Man Gets Life in Prison
A 19-year-old Texas man, Gerardo Flores, was sentenced to life in prison for his role in the death of his girlfriend's unborn twins. Erica Basoria, 17, acknowledged asking Flores to help end her pregnancy by stepping on her stomach. She had earlier started jogging and hitting herself to induce a miscarriage. When her efforts failed, she asked her boyfriend to help.
The conviction under the Texas fetal-protection law could not be extended to the mother because she had a legal right to an abortion.

And to think these children could have been adopted and spared all of this mess.
If you are up for it, please keep Justin Taylor and his wife (and hopefully new son!) in your prayers. Justin hasn't been blogging because they rushed off to Florida. To hear more about it (and to contribute to his adoption fund!) go HERE.
