Abortion doctors charged with murder in Md

They deserve it! Throw the book at them. Late term abortions are particularly disturbing to me! How could anyone that is human and has a conscious perform such an atrocity?!
 
This belongs in the Political section. Let's have no more of this, either.

Contrary to popular belief, late term abortions are extremely rare. They do happen; usually as a result of finding out that the fetus has a gross anomaly and it won't survive birth or beyond.

I have been outraged that the Right to Life people have taken what is a MEDICAL DECISION and effectively banned this procedure and criminalized it. Women SHOULD have this option. If indicated, it should be done safely in a hospital and no one should be penalized for performing this procedure. The procedure itself is difficult, but so is surgery. Surgery will turn the stomachs of a lot of people. Do you want to ban surgery because you cut into the body and it's grotesque to see?

Politicians need to stop pandering to lobbyists with agendas!
 
The unborn cannot defend themselves. It is up to the moral majority to stick up for them. I do not see how anyone could terminate a life because it is "inconvenient".

Until you have walked in the shoes of someone who has to make this choice, you cannot judge. I look upon abortion as a necessary evil.
 
This should be in the Political section. Last day, woot. :roll:
 
It sounds like the doctors were quacks if they caused serious injuries to the women.
 
2 Abortion Doctors Face Murder Charges In Cecil County
2 Abortion Doctors Face Murder Charges In Cecil County « CBS Baltimore

ELKTON, Md. (WJZ)– Two abortion doctors face murder charges. The allegations follow a long investigation into a botched abortion in Elkton, Cecil County.

Theres some mystery surrounding this case. Officials won’t identify the victims but they keep mentioning a freezer full of fetuses, some of them almost full term.

Two doctors who performed late-term abortions in a Cecil County clinic now face murder charges. The police investigation began last year when police say Dr. Steven Brigham and Dr. Nicola Riley performed part of an abortion in New Jersey, then transferred the patient to Maryland to finish it. When the 18-year-old woman suffered complications she was taken to the hospital. Then, police searched the abortion clinic looking for her medical records, but they found something else in the freezer.

“It contained the fetuses, approximately 35,” a Cecil County police officer explained. “Some of them appeared to be close to full- term.”

Riley, who lives in Utah, faces one count of first- and second-degree murder. Brigham, from New Jersey, faces five counts of murder.

The indictment is sealed so details are limited.

Reached by phone, State’s Attorney Ellis Rollins would not tell WJZ if the victims are indeed the fetuses found in the freezer.

Late-term abortions are legal in Maryland, but WJZ has learned that prosecutors are planning to use a viable fetus law until now used only in homicides involving pregnant women.

The abortion clinic in Elkton is now closed but fallout from the investigation has already led to changes in the state’s abortion regulations.

“We have the least restrictive abortion laws in the country,” Md. Sen. Nancy Jacobs, R-Cecil and Harford County, said.

Jacobs has pushed for stronger late-term abortion laws. Earlier this year, she worked with the Maryland Health Department to increase oversight of abortion clinics.

May: “Do you think these regulations go far enough?”
Jacobs: “They’re a great start. I think it’s made people more aware of the fact that this was going on.”

Both doctors a being held in jails out of state awaiting extradition back to Maryland.

More details on the charges will be available in court documents that could be made public next week.

Just to understand your position and to make it clear, would you say that if the parents found out, late-term, that their baby was going to be born deaf then it would be ok to have an abortion? After all, there are many people who think of deafness as an anomaly. Ok, maybe not a "gross anomaly" but a anomaly even so.
 
Abortion is more of a religious debate. No good will come from debating this topic here.

Let's stick to discussing the doctors and if they were following the law.
 
Disagree...
Abortion is a medical debate and religion is secondary issue...
The real issue is where abortion becomes a convience after learning facts not know at conception....in otherwords, for a woman to find herself pg. and not wanting to be, she could immediately have an abortion knowing nothing of gender/eye color/etc....
However, in this OP the issue is finding something something ("gross anomaly") and deciding it to be toooo inconvience to bring the child to term.....

I was quoteing OcearBreeze in post 5....no trolling done
 
Interesting to see that it's only the men on this thread that has an issue with abortion and being judgmental to the point of calling it evil.

What's evil is the fact single mothers are the poorest economic group of any country thanks to guys getting them pregnant then fucking off without any apparent concern for the well being of their kids. If men truly cared about the unborn and for those who give life, this reality would never exist.
 
Totally, totally agree with you DC!
Now if we could only get some real leaders of our countries to stand up and tell all these boys/men....ZIP IT!!!
