Addicted to meth? That's jail time. Wait, you're a mother and you're pregnant? That's super jail time, 15 years for you. Have to fuck over your kids' lives as much as possible. You also don't get medical care and you have to give birth in a fungus-infested jail shower. Definitely ethical treatment under law here!
Caswell, who has faced several chemical endangerment charges over the years, is now in state prison, serving a 15-year sentence.
Not to take away from your comment but this woman clearly has major mental issues too. Why is she keep getting pregnant?
Lack of healthcare
Because "sterilization in lieu of prison" is too "eugenics" to be allowed as an option from the justice system.
She needed someone to explain to her that semi-permanent birth control measures demonstrate "rehabilitation" and "low risk of recidivism" after (or preferably, before) her first charge.
Where did you read that? It's literally nowhere in the article. Unless you have another source that states as much?
Maybe, but saying "psychiatric medication" is a far cry from "serious mental issues".
It’s right there in the article. She has issues. Still doesn’t deserve what she got but she definitely needs proper help
I just checked. The word "mental" is nowhere in that page or article. So where are you getting this from?
