@GottaLaff Let this not only be a reminder of how bad things are in America. Let it also remind you that Facebook raided the private messages of this woman and her daughter and gave the info freely to the government. Cancel FB, insta, TikTok, and Twitter immediately.

@GottaLaff This is a form of terrorism. This conviction will be used to frighten and intimidate women to prevent them from exercising their rights.

@GottaLaff Holy fucking hell!

There is no crime. This is cruelty beyond measure. Fuck the people who are okay with this.

And they won't give her an evaluation because there's no funding, but they have the funding for hearings, trial, appeals, and jail, right?

@GottaLaff "...if a prosecutor wants to target someone for a self-managed abortion, they will find a statute that is elastic enough to do so."
Also, how anyone can trust Facebook after they assisted in the arrest of these two women is beyond my understanding.

@GottaLaff must not be enough people of color to incarcerate in Nebraska (sarcasm intended)
Now prisons will be used for forced birth people to house pregnant people which should serve well the need for more people to farm for the GOP.

@GottaLaff jail time for a concerned and loving mother with mental health issues, but we'll never see a career criminal like Trump behind bars.

"Jessica Burgess (mom) was set to undergo a court-ordered psychological evaluation ahead of her sentencing. But the evaluation was canceled due to lack of funding, according to KTIV."

F**k the criminal "justice" system.
