Americans' right to free speech is protected by the First Amendment — that's Civics 101. Understanding how it works in practice, though, can be a complicated task. That's why constitutional law professor Barry McDonald is here to answer Lou's (and your) questions about free speech. This is 'Legally Speaking.'
A woman in Massachusetts encouraged her boyfriend to commit suicide. Is she guilty of manslaughter, or was she within her First Amendment rights? If she's guilty, how should we punish online trolls who try to goad people into suicide?
