The Indiana attorney general’s investigation into the physician who provided abortion care to a 10-year-old rape survivor includes six consumer complaints from people who have never interacted with the doctor, according to her attorney.
Dr Caitlin Bernard, an obstetrician-gynecologist in Indianapolis, provided care to the 10-year-old girl after her home state of Ohio outlawed abortion at the sign of a so-called fetal “heartbeat”, or at roughly six weeks of pregnancy. The state enacted the law hours after the US Supreme Court revoked the constitutional right to abortion care on 24 June.
