"Pleads guilty to abortion" is a phrase I never hoped to read in my lifetime.
It’s also sensationalist bs. The actual charges were for performing an abortion without being a doctor and for concealing the death.
It was her daughter that she gave abortion pills to, and then helped dispose of the fetus. The daughter was 29 weeks pregnant and the law (since 2010 btw) is abortions can only be performed up to 20 weeks. The daughter also only got the charge for hiding the body.
But yeah 29 weeks is well past viability. At that point it’s more like inducing still birth. Nobody pleaded guilty to abortion. We need to fight for our rights, but we also need to do it while educated.
All of these rage bait titles are getting ridiculous.
