Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakatenatenahia e tētahi ākonga o te kura tuarua tana hoa rangatira kia whakamate i a ia, nā te mea ki te kore, ka whakawehi ia kia whakamate i a ia i te rā e whai ake nei, i kīia e ia ki tētahi hoa. I whakawakia a Michelle Carter, 18, i te marama kua hipa, mo te kohurutanga i te mate o Conrad Roy III, i mate i te paitini waikura i roto i tana taraka i Fairhaven, Massachusetts i te Hōngongoi o te tau kua hipa. I te wā i tuku karere ai a Roy ki a Carter, e kore ana ia e tino mōhio me whakamate ia i a ia, ā, kua eke atu ia i te waka, e kīia ana kua tuku karere atu a Roy ki a ia: 'Kia hoki mai ki roto.' Na kua puta mai i muri mai ka korero ia ki tetahi hoa: 'I puta ia i te motuka, a ka kii atu ahau ki a ia kia hoki mai... na te mea i mohio ahau ka mahi ano ia i te ra e whai ake nei,' People korerotia. Ko te whakapae: I mohio a Michelle Conrad, i whakaahuatia i te taha maui, ko tana hoa a Conrad Roy III, i te taha matau, he whakamomori engari kaua ki te rapu awhina, i akiaki ia ia ki te tango i tona ora i nga meneti i mua i tona matenga i te Hurae o te tau kua hipa. I kii te maheni i nga ra i mua o te whakamate a Roy i a ia ano, i tuhi a Carter i ana hoa ki te kii kua ngaro ia, a e wehi ana ia ka whakamate ia i a ia ano. Engari i whakaaturia mai e ētahi atu karere, i te wā katoa e tuku karere ana ia ki a Roy. 'Kia mohio ahau ina ka mahi koe i te reira,' tetahi o ona karere e kiia ana te pānui. 'E whakapono ana a Carter i mahi i tenei ara na te mea e whakamahere ana ia ki te akiaki tonu i a Conrad ki te whakamate i a ia ano,' e ai ki nga pirihimana, i kii te iwi. 'Na i te mutunga ka tīmata ia ki te whakatakoto i tētahi mahere kia whiwhi arohaehae mai i ōna hoa, e kitea ana, nā te mea i tēnei wā kua tīmata kē ia ki te whakamārama ko tōna hara te mate o Conrad, ahakoa kei te ora tonu ia, ā, kei te kōrero, kei te tuku karere ki a ia i ia wā.' E ai ki nga pirihimana me nga kaitohutohu, neke atu i te kotahi mano ngā karere kuputuhi a te tokorua i roto i ngā rā i mua i tana matenga i te papa waka o te Fairhaven Kmart i te 13 o Hōngongoi 2014. I mua i tana whakamomori, i kii a Conrad ki a ia he wehi ia, kaore hoki i rite ki te whakarere i tana whanau, e ai ki te ripoata pirihimana, engari 'i haere tonu ia ki te akiaki i a ia kia whakamate i a ia ano', i kii te Sun Chronicle.

I tukuna e Michelle Carter he raupapa karere ki a Conrad Roy III, 18, e whakatenatena ana kia whakamatea ia i te papa waka i Fairhaven, Massachusetts, i te Hōngongoi o te tau kua hipa I kitea ia kua mate i te paitini waikura i roto i tana taraka e noho puku ana. I etahi ra i muri mai, ka korerotia e ia ki tetahi hoa e manukanuka ana ia kei te tirotirohia e nga pirihimana ana karere, e mea ana: 'Kua mutu ahau... Ka taea e au te haere ki te whare herehere' I muri i tona matenga, i kohia e ia he moni mo te aukati i te whakamomori me te tuhi i runga i Twitter mo te nui o tana mihi ki a ia. I whakawakia a Carter, 17 ona tau i taua wā, i te marama kua hipa, ā, kua tukuna ia ki waho i runga i te herenga; ka hoki mai ia ki te kōti i te marama o Paenga-whāwhā.
