Can't commit homocide on a person that is not legally alive. So it depends on what stage the baby was. Since she was going to get abortion, probably not legally al human being

But what if she wasn't going to have an abortion and planned on keeping the baby. Does the pending abortion change the circumstances?

If it's known the woman's intent was to not deliver the child, then likely not


However she can recover damages for how traumatic the experience was for her as it didn't happen in the way she desired and is now emotionally scarred. Not to mention that the guy is drinking and that's an aggregate risk factor.

She would get money from his insurance company for sure, but as far as going after his assets once the policy is maxed out....doubt it

Yes, it's manslaughter.

Why? Because a human life was taken. Even leftist laws see it that way.

Why wouldn't the abortion be murder? kettle logic and, arguably, because the mother has consented.

The child is either a human life or it is not. Abortionists have a hard time defending a scenario like this one, but that is how they would go about it (primarily, by denying it is a life when it is inconvenient, and by claiming the mother's consent changes the situation).

I can't see how else they could argue it. Can you?

No. They are devoid of any moral integrity. The facts change to suit their
arguments rather than their arguments changing to suit the facts

"God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787

No, legally because it has to be a viable fetus.

Why does it have to be a drunk driver, can't it just be an accident where she's hot and miscarriages?

You guys are missing the point. OP is asking a somewhat rhetorical question in order to point out the moral hypocrisy of the gov making an unborn child deserving of rights in some circumstances, but not in others.

It's not a debate, guys. Most states in the union have fetal homicide laws protecting the unborn from non-abortion related murders, car accidents, etc. So ... OP is 100% right in pointing out the law's hypocrisy.

If I see a 10/10 babe walking down the sidewalk and I smash into an old lady crossing the street, can the hot girl be charged with alluding and abetting manslaughter?
