A 31-year-old Georgia woman has been charged with murder by police who say she took pills to induce an illegal abortion.
If state prosecutors decide to move forward with the murder charge brought by local police against Alexia Moore, her case would be one of the first instances of a woman being charged for terminating a pregnancy in Georgia since it passed a 2019 law banning most abortions.
The arrest warrant charging Moore with murder uses language that echoes the law, saying police determined that Moore had been pregnant beyond six weeks “based on the medical staff’s knowledge that the baby had a beating heart and was struggling to breathe”.
“No one should be criminalized for having an abortion,” Dana Sussman, senior vice-president of the advocacy group Pregnancy Justice said in a statement, calling Moore’s case “an unprecedented murder charge for an alleged abortion”.
That would be barbaric. Instead, we let them die of sepsis or bleed to death from their genitals.
Or have their body kept artificially alive as an incubator for a fetus.
And find a way to charge the fetus for the hospital bill after delivery.
I believe the grandparents in that scenario are on the hook for the hospital bills for keeping that baby alive. It’s so fucked up.
Why do you think they try to keep it alive?
Kids tend to grow old and the rapist in charge don’t like them too old. So you need to maintain a supply and those who are too ugly can be slaves.
