In a deeply distressing case in Ohio, a woman named Brittany Watts is facing felony charges for the abuse of a corpse after experiencing a devastating miscarriage. The incident has ignited a heated debate over the criminalization of pregnancy outcomes, including miscarriages.
Watts had been 21 weeks and 5 days pregnant when she received the devastating news that her fetus would not survive. Tremendously heartbroken and distraught, she was urged to undergo a procedure that resembles an abortion. However, instead of receiving the necessary medical care, Watts ultimately miscarried in her bathroom after days of anguish.
