By CBS Atlanta, Jun. 9, 2015
ALBANY, Ga. (CBS Atlanta/AP) — A south Georgia woman has been charged with malice murder in the death of a 5 1/2-month-old fetus she delivered after taking an abortion pill.
WALB-TV reports 23-year-old Kenlissa Jones took a Cytotec abortion pill she purchased on the Internet and delivered the fetus Saturday night. Jones reportedly bought the pill from a source in Canada.
A neighbor drove Jones to the hospital, but she delivered the baby boy in the car.
Jones’ family was shocked at what happened.
“At that point we didn’t even know she was pregnant,” Rico Riggins, her brother, told WALB. “And so my first real reaction was like, why she keeping it away from us.”
