Did you see the story yesterday about the ex-cop getting life in prison for killing his girlfriend and their unborn baby? This story demonstrates just what a difficult time we are having as a culture defining what is a life and what is not. Did this criminal kill two people, or did he kill a person and a late-term fetus? Surprisingly, the article I read made it clear that he killed a baby and the mother:
Prosecutors told the jury that Cutts killed Davis and the nearly full-term unborn baby at her Lake Township home in northeast Ohio to avoid making child support payments for the child.
Under the law it was very clearly a double murder. Most states consider a late-term fetus as a person for the purposes of prosecution of violent crime. These are relatively long standing laws.
