I Don't Want To Remember This

 Utah criminalizes miscarriage.

I have no words.

Beyond commenting on how desperate someone must be to pay someone to beat her, and how horrible it must be to have no other options. ($175 is cheaper than an abortion).

Also, how craven it is to beat a pregnant seventeen year for money.

I just... I am just horrified about this whole situation.
