23 year old bought pills online (which are only half of the drugs used in medical abortions) as no abortion clinic was available to her nearby. Police were called after she went to the hospital in the process of delivering the foetus, which later died. It says she was 5.5 months, so 22 weeks, which is the legal limit for abortions in Georgia. However, courts have blocked that law as far as I can see.
Even more worrying is the North Dakota law set to come into force in August, banning abortions after 6 weeks.
