Nebraska US mother sentenced to two years in prison for giving daughter abortion pills - Lemmy

Before you get the pitchforks, this pregnancy was past the 5 month mark. While the majority are in favor of abortion, this is very close to third trimester abortion which isn’t so popular without extenuating circumstances.

And it got that far because…

I’ll bet you my right leg the answer isn’t “because they had made an entirely unburdened choice to keep the pregnancy and changed their mind at the last minute.”

Pitchforks remain acceptable.

It sounds like there was a lot going on. Attempting to burn and bury the fetus really doesn’t help. The article does mention an abusive relationship, which could be justification, but I’d hope if she was literally prevented from getting an abortion for 20+ weeks then this wouldn’t be happening.
Hope and Nebraska don’t usually mix.
