LONGMONT, Colo. (CBS4) – A woman suspected of cutting an unborn baby from a woman’s belly in Longmont will face several charges, including attempted murder, in the attack.
Boulder County District Attorney Stan Garnett won’t charge Dynel Lane, 34, with murder. He discussed why during a news conference to announce the charges.
“Colorado criminal law defines homicide as ‘the killing of a person by another’ and it defines a person as ‘a human being who had been born and was alive at the time of the homicidal act. That person does not include a fetus even if the child is born following the injury which ultimately results in its death.’ On this point, Colorado law is absolutely unambiguous. A prosecutor cannot file murder charges when a baby who is killed, has not lived outside the body of the mother. For similar reasons I cannot bring charges of child abuse resulting in death,” said Garnett.

The baby died. How is this not murder?
 
It's not murder because it would set court precedent that an unborn child is alive and a human being, if that ball got rolling then the whole baby murdering train could come to an end.

Do you remember Lacey Peterson?
 
I guess it may just be a very crude and messy involuntary amateur abortion without a license by government legal standards. :p :mad:
 
The baby was born via a c-section. The baby was still alive when the husband came home, and doctors said the baby could have survived if the lady didn't leave the baby in a cold tub.

I'd really like to send this to Miss Schultz and ask her if this is murder.

I had forgotten all about that. abortion is one of the most insane things i have ever heard of, not even from a moral viewpoint but just from a legal one. So he was charged with the murder of an unborn child but had she had an abortion it's ok? and we are only talking about a few weeks between legal abortion and a murder? it's just crazy to me and makes no sense to me...

It is in NC.

Varies by State Law.

Sad but true. :( +rep.

Then again, there have been cases where people were charged for a double crime when killing a pregnant woman. But the inconsistency/illogic of it all is ignored... just as they ignore that premature babies have survived (and are obviously considered human beings) at the same age that preborn babies can be legally killed in some places.
 
Have the Republican/crat abortion prohibitionists Paul, Cruz, Rubio, etc. HONESTLY DIVULGED, SOMEWHAT PRECISELY, HOW THEIR FAVORED ABORTION LAW WOULD READ AND WHAT THE PENALTIES WOULD BE FOR VIOLATION OF THEIR LAW?! :confused:

(i didn't think so..you want to watch a republicrat blowhard abortion prohibitionist politician squirm wildly...ask them my ^^ question...with the recorder running) ;)

Considering his father wanted to leave it up to the states, as per the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, Rand Paul has not disagreed with this to my knowledge, and neither has ever run for state office, I'd say any logical mind could figure out that Rand Paul won't be trying to interfere with the people who would pass such laws by kibbitzing. All he will do is find a way to get the ball back in their court.

Only someone so obsessed by the Republicrat or Demopublican false dichotomy that he can't even find his own belly button, much less tell friend from foe, would even ask.

Why can't you keep your random insults to your own threads? Is that behavior too civilized for you?

Rand Paul should pose that question to the head of the DNC. This insanity is what her warped mentality leads to. But yeah, even under the most liberal current abortion laws this should be considered a murder. It would be one thing if the baby died in utero but that's not what happened. Pro-life groups should remember this a run a well funded campaign against Stan Garrett next election cycle to teach him and others like him a lesson.

Yep.

Great minds think alike! Hopefully Rand is aware of this story.

Trolling really hard today aren't you? But that's the usual for you.
 
actuptulsa reads from the script: "Considering his father wanted to leave it up to the states, as per the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, Rand Paul has not disagreed with this to my knowledge,

Abortion and bioethics[edit]

Paul is opposed to abortion.[SUP][27][/SUP][SUP][28][/SUP][SUP][29][/SUP][SUP][30]...[/SUP]Describing himself as "100% pro life," Paul has said, "I believe life begins at conception and it is the duty of our government to protect this life.... I have stated many times that I will always vote for any and all legislation that would end abortion or lead us in the direction of ending abortion."[SUP][32][/SUP] He has been a sponsor or cosponsor of several legislative measures to effectively ban virtually all abortions by recognizing a legal right to life of human embryos from the moment of fertilization.[SUP][33][/SUP][SUP][34][/SUP][SUP][35][/SUP][SUP][36][/SUP][SUP][37][/SUP]
Paul favors a federal ban on abortion, but he has said that until the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade or the nation passes a constitutional amendment to ban abortions nationwide, the legality of abortion should be left to the individual states to decide without federal involvement.[SUP][38][/SUP]
During his senate campaign, Paul said he received a 100% pro-life score on a Kentucky Right to Life survey[SUP][39][/SUP] ...He received a perfect score from the National Right to Life Committee.[SUP][citation needed]

(..btw, abortion prohibitionists, your lame 'states rights' talking point BEGS THE QUESTION, "WHAT STATE ABORTION LAWS DO YOU FAVOR AND WHAT PENALTIES DO YOU FAVOR FOR VIOLATION?...squirm on, abortion prohibitionists.. ;)

Um...

If you had a Federal ban on abortion, it could still be up to the states to determine the penalties. Infanticide is a crime in all 50 states, but the level of punishment differs. So, I think your snide post actually confirmed what acptulsa was saying.
