Only in Alabama

[OldLady]

Well folks we are now seeing the madness of the right and their overzealous contempt for Mothers and their freedom..


Washington (AFP) - An American woman who miscarried after being shot five times has been charged by Alabama authorities in the death of her fetus, a move abortion rights groups condemned on Thursday.

The arrest of Marshae Jones came amid heightened tensions around abortion after more than a dozen states in the southern and midwestern United States, including Alabama, passed restrictive abortion laws that are currently being challenged in court.

"Marshae Jones was indicted for manslaughter for losing a pregnancy after being shot in the abdomen five times. Her shooter remains free. We're going to get Marshae out of jail," tweeted The Yellowhammer Fund, an Alabama-based group that gives financial help to people seeking abortions.
Shot American woman who miscarried faces homicide charge

" "It was the mother of the child who initiated and continued the fight which resulted in the death of her own unborn baby," he added."

She was shot while in the car. What next are they going to put everyone in jail and prison what a pg female has a drink. How long can one have sex when pregnant..

Actually it is criminal child endangerment here in Alabama to pop hot on a piss test. So... Kinda yeah...

OMG. If we had that law in Maine, we'd have to build at least twice as many jails. Hundreds of drug addicted babies are born every year.

I'm wondering if this whole event with this baby dying would have even occurred if Alabama wasn't forced to remove the 10 commandments from their courthouses?

If this young lady and the shooter would have read them, maybe they wouldn't have got into this kind of violent melee.

Why use the law of Moses when the laws of America state the same?

 

[bullwinkle]

The real facts are out there and actually on this board. She attacked the other woman, they were in a car, she was beating the crap out of the other woman and she pulled her gun in self defense. If the pregnant woman had not been the aggressor, that child would probably be alive today.

again, searched to see if anyone else was commenting on this subject, and no one else was.

So she couldn't outrun a pregnant woman? Shooting her was the only recourse she had?

And fetus does not make it less a baby. It is a term used to distinguish pre birth vs after birth. And used by those pro choice to make it seem unlike a baby, but it is.

Fetuses aren't viable, so they aren't babies.

She climbed on top of her in the car. Never seen two women fight?

Depotoo, I am NOT anti-abortion, but we really need a 'rest of the story' illumination on this. Working on an ambulance, I've seen a few of these cat-fights, and they are vicious. The headline makes the incident seem ridiculous, but I suspect the 'victim' is not as innocent as seems. And the thing that makes me scratch my head about incidents like this is how the ladies go after the 'other woman' while the philandering guy is blameless in both ladies eyes.

Bullshit! The victim is totally blameless. How you could place even the possibility of blame on the child is fucking insane.

vastator, what are you talking about in this post? I never mentioned the child. I actually blame the two idiots who are screwing the same guy.

I am more interested in the woman with the gun, did he have a permit? Did she have to fire a gun in the gut of a pg female that she was fighting with over a man. Could not she of aimed the gun to a different part of her body.

I suspect she wanted, (the girl with the gun) wanted to end the fetuses life.

Typical libtard! When will you realize that in 99.9% of America, permits are NOT required for guns because they are unconstitutional? Also, a woman is not referred to as "he" except in a libtard's world."

I’m talking about you trying to paint the perpetrator as the victim; instead of being honest. Because the “victims” are the deceased, and the woman who had to fight off the attacker. You said “I suspect the ‘victim’ is not as innocent as seems.”

[Rustic]

She started the fight, she put her baby in danger. And yes, it was a baby.

Um, no, it was a fetus.

She's not the one who pulled the trigger.

So let me get this straight. A woman gets into an argument with another woman over a man they were both sleeping with. One of them pulls out a gun, shoots the other and the woman who got shot is treated like the perp?

This is all kinds of messed up.

Lol
In your Politically correct opinion

 

[miketx]

Yes, the crazy world of Religious Nuttery is a lot closer than we think. Let's look at this case.

A shooting ended Marshae Jones’s pregnancy. Police say it’s her fault.

In Alabama, a black woman is facing criminal charges after being shot in the stomach and having a miscarriage. The story has drawn national attention and outrage from reproductive rights groups who argue that the incident is a disturbing example of the mistreatment and criminalization of low-income pregnant women of color.

