": The real-life texting-suicide case behind ... (Salon)

Elle Fanning stars as the guilty teen in the shocking case that changed how we think about criminal responsibility.

Carter was subsequently sentenced to two and a half years in prison — she served only 15 months of that sentence and the remaining were suspended. They know you wouldn't want them to be sad and depressed and be angry and guilty. They know how sad you are, and they know that you are doing this to be happy and I think they will understand and accept it. The miniseries also references and is based on Jesse Barron's Esquire article of the same name. In June 2017, the trial was decided and Carter was officially found guilty of her charges. Finally, she did not issue a simple additional instruction [to Roy to stop]." They know you want them to live their lives and be happy. And you've hit that point and I think your parents know you've hit that point. Her reputation soon took a turn after investigators uncovered Roy and Carter's text exchanges, which prompted Carter's trial and eventual conviction. They lived only an hour away from each other in the Boston suburbs — Roy in Fairhaven and Carter in Plainville — but strictly communicated via phone and text message. But two years later, shortly after Roy's second attempt, Carter's attitudes shifted and she began urging him to kill himself, even sending step-by-step instructions on how to successfully do it. In the series, Elle Fanning ( "The Great") plays Michelle Carter, who encourages her 18-year-old boyfriend Conrad Roy III (Colton Ryan, "Dear Evan Hansen") through text messages to kill himself.

Elle Fanning (Michelle Carter) · Colton Ryan (Conrad “Coco” Roy III) · Chloë Sevigny (Lynn Roy) · Norbert Leo Butz (Conrad “Co” Roy II) · Cara Buono (Gail Carter).

On the big screen, he has played Steve Carell’s brother in the 2007 dramedy, Dan in Real Life, appeared alongside the star-studded cast of the timely 2012 drama Disconnect, leant his voice to the 2019 animated film Wonder Park, and starred in the Sean Penn-led (and directed) thriller, Flag Day, in 2021. As Michelle Carter’s father, David, we have Kai Lennox, whom fans of the Mighty Ducks movies might recognize as Team Iceland’s Olaf from the second film in 1992. She also starred on Season 2 and 5 of American Horror Story, played one of Bill Paxton’s three wives on Big Love, and was a police officer in Jim Jarmusch’s irreverent zombie comedy, The Dead Don’t Die, in 2019. Playing Michelle Carter, whose historic manslaughter conviction inspired The Girl from Plainville, is Elle Fanning - who, at three years old, made her acting debut as a younger version of her sister, Dakota Fanning, in I Am Sam in 2001 before doing the same thing in the SyFy original miniseries Taken the following year. Fanning previously portrayed historical figures in the 2017 Frankenstein author biopic, Mary Shelley, and as the lead of Hulu's The Great cast for two seasons so far. In 2017, Michelle Carter was convicted of the involuntary manslaughter of her 18-year-old boyfriend, Conrad Roy III, based on a series of text messages sent by her, encouraging him to take his own life.

'The Girl From Plainville': Elle Fanning on Telling This True Crime ... (Collider.com)

The Girl From Plainville's Elle Fanning discusses telling the true crime story without bias, which scene was the hardest to film, and more.

It was a shock to the system to do something so different. And I do think, to hold all that together, because that is the climax of the pilot, there’s a moment where you’re feeling for Michelle, but then you want the audience to wonder if it was all a dramatization. There’s something twisted inside her, that she is mimicking grief and trying to put that on, as the grieving widow, in a way. We really wanted to not sensationalize the story in any way and show more to all of these characters, to both families, and to not do what the media did, which was blanket it in one way and not show the facts or the details behind it all. I wrote on my legal pad, every single mannerism that she did, at the time that she did it, and when she got emotional, when she held back, when she would close her eyes, and every gesture that was there. It’s so easy for people to say things online that they wouldn’t say to your face, so I can understand that. I was around their age when all this was going on, so you can’t help but think about, “Wow, these are young people, and they have phones, just like me.” This is something that we’re all trying to navigate, with this false sense of reality that we face in the technological age of texting and social media and that instant gratification that you feel when you get a text, and how easy it is to say things online and to not see the consequences of the hurt that your words can cause. It was very meta because Michelle is mimicking grief, but she’s feeling grief, herself, and Leah Michele was feeling grief for her real life boyfriend who passed away, but also acting on a show and mourning the character that he played on the show. And that was the one day where everyone felt very light. Even with this heavy subject matter, there are elements of fantasy throughout the series and, as a result, you have a song and dance number in this (“Can’t Fight This Feeling”) with Colton Ryan. What was it like to shoot that? I think that also Conrad [Roy] was very much portrayed in that way. After his death, for which she ultimately stood trial for involuntary manslaughter, Michelle works to ingratiate herself with Conrad’s family and friends, until countless text messages encouraging his suicide are revealed, and she must face how big of a role she played in his actions.
