You can expect some legislative debate on this come January. From the Associated Press:
WALB-TV reports 23-year-old Kenlissa Jones took a Cytotec abortion pill she purchased on the Internet and delivered the fetus Saturday night. A neighbor drove Jones to the hospital, but she delivered the baby boy in the car.
Officials said the boy died after about half an hour at the hospital. Jones was arrested and taken to the Dougherty County Jail.
Dougherty County District Attorney Greg Edwards said the case will likely go before a grand jury. He said Georgia and federal laws will need to be explored. Under Georgia law, no abortions are authorized after the first trimester except in medical facilities.
