Pregnant Inmate Forced To Undergo Abortion To Be Eligible for Death Penalty in China
 

This is something I never thought about... what if a person on death row is pregnant. It's pretty fucked up... the law states that if you're under 18 or pregnant you can't be executed, but they had somebody sign on her behalf then put her out (instead of local anestesia) for the abortion.


"Chinese prison officials have forced a pregnant inmate found guilty of transporting heroin to undergo an abortion so that she could be eligible for the death penalty, according to a report published on Wednesday, AFP/Yahoo! News reports.

Ma Weihua in January was arrested in Gansu province for transporting 56 ounces of heroin from Xinjiang province. Under China's criminal code, individuals convicted of trafficking that amount of heroin can be executed. "

thats some crazy shit

Baby would have probably been born addicted anyway. :(

LOL :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

What's even more fucked up in that story is that drug trafficing is punishable by death.

exactly.

fear us atheists, THIS is the shit we will do once we get into office.

we are not only FOR ABORTIon, we are for FORCING them on others!!!

STOP FUCKING BREEDING AND WE WILL STOP FORCING ABORTIONS!!!

You get killed for dealing heroin over there ? damn thoses are some strict laws ..

But with a 1 billion people country, I understand ... Just imagine the prisons if they had to put everybody in them

damn that is harsh..but if you are moving 56 ounces of heroin..you are not exactly unaware of what might happen to you.
