Governor No-chul Defies Louisiana Grand Jury Over Felony

Gov. Kathy Hochul has doubled down on interstate abortion, refusing to extradite a NY doctor to Louisiana, where she was indicted by a grand jury. The doctor in question wrote a prescription for the morning after pill for the mother of a pregnant Louisiana resident, where such drugs are illegal.

As reported by CBS:

A New York doctor was indicted by a Louisiana grand jury on Friday for allegedly prescribing an abortion pill online in the Deep South state, which has one of the strictest near-total abortion bans in the U.S.

Grand jurors at the District Court for the Parish of West Baton Rouge issued an indictment against Dr. Margaret Carpenter; her company, Nightingale Medical, PC; and a third person. All three were charged with criminal abortion by means of abortion-inducing drugs, a felony.

Prosecutors in Louisiana say a mother ordered the pill online and gave it to her child.

"The young child was told by the mother that she had to take the pill or else, and the child took the pill," District Attorney Tony Clayton said.

Nevertheless, Hochul dug her heels in today. After Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry sent a warrant for the arrest and extradition of Dr. Margaret Carpenter of New York earlier this week, Hochul held a press conference this afternoon, stating vehemently that she would not meet the terms of the request, "Not now, not ever."

Carpenter allegedly filled a prescription request from a pregnant Louisiana teen's mother. The doctor's office shipped morning-after pills to the mother, who, depending on who's telling the story, forced or convinced her daughter to take the drug, which worked as intended, killing the baby.

Gov. Landry contends that the teen was excited to have a child and was even planning a gender reveal party, and the mother forced her to terminate the pregnancy with the ill-gotten drugs.

This is a developing story.
