A 26-year-old woman has been charged with murder in Texas after authorities said she caused"the death of an individual by self-induced abortion."
It's unclear whether Herrera is accused of having an abortion or whether she helped someone else get an abortion. "[Homicide] doesn't apply to the murder of an unborn child if the conduct charged is 'conduct committed by the mother of the unborn child,'" Vladeck said. Lynn Paltrow, the executive director of National Advocates for Pregnant Women also noted the state law exemption.
Medication abortions are not considered self-induced under federal Food and Drug Administration regulations, Vladeck said.
