CMV: Michelle Carter should not have been found guilty for involuntary manslaughter for encouraging her boyfriend to kill himself in the texting suicide case

This is more a legal debate than a personal opinion - but this is my opinion upon hearing about this story and I am open to changing it upon hearing other people's legal analysis about this. Obligatory: I am not a lawyer. But this verdict seems pretty outrageous to me.

So there was a teenage boy who was suicidal and repeatedly talking about killing himself and specifically how to do it and stuff. He was long-distance dating a teenage girl (basically dating over text) for a year or so who had previously tried to discourage him from killing himself.

But then one time she told him to just do it. "Do it, get back in the car and do it." And he did. And she was on the phone with him, hearing him moan, and then silence. Then she did not call the police or alert any adults but instead texted a friend "I think he just killed himself. It's my fault. I made him do it."

Despicable. Disgusting. Morally corrupt. But involuntary manslaughter? Iiiidk about that.

I agree with the analysis from one lawyer in this article:

"Her behavior was horrible, but it doesn't fit perfectly with involuntary manslaughter," Daniel Medwed, a professor at Northwestern University School of Law, tells Rolling Stone. As he explains, a classic manslaughter charge involves "a direct reckless action" – for examples, a drunk driver plowing into a pedestrian or someone firing a gun into a crowd – but here is "an indirect action because Carter's words may have pushed Roy to do something, but ultimately Roy was the one who did it," Medwed says. "The prosecution is saying that Carter's words are the weapon and that she directly caused his death."

What do you all think? Can someone convince me that guilty of involuntary manslaughter was the correct legal verdict?
