The family of a Texas woman who died during pregnancy has filed the first lawsuit tied to a death linked directly to the state's abortion ban, naming Attorney General Ken Paxton among the defendants, reported The Washington Sun. Tierra Walker, 37, died in 2024 at 20 weeks pregnant after repeatedly asking doctors to end her pregnancy as preeclampsia rapidly deteriorated her health, according to the lawsuit filed in Bexar County.

And so both the baby and the mother died.

I can't see how this helps anything. Anything at all.

Turds, why are you pretending you care?

You're going to vote for Paxton regardless of what he's done, because Trump told you to.

You stupid *itch.

Keep sucking on Trump's diaper and taking your ivermectin.

Bitch.

The MAGA attitude towards preventable deaths is that preventing death is nothing they want to do.

This has turned on you so many times. I wonder if you even have a sense of self-preservation?

Well, if not, then you're all going to die.

Paxton will argue the law didn't prevent providers from performing the abortion.

His evidence....the family is also suing the providers who didn't perform the abortion.

The suit asserts that individual state officials can be held liable in their personal capacity for depriving a person of their right to life.

Given the assertion, it open up government officials in sanctuary cities & States to lawsuits where an illegal immigrant killed a citizen, or legal immigrant?

Given my understanding how US politics works, this is probably nothing more than an electioneering stunt.
