The risk of criminal charges after experiencing miscarriage
An Ohio woman faces criminal charges after she had a miscarriage. Brittney Watts was 22 weeks pregnant, and her pregnancy had been deemed non-viable just days earlier, when she miscarried in the bathroom of her home. Two weeks later, she was arrested on charges of felony abuse of a corpse for how she handled the remains. Amna Nawaz discussed the case with Mary Ziegler.
