This isn't true. Incredibly, the Attorney General of Ohio went on television with a false claim. He was identifying the age of the girl (10 years old) as a medical condition. That child's abortion could not have been legally performed in the state of Ohio. I will say it again, Dave Yost looks like an a$$ (and so do you, but that is expected).You're repeating yourself. Bottom line is the mother and child did not have to go out of state. I'd also like to know how the girl is raped on at least two occasions, when did Mom know, and why she's six weeks pregnant before Mom makes a move.
Everyone, none more than you, should learn to hold their water. Some on the right expressed skepticism while others termed it a lie. That happens when an outlet single-sources, makes implication that is not true, and the source is the vested claimant. Literally no one could verify the story until yesterday when an arrest was made. If I'm Yost, I'm asking the DA and mayor why this was a covert investigation given that it's had more than a week news cycle.
There's a difference between erroneously thinking you must go out of state and state law forcing you to. People who don't waste crises turn rumor or half-truth into messaging campaigns, and that is what Biden did. That and the fact that "professional journalists" have not recanted or apologized for any of the scores of hoaxes they perpetuated for six years now, is what I took issue with.
I'll try to be more fun going forward.
They are going to prosecute her for not reporting the abortion of a 10 year old ... when she did actually report it? I guess that makes sense to Republicans.They are looking to prosecute her for not reporting the crime. You know, the RAPE of a 10-year-old!!!!!
Yes, she damn well did!Because she illegally didn’t report the child abuse as a mandatory reporter
Dr. Caitlin Bernard covered that too. The mother of the 10 year old signed a waiver of HIPAA authorization. Dr. Bernard knew the scrutiny that she would be under for this story, and she appears to have covered herself very well for the ensuing Republican onslaught.I will be surprised if there isn't a professional misconduct levied for violating HIPAA.
You take satisfaction in a 10-year-old being raped and having to have an abortion being true? I would hope we could all agree that none of us would want that to be true. It certainly "bums me out" that it is true.How do figure that? LOL.
The right-wing jumped the gun on this story being a hoax, and now they have egg on their face. The story that Biden recounted of a 10 year old rape victim traveling from Ohio to Indiana to have an abortion performed turned out to be accurate ... and you are bummed out by that.

@NCFisher is Volnation's Maestro of Misinformation.
That might cover her. If is a standard waiver, it may not be enough. This story in nationwide. The actors in it are coming to light. This, to me, would be an extraordinary situation.Dr. Caitlin Bernard covered that too. The mother of the 10 year old signed a waiver of HIPAA authorization.

The State Attorney General doesn't make the law that physicians are required to follow. It's not "whatever he says goes." The 10 year old girl was denied an abortion in Ohio, because the physicians who examined her evidently didn't think her life was at risk due to the pregnancy, and understandably, those physicians weren't taking any chances. What was the mother supposed to do at that point?A state AG is enforcer of state law. If that AG says the law exempts such a case, who're you to say different? This is why Turley agreed the law provides that exemption.
I take no satisfaction at all... but the conduct of Republicans on this story has been horrendous. They were too quick to call this story a lie - see Rep. Jim Jordan ... and now that the story has been confirmed, they want to change the issue to the undocumented status of the rapist.You take satisfaction in a 10-year-old being raped and having to have an abortion being true?

State laws should certainly allow for exceptions such as these. It still doesn't support that abortion needs to be federalized. The federal government does not need to be in charge of everything. It is up to the people in each state to make their voices heard.
So let's review. You are butthurt because this girl had to be taken across state lines to get an abortion. Given the fact that it is looking like the rapist had repeatedly done that, AND was the mother's live in boyfriend is just a side story that has no bearing on any of it. Is that about right?I take no satisfaction at all... but the conduct of Republicans on this story has been horrendous. They were too quick to call this story a lie - see Rep.

Or would it be OK if we hanged that ****ing bastard in the town square, and stopped allowing more of his kind to enter the country?

That is outrageous. The guy was her boyfriend... the girl should be taken away. She has no chance at a decent life where she is. She will probably be raped again, by the next druggie loser mom brings home. This is sick.I think perhaps the Ohio physicians were clinic abortionists who, as you state, didn't want to deal with it. OH now has a case to sharpen the law if too ambiguous. The AG can decline or decide to prosecute, so it is what he says goes.
Given that Mom is now openly defending the accused rapist, she might have done a number of things before the 6 weeks point. I want to see what actually happened here.