On Wednesday, Marshae Jones, a 27-year-old woman from Birmingham, was taken into police custody after being indicted in Jefferson County on a manslaughter charge. She is currently being held on a $50,000 bond.

In December, Jones — then five months pregnant — got into an altercation with a 23-year-old woman outside of a store. The woman, Ebony Jemison, pulled out a gun and shot Jones in the stomach. Jones miscarried shortly after.

“Let’s not lose sight that the unborn baby is the victim here,’’ Reid said. “She had no choice in being brought unnecessarily into a fight where she was relying on her mother for protection.” Alabama is one of 38 states with a fetal homicide law that recognizes a fetus as a potential victim of a crime against a pregnant woman.

When the indictment was reported on Wednesday, it immediately raised questions about why the woman who was shot was the one charged.

So we live in a gun-crazy culture where a fetus has more rights than the woman it is inside. How could anything go wrong?

Pregnant woman starts fight and wont stop until she is shot in self defense, killing her baby. Insane OP blames shooter.

The 10 commandments came from Almighty God, and that gives them a lot more cachet with God Fearing people.

I keep asking you Tommy--how can you say "Only in Alabama"? You ever been there? Birmingham? Montgomery? Mobile? Anywhere in the state?

Or are you just being a snotty judge from afar, as usual?

I live in the U.S. I was born a U.S. citizen. I've been to Alabama. Tommy is right. Alabama sucks big time. I remember when Birmingham was known as "Bombingham." Those dead little girls in the church choir. Remember?

Well, I've been to the East Coast and never met a bunch of colder, meaner people Hysteria, and that's the truth. Philly is pretty bad, DC is terrible but NYC is really the worst. I feel awful for foreigners who come to see what America is like and stop at the East Coast--the rudest, coldest people I've ever seen.

Except maybe Parisians, but that's another story

Where are you from? Where do you live? Who treated you badly? In NYC, in DC? I've lived all of my life in in NYC and DC. What happened to you when you were here in these places? Who treated you wrongly? If you had an incident on the street, did people not rush to your aid?

People from all over the U.S. rush to the aid of others all the time. This is our duty as human beings.

Sweet Sue, Who treated you "cold" and "mean" in DC, NYC, London?

I live in the Midwest, and it was more rare to see a polite and friendly person than it was a cold and rude one. Especially in NYC. The rudest people I have encountered anywhere I have traveled. Philly and DC were a close second.

This is not a secret, Hysteria. This is quite well known, how rude East Coasters are.

How so? I've experienced nothing but graciousness. An African-American man whom I remember shoveling behind my vehicle after a snow storm. Two African-American men who rushed to pick me up when I fell outside of a store on the ice. We have a downstairs neighbor who is African-American and always has plants outside. We had a conversation a few days ago about herbs, and he showed me where I could get mint and basil without going to the store. Just stop in front of the condo and pick them.

Just this past week, an African-American bus driver stopped to wait for me and my groceries (I am currently car-less), an Hispanic woman helped me on board with my heavy packages, and while I was hoping to be home before the rain started, I was unlucky, when I got off the bus, the deluge had already started, so a woman in a hijab took out her umbrella and held it over MY head.

I do not understand this tale that people on the east coast of the United States are rude. Even on our darkest day, September 11, we all did what we could. I went to the local hospital and was one of the first to give a pint of A-positive, after the explosion at the Pentagon rocked the bathroom in which I was brushing my teeth. (Yes, I put food and drink in my car and was fully ready to work in the emergency room in any capacity that I was needed) Yes, it was loud and it shook the floor beneath my feet.

I will renew my question. How were you treated badly in NYC. in Philly, in DC? Please explain how you were mistreated on the east coast.

Shot mum who miscarried is charged with manslaughter but shooter goes free

A MUM who miscarried her baby after she was shot five times in the abdomen has been charged with manslaughter - while the love rival who riddled her with bullets faces no action.

Cops in US state Alabama claim Marshae Jones, 27, endangered her unborn child by starting the fight that landed her in hospital.

If she had been armed she wouldnt have been going to jail. What a story. Encapsulating everything shit about the State.

Wow...the Sun.....you couldn't find a less reliable source than CNN....

Here is another source.

Well folks we are now seeing the madness of the right and their overzealous contempt for Mothers and their freedom..


Washington (AFP) - An American woman who miscarried after being shot five times has been charged by Alabama authorities in the death of her fetus, a move abortion rights groups condemned on Thursday.

