Ok, little hypothetical. Woman decides she does not want to be a mother, so she hires a man to end the life of her "child". He does it. In this instant this is the "child".
Same senario, only in this instance, this is the "child". (fetus at 6 weeks gestation.)
Should the punishment be the same?
Now lets say in the second instance, mom gets Goat's Rue, which is known to have abortifacient effects if taken in high enough doses. She takes it and it is successful. She aborts her child. Should she be punished as severly as the guy that killed the first child? As severly as the guy that killed the second one?
Should a mother be charged with conspiracy to murder if she hires a doctor to abort her fetus, assuming of course that Roe is no longer the law of the land?
