The doctor rewritten the tablet over the Internet to Louisiana. It is one of the most strict abortion laws.
A jury in Louisiana, USA, charged a New York doctor on Friday for the prescribing of an interruption of the Internet via the Internet. Louisiana is one of the most strict abortion laws in the United States: artificial interruption of pregnancy is not allowed even in the case of rape or incest, TASR reports according to AP.
The jurors raised an indictment for the offense of providing an artificial interruption of pregnancy using a tablet against Margaret Carpener and her company Nightingale Medical.
According to AP, this is the first case when the jury accused the doctor for the prescribing of the abortion tablet to the patient in another state. In Louisiana doctors who provide abortion, even in the form of tablets, face a fine of $ 200,000 (€ 192,437) and imprisonment for up to 15 years.
The indictment occurred only a few months after Louisiana became the first state to reclassify the abortion tablets of Mifriston and Misoprostol to “regulated hazardous substances”. (EUR 4810) and imprisonment for one to five years.
