TN woman self aborts with hangar, charged Murder 1

[cpicturetaker12]

This will be just the tip of the iceburg folks. When women shoved coathangers into their uteruses in my mothers and grandmothers days they DIED or lived and it was kept A SECRET. This woman waited too long either from lack of insurance, money or access or even second thoughts. A live baby was delivered. Now she will be have ABUSE heaped upon her for being desperate and she is charged with attempted murder. She now has a premature baby, which as the article says, will need health the care the rest of her life, and she is arrested. Women who aren't desperate (including pressured from 'others') don't do this. Blow smoke all you want about women who WILL DO THIS!

PS There have been numerous stories and articles about Amazon's fulfillment centers around the county and the fact that they a decent wage but limit their hours to keep employees as 'part time workers', thus NO BENEFITS. THIS IS SPECULATION but I wonder whether she had insurance!! Her boyfriend thought she lost too much blood and called 911. I have to wonder what part he might have played in all of this.




According to the Murfreesboro Post, Detective Tommy Roberts determined that 31-year-old Anna Yocca attempted to “self-abort” her pregnancy in September.

Police said that Yocca filled her bathroom tub with hot water, got in and then “took a coat hanger and attempted to self-abort her pregnancy.”

Roberts wrote that Yocca became “concerned about her safety” after she lost a lot of blood. She was taken to Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital by her boyfriend.

Doctors at the hospital said that Yocca stated that she wanted to end her pregnancy. However, doctors were able to save the baby, which weighed only 1.5 pounds at birth. It will reportedly need medical care for the rest of its life because of damage done to the lungs, heart and eyes during the abortion attempt.

Yocca, who is employed at an Amazon fulfilment center, was indicted on charges of first degree attempted murder by a grand jury last week. She was being held at the Rutherford County Adult Detention Center in lieu of $200,000 bond.

I'm glad she was charged. She deserves years of jail-time.

Would be interested to know why she was so desperate as to try to do this herself? Had the state of TN managed to make it so difficult to get an abortion that this was the only option? Or was she just flat out mentally ill?

Oh, law enforcement from a state in the deep south is behaving in a barbaric manner. What a shocker.
