As the New York Times reported over the weekend, citing prosecutors, the 42-year-old had ordered abortion medication online and given it to her then 17-year-old daughter, who was in the final stages of her pregnancy.
It was said that mother and daughter then buried the remains of the fetus. According to the New York Times report, the court rejected the 42-year-old’s request for a suspended sentence. The reason given was that she had treated the remains of the fetus “like yesterday’s rubbish”. In July, the daughter was sentenced to 90 days in prison.
The investigation into the mother and daughter began even before the Supreme Court overturned the country’s right to abortion in June 2022. Still, the case raised fears about the extent to which women and supporters could be prosecuted for abortions.
