re: Texas keeps dead body as fetus incubator against family's wishes.

This is a complicated case and should be treated as such. First of all, a brain-dead woman was kept on life support for a month in Michigan so they could c-section her twins at 25 weeks. LINK

Note, even after 36 days, her organs were donated.

In the case of the Munoz family, the situation is tougher. The baby was further from viability and had possibly suffered serious injury from lack of oxygen. The right choice is a very blurred line here. If the baby has a decent shot at survival, and the mother's body can be kept in good enough condition, why take the fetus's life? If not, you might have to make the tough call and pull the plugs
