You are correct that she was not obligated to help him or do anything to stop him. Its way different when she actively goad him into doing the act. You forget she isn't just some stranger on the street but his girlfriend. Which means she is at a level of trust in their relationship which she used to direct and goad him into doing the act even when he was hesitant. She had every chance to hang up, not take his calls, call the police or his parents anything but assist with his death. By assisting with his death she became an assessor to the act which is a crime in most states. I think we are all pretty sure if there was an exact law on this, the persecutor would have gone for voluntary Manslaughter.
