Mother Legally Kills Newborn

A woman in Campbell County, Virginia suffocated her newborn baby but won’t be prosecuted in any way. The reason, investigators say, is because of a law in Virginia. If the placenta is still in the mother and the umbilical cord is attached—even if the baby is alive—she can do whatever she wants to the baby with no fear of prosecution. Authorities have seen this gruesome scene before and have asked Virginia legislators to change the law, but they’ve not acted. That is, until now. This latest shocking publicity has moved some legislators to finally begin drafting a bill to end the killing. This brutal and totally legal act is a natural byproduct of Roe versus Wade which legalized abortion-on-demand throughout pregnancy for any reason. Please pray all this killing will end.
