Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.BOSTON -- A woman convicted of manslaughter for urging her suicidal boyfriend to kill himself in 2014 is set to leave jail Thursday morning.
The 23-year-old Plainville native is getting out more than three months early after jail officials say she accrued enough credits for good behavior and attending jail programs. She will now serve five years of probation. A Massachusetts judge determined Carter, who was 17 at the time, caused the death of 18-year-old Conrad Roy III when she ordered him in a phone call to get back into his parked truck, which he had rigged to fill up with deadly carbon monoxide.
In text messages sent in the days leading up to Roy's death, Carter also encouraged him to follow through with his suicide plan and chastised him when he didn't.
