Shody

A young Virginia woman was sent from court today with a 30 day suspended sentence and a fine of $1394. She was charged with and convicted of a misdemeanor, i.e. filing a false report to the police. She was being tried for killing her unborn child (she has two more at home). She claims she was under alot of stress from the child's father and found out too late she was pregnant. She was full term, therefore couldn't legally have an abortion. She considered punching herself in the stomach or drinking bleach. Then, she got the idea to shoot herself and claim a man did it so she wouldn't be charged with murder. Hence, the false report. She lived, but the full term baby didn't. According to her attorney, there is no precedent in Virginia for such a crime, however, there is in Florida and Georgia. She is happy it's over so she can get on with her life. I'm terribly outraged. Am I wrong to feel this act was premeditated murder, considering the punching and the bleach?
