The Alabama Supreme Court has ruled that frozen embryos can be considered children under state law, a decision critics said could have sweeping implications for fertility treatment in the state.
The decision was issued in a pair of wrongful death cases brought by three couples who had frozen embryos destroyed in an accident at a fertility clinic. Justices, citing anti-abortion language in the Alabama Constitution, ruled that an 1872 state law allowing parents to sue over the death of a minor child “applies to all unborn children, regardless of their location.”
How are you supposed to charge a baby with manslaughter or charge the father when he just contributed sperm? I get your mood, but that’s not a winnable case for the prosecution.
I can see a tort law case like wrongful death happening, (that’s the case happening here) That’s not a criminal case however unless one wants to prosecute criminal negligence in another case
I see no reason we can’t charge the baby as an adult, it was premeditated.
The ga ga goo goo defense.
