Addicted to meth? That’s jail time. Wait, you’re a mother and you’re pregnant? That’s super jail time, 15 years for you. Have to fuck over your kids’ lives as much as possible. You also don’t get medical care and you have to give birth in a fungus-infested jail shower. Definitely ethical treatment under law here!
Because “sterilization in lieu of prison” is too “eugenics” to be allowed as an option from the justice system.
She needed someone to explain to her that semi-permanent birth control measures demonstrate “rehabilitation” and “low risk of recidivism” after (or preferably, before) her first charge.
But over the next seven months of incarceration for “chemical endangerment” in the Etowah county detention center (ECDC), Caswell was denied regular access to prenatal visits, even as officials were aware her pregnancy was high-risk due to her hypertension and abnormal pap smears, according to a lawsuit filed on Friday against the county and the sheriff’s department. She was also denied her prescribed psychiatric medication and slept on a thin mat on the concrete floor of the detention center for her entire pregnancy.

Caswell, who has faced several chemical endangerment charges over the years, is now in state prison, serving a 15-year sentence.

Lack of healthcare

Where did you read that? It’s literally nowhere in the article. Unless you have another source that states as much?
I imagine they were referring to this:
Maybe, but saying “psychiatric medication” is a far cry from “serious mental issues”.
Just a guess.
It’s right there in the article. She has issues. Still doesn’t deserve what she got but she definitely needs proper help
I just checked. The word “mental” is nowhere in that page or article. So where are you getting this from?
