It looks like a former Pharmicist has medically-induced an abortion on his mistress (he is/was engaged to someone else). The article from _The Leader _says:

Tercero is accused of using pharmaceutical drugs to induce a  miscarriage. He allegedly inserted a drug thought to be Misoprostol into the woman  during two sexual encounters at her home in Sayre, Pa. He also allegedly  put the drug in the womans juice and water.

 On Feb. 28, the second time Tercero allegedly inserted pills into the  woman, she miscarried at the Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre. The fetus  was at 13 weeks gestation. Tercero was engaged to another woman and had been in a physical  relationship with the victim for approximately two years.

Another blog that I have been reading, Is Anybody There?, asks a good question:

If a  woman can have an abortion without the consent of the father, then why  cant the father do the same thing to her? If killing your baby is an  absolute right and feminists are fighting for equality, then why should  only mothers have that right? Why cant fathers as well?

It is her body, his pocketbook, and an ever-irrelevant blob – right? If abortion were a “right” then I would have to agree with this man’s logic.

Here is the thing bothers me: the primary argument that I have heard used to explain why abortions should be allowed is the case of rape. It is not a very common occurance as that kind of stress will normally put a stop to ovulation (I can document this if anybody wants but am ru

ing low on time this morning). If the fringe case is how we convince a large demographic that abortion is fine, then fringe case like this ought to get just as much support from the abortion community as any other abortion that is called into question.

This is my humble attempt to make the situation better-known.
