"An Ohio resident is facing charges after she had a miscarriage — the latest incident connected to a wider concern about the criminalization of pregnant women and postpartum women.
In late September, local law enforcement officials responded to Watt’s residence in Warren, which is about 56 miles from Cleveland, where they found the corpse in the toilet, according to the Tribune Chronicle. They noted that there were signs of injury on the deceased baby.
Warren Police Detective Nick Carney said Watts claimed “she felt the baby come out, and there was a big splash,” WKBN reported. During a preliminary court hearing in early November, Dr. George Sterbenz, a forensic pathologist, explained that there was no injury to the fetus, adding that the baby died before she gave birth and that she went to the hospital two times before the incident happened.
“This fetus was going to be non-viable. It was going to be non-viable because she had premature ruptured membranes — her water had broken early — and the fetus was too young to be delivered,” Sterbenz said, per the outlet."