The arrest of Marshae Jones came amid heightened tensions around abortion after more than a dozen states in the southern and midwestern United States, including Alabama, passed restrictive abortion laws that are currently being challenged in court.

"Marshae Jones was indicted for manslaughter for losing a pregnancy after being shot in the abdomen five times. Her shooter remains free. We're going to get Marshae out of jail," tweeted The Yellowhammer Fund, an Alabama-based group that gives financial help to people seeking abortions.

She was shot while in the car. What next are they going to put everyone in jail and prison what a pg female has a drink. How long can one have sex when pregnant. What is one gets Hiv or a STD while being pg.???

I am more interested in the woman with the gun, did he have a permit? Did she have to fire a gun in the gut of a pg female that she was fighting with over a man. Could not she of aimed the gun to a different part of her body.

Correcting pronouns, its the teacher you, I guess!
Seems the arresting officer in this little hick town has a thing for pg females and most likely so does the grand jury. Nothing will come of it, except the woman's whose fetus got shot dead will probably do through a nightmare and she is no longer pg, I bet the other female is happy, since they were fighting about the father of said fetus.
--------------------------------------------------------------

It’s not the first controversial stance Lt. Reid’s taken in cases involving pregnant women.

In 2016, Pleasant Grove police took a stand to protect the fetus of a pregnant drug user by keeping the woman in jail.

But authorities from Pleasant Grove and the Bessemer District Attorney’s Office wound up in a standoff with UAB Hospital over care for pregnant inmates. Pleasant Grove police Reid requested no bond for a pregnant drug user, in order to hold her in jail to prevent drug use before the baby’s birth.

"I'm doing my damndest to try to prevent any further damage to this child, since it's obvious the mother doesn't seem to care,'' Reid said in that case.

Medical experts from the hospital argued the move would keep the woman from getting proper treatment and could potentially cause major complications such as miscarriage. The inmate’s doctor requested her release to a drug treatment facility, but Reid lobbied for jail instead, arguing that the facility couldn’t force her to stay.

A judge sided with Reid and former District Attorney Bill Veitch, but doctors refused to discharge the patient back to jail. Doctors instead kept her in the hospital for seven months.

Reid made it clear he felt law enforcement should protect fetuses from the actions of their mothers, and vigorously prosecute any perceived harm inflicted by the mother.

"The mother's heroin addiction is more compelling to her than the health and welfare of this unborn child,'' he said. "But make no mistake, sad or not, law enforcement will hold this mother accountable and vigorously defend and protect the well-being of the child, who is innocent of all of this and simply struggling for life."

Reid said Pleasant Grove, a community of about 10,000 people in west Jefferson County, has grappled with high rates of opioid addiction. He took a special interest in cases involving pregnant women.

The arrest of Raven West, who suffered a stillbirth in 2016 after using heroin, gave him another opportunity to speak out.

"We see it every day, but I will not excuse them for their self-described 'disease' of addiction when an innocent life is threatened," Reid said in 2016. "I'm so proud to work with [former] District Attorney Bill Veitch, who understands the need for protecting these innocent children, even arguing the cases himself. We must not, and we will not, stop fighting this."

Reid and Veitch sought a long sentence for West, up to 99 years, in that case. Both West and another mother, Alexandra Laird, faced multiple charges of chemical endangerment, the law used to prosecute mothers who take drugs during pregnancy. Such charges were relatively rare in Jefferson County, based on 2015 analysis by Al.com and ProPublica – but it’s not uncommon for such cases to emerge in geographic pockets, according to criminal defense attorney Brian White.


“These sorts of ideologically-driven prosecutions tend to have clusters,” White said. “When chemical endangerment cases started happening with pregnant women, they first appeared most often in Marshall, Morgan and Lauderdale counties. The DA’s offices in bigger cities tended to have a lot fewer.”

White said the manslaughter charges filed against Jones were “crazy,” but also said he wasn’t shocked to see an effort by law enforcement to stretch criminal law to punish a mother who lost a pregnancy.

“This is a situation where the charges were dropped against the shooter,” White said. “Obviously they felt someone should be punished, so they tried to fit a square peg in a round hole by using this charge against the mother.”

Woman charged over gunshot miscarriage not Pleasant Grove’s first case against pregnant women
