VICE’s story is really about Facebook cooperating with law enforcement and handing over chats. What does it take to get this sort of data from Facebook? VICE adds some spice to the story by saying the chats were used to prosecute a mother and daughter in Nebraska for the crime of “abortion” (their scare quotes, not ours). And here’s Forbes’ headline:

We've obtained the chats Facebook gave to police in Nebraska to help them prosecute a 17-year-old and her mother for the crime of "abortion," as well as the search warrants and court records used to obtain her chatshttps://t.co/GENa31yc29

The actual specifics of this case are horrifying across the board and in many different ways, but gatekeeping the access to public court records that reveal how abortion is criminalized and prosecuted makes it easier for things like this to happen and for no one to notice

Wait, what’s that? The specifics of the case are horrifying across the board? Like how?
I looked up the details of this case. A mother performed an abortion on her 24-week pregnant daughter at home.
They burned and buried the body.
They then proceeded to talk about the horrific crime they committed over Facebook dms, which were obtained by search warrant. https://t.co/RMrJkJWGxw

The two of them were charged with "removing, concealing or abandoning a dead human body" and a bunch of other felonies.
But being pro-abortion means defending the murder of fully formed human beings that are then burned and buried.

Two people murdered a fully formed baby at their house, burned and buried the evidence, had their dms seized via search warrant, are not being charged for an abortion itself but with "removing, concealing or abandoning a dead human body."

Lawyers like Fleischman love to lie. This happened in April (before the Roe leak), the abortion was performed illegally (late second trimester), and then they burned the possibly still living child and buried it.
Completely different from a 17-yo who had a "miscarriage" https://t.co/KnroxSWNub

Whatever way they write it. I don't care. Good thing they prosecuted her. She definitely knew that it was illegal in her state and she did it anyways. Pay the consequences.

The teen is not being prosecuted for the abortion. She was charged with removing/concealing/abandoning a dead human body, concealing the death of another person and false reporting.

We guess that’s why VICE put “abortion” in quotation marks —because that wasn’t the actual charge. But now there’s a panic over discussing abortion on Facebook chat — that’s the takeaway from this.
