According to E! Online, Carter met Roy’s family shortly after his death to attend his wake. Moreover, she decided to plan a fundraiser in his honor in September 2014. The U.S. Sun writes that this softball fundraiser was called “Homers for Conrad” and its goal was to raise awareness for suicide prevention and mental health. Per The Daily Mail, Carter stated that the event made $2,300. Interestingly, Carter planned the event in Plainville, away from Roy’s hometown of Mattapoisett. She was also active on social media and frequently posted photos of Roy and stated that she missed him.

Meanwhile, Carter had texted a friend two days after the fundraiser and told them that she could have prevented Roy’s suicide but instead told him to go through with it. All That’s Interesting reported that by October, authorities were interested in speaking to Carter. A warrant was issued for Carter’s phone and her appalling texts to Roy came to light (via E! Online). She was subsequently indicted on charges of involuntary manslaughter and was put on trial. Carter attempted to get the charges dismissed but when that failed, she opted for a trial by a judge rather than a jury (per NBC Boston). Furthermore, she decided against testifying.
