Summary
Eighteen-year-old Nevaeh Crain died from sepsis after Texas’s abortion ban delayed critical medical intervention during her pregnancy complications.
Despite multiple ER visits and severe symptoms, doctors waited to confirm fetal demise before acting due to the state’s restrictive laws. Crain endured intense pain and deteriorating health over multiple hospital visits, ultimately suffering a miscarriage and passing away from internal bleeding.
Medical experts believe timely intervention could have saved her. Her mother, Candace Fails, is pursuing legal accountability but faces significant legal hurdles under Texas’s stringent emergency care standards.
Did they, though? Do we know how Nevaeh Crain and Candace Fails voted? Would that somehow make it okay?
The fact thay people who have done nothing to support these policies can still be killed by them is PRECISELY the problem.

“Fails and Crain believed abortion was morally wrong. The teen could only support it in the context of rape or life-threatening illness, she used to tell her mother. They didn’t care whether the government banned it, just how their Christian faith guided their own actions.”
They shouldn’t get pregnant in Texas because the laws in Texas could kill them. Wear a condom if you fuck in Texas.
(I realize that in some situations, like rape, it’s not up to the woman and in those cases my snarky comments do not apply)
Oh so abstinence should be the policy. Got it. Good plan.
No, condoms should be the policy.
