I wish I could read the remainder of that sentence. I’m quite certain it would be a doozy.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-65882169Prosecutors argued the woman, who the BBC is not naming, had provided false information knowing she was over the time limit and had made online searches which they said indicated "careful planning".
The court heard between February and May 2020 she had searched "how to hide a pregnancy bump", "how to have an abortion without going to the doctor" and "how to lose a baby at six months".
The court heard she had moved back in with her estranged husband at the start of lockdown while carrying another man's baby.
Yes, and it's very wrong that this is being used to suggest that the UK has draconian laws regarding abortion. It doesn't. The judge said the woman would have been given a suspended sentence had she pleaded guilty earlier.The sentence should have been longer. At 32 weeks, you're at term or near enough. It's a fully fledged baby you're carrying. That poor baby being aborted at that point of time is depressing.

I'm sure she feels terrible about it now, but she had the option of giving up the baby for adoption as soon as it was born, had she just waited a few more weeks. Evidently she was trying to reconcile with her estranged partner, and this baby wasn't his child so she had concealed the pregnancy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prenatal_perceptionWikipedia said:Several lines of evidence suggest that a fetus does not awaken during its time in the womb. Much of the literature on fetal pain simply extrapolates from findings and research on premature babies. The presence of such chemicals as adenosine, pregnanolone, and prostaglandin-D2 in both human and animal fetuses, indicate that the fetus is both sedated and anesthetized when in the womb. These chemicals are oxidized with the newborn's first few breaths and washed out of the tissues, increasing consciousness.[13] If the fetus is asleep throughout gestation then the possibility of fetal pain is greatly minimized,[14][15]
These kind of stories are where you actually need the death penalty
They wouldn't give the abuser the death penalty anyway, because that would incentivise them and others to kill the child to remove the evidenceThese kind of stories are where you actually need the death penalty
I guess this isn't the thread but you could argue it's more of a deterrent, revolting scenarioThey wouldn't give the abuser the death penalty anyway, because that would incentivise them and others to kill the child to remove the evidence
