A resident of Plainville, Massachusetts, Michelle had met Conrad in 2012 in Naples, Florida, when they were visiting their respective relatives who happened to be neighbors. A student of King Philip Regional High School, she was athletic, excelled at softball, well-liked by her peers (voted “most likely to brighten your day”), and a big fan of the television series Glee. She also struggled with anxiety, anorexia, and body image issues. She had texted Conrad suggesting ways to kill himself and kept encouraging him when he expressed hesitation. She was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for Conrad's death. She was 17 when Conrad killed himself. She's 25 now.
