Additionally it doesn’t even consider the psychological impact the miscarriage likely had on the mother to begin with. This is literally the criminalization of the aftermath of an act of God/Nature. Her water broke & the fetus was already not viable. The Obtuse application of law.
This is heartbreaking. A woman in Warren, Ohio, has been charged with abuse of a corpse for trying to plunge a toilet after having a miscarriage at 22 weeks while using the restroom.
