Re: VA Legislative Sentry: Have a Miscarriage, Go to JAIL?
Yeah. AS I said earlier, Virginia already has legislation that is targeted to this specific problem. Currently, any mother may, without any questions asked or legal repercussions, abandon a baby under 14 days old at any suitable location, such as a hospital or fire station. IOW, all she has to do is walk in, leave the child, and walk out. I think that the citizens of Viriginia would be much better served by a campaign to publicize this existing law rather than creating new and essentially pointless and unenforcable law.
