        No idea. Not being a lawyer, I won't speculate on which laws might fit-specially in that specific state.

          1. The woman's reasons, while weak, are being used against her when she was talking in what she assumed to be a confidential situation.

          2. The woman really should give the other child up for adoption.

            She could be declared unfit to be a mother.

              “We are unable to find any reason other than the cosmetic motivations” for the mother’s decision, said Kent Morgan, spokesman for the district attorney.
              The woman obviously didn't want her incredible good looks ruined...

                I'm with Azazel. Murder is too much. Endangerment or perhaps some prenatal version of negligance. She clearly was an idiot but on the face of things she has the right to refuse treatment. Since however she has lives depending upon her, she has imposed upon them.

                  She had a right to refuse the operation, end of story.

                  I might disapprove of the choice or the result, but thats it as far as that goes.

                    Oh I'm not arguing that point. I'd argue that she should be ceclared an unfit mother for the surviving twin though.

                      You people.

                      Surgery is a deeply personal event and decision. Refusing to go under the knife doesn't make you a bad person nor does it make you an unfit mother.

                          Saying that you'd rather have your kids die than have an unsightly scar on your body goes along way toward justifying that claim though.

                            Unless there's a law mandating that one must undergo such an operation if the doctors recommend it, I can't see the murder charge. But I think she should be hit was a negligence charge, perhaps even manslaughter.

                              This is a special case. In this case your decision has massive implications for the lives of others, others who you are responsible for bringing into being.

                              For example, if you gave your friend some home brew and it wrecked his kidneys and he needed to be hooked up to another person for dialysis, then the state would be fully justified in compelling you to be that other person.

                              People who think we have absolute rights are dreamers and don't understand how rights really work.
