ABC losing credibility
Either ABC has dreams of being a tabloid, or some pro-life gremlin is writing headlines for their website.
The eponymous woman is not being charged "over baby cut from womb," as if this were some sort of fetal rights case. The psycho strangled a pregnant woman, cut her stomach open, and absconded with the viable baby. She's being charged with murder and kidnapping, neither of which charges are related to cutting the baby out, specifically. The sensational headline almost seems designed to further the pro-life push to criminalize harming a fetus, which in fact didn't happen here.
The crime as it is should be horrible and sensational enough to report. It's actually kind of disgusting that ABC would misrepresent it to use it as some sort of political statement, if that was in fact their intent.
