Texas judge grants pregnant woman's request to get an abortion
A Dallas-area mother found out that her fetus has trisomy 18, a genetic condition that can cause stillbirth or death of a newborn. The court order allows her to end the pregnancy.
A Texas judge on Thursday granted an emergency order allowing a pregnant woman whose fetus has a fatal diagnosis to get an abortion in the state.
Late last month, Kate Cox, a 31-year-old Dallas-area mother of two who is about 20 weeks pregnant, found out that her developing fetus has trisomy 18, a rare chromosomal disorder likely to cause stillbirth or the death of the baby shortly after it’s born.
Cox told NBC News Thursday afternoon that she was “hopeful” and very grateful after the judge’s decision.
You're viewing a single thread.
Next up, the state appeals, prolonging the case until this godless harlot has no choice but to birth her already dead child just like the good Lord, our Savior, Republican Jesus, would want it.
Obligatory/s
Even worse, seems like the texas AG is threatening to prosecute her or any hospital that participates:
Couldn't the judge hold him in contempt of court for it, though? Not that it'll happen.
A judge can hold anyone in contempt, for any reason, for any length of time. But I think it extremely unlikely here, because usually the judiciary and the prosecution are on the same side.
