Thank you
Sounds like the real issue on this one isn't a concerted effort to pick on women--it's an example of a police interrogation producing a false confession which happens more often than a lot of people would like to admit.
quote:
Greenup “confessed” that the baby was born alive and it died because she had failed to provide it with proper care.
If this had really happened, murder would have been the appropriate charge.
quote:
prior to the miscarriage Greenup had been given Depo-Provera, a contraceptive injection that may cause a miscarriage if administered to a woman who is already pregnant.
You would know better than I would so I won't be offended if you correct me, but this sounds like malpractice. How hard is it to administer a pregnancy test before administering Depo? That sounds like it could be extremely dangerous for the patient.

Yea thats a big no-no. But this story just confuses me. If the pt was on depo and, apparently, the doctor didn't do a pregnancy test or know she was pregnant, what medical records did they look at that told them the miscarriage had to be b/w 11-15 wks? Was it a UPS from another facility? Maybe a first trimester dating U/S, but those records should be easy to find and pts know when they have had U/S showing a damn baby in their uterus. I guess the pt's self reported LMP is also possible, but that would open up a whole other can of worms (she had to have known she was already pregnant or at least a very high chance she was pregnant). This just sounds like a total cluster with inconsistencies throughout.
