Wow. Girl’s drink spiked with abortion pill.

HOLLIDAYSBURG — State police are helping Williamsburg, Blair County, authorities find whomever spiked a pregnant teenage girl’s drink with a drug used to abort pregnancies in cows, a drug they think was stolen from a Williamsburg farm, according to a release.

The pregnant girl’s beverage was tainted with Prostamate sometime between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. March 31 at Williamsburg High School, police said. Troopers are considering the act an aggravated assault upon the girl and her unborn baby, police said.

State police think whoever was responsible was trying to abort the girl’s unborn child, the release indicates.

The drug and a syringe also were reported stolen from a farm in Huston Township, Blair County, police said.

The investigation is continuing.

THE STATE

Though I think this is horrible, I am surprised to learn you can be charged for a crime against an unborn child.

I think the case will have more to do with assault against the girl, but if someone is found guilty of assault against the unborn child it's going to set some ... interesting legal precedents.

....Am I the only one who noticed that it was used for abort CALVES!!!?

For all we know the embryo would have turned to a large Tumor and bursted out of the woman's stomach....like in that horror movie.

^No, you weren't. Though, I don't think anyone else found it relevant to metion it - what happened was horrible and terrifying regardless.

I wonder what trimester. It might end up coming down to that.

They do that to guys who murder pregnant women to put more time on their prison terms.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Well, it counts as two separate murder charges. Sometimes judges throw the baby out*, sometimes they don't.

*...with the legal bathwater.

You'd think they would try to be more consistent.

Extenuating circumstances prevent them from using the same ruling in every case.

Did you just make an entire post properly capitalized and punctuated with no smilies?

Did you eat a pregnant woman?
