        Still disappointed by the conviction and precedent it created, but relieved she didn't get the max 20 years, which would've been unjust.

        Why would you ever feel relieved for this monster? She is a pure sociopath

        Her actions were unethical, but to say she caused his death? As a teenager especially, she deserved a lesser charge.

        She even told him to delete the texts. She knew full well what she was doing, how did she get away with 2.5 years. Complete injustice

        2.5 years is little time to what she caused.

        If you see the messages , this was a consistent encouragement to commit suicide as opposed to helped. And it was really bad.

        These were bad acts, no doubt. But how can it be involuntary manslaughter (the conviction) and a suicide (the act) at the same time?

        The words assisted suicide come to mind for me. This is illegal in most locations.

        Why do you think it is not applicable to the specific question I was addressing.

        I appreciate how you simply asked her to clarify herself as opposed to chewing her out with defensiveness or swears (like many on the web).
