These are the FIRST TWO sentences of the new Alabama Abortion Bill (HB314).

Democrats have interpreted and heavily promoted this as "Women will be forced to suffer and die from serious pregnancy related health issues" and "Women who endure a miscarriage or abortion will be charged as felons".

My question, are Democrats seriously as incoherent enough to believe what they are saying and promoting (in direct opposition to the actual legislation) OR are they blatantly spreading lies to their own constituents assuming that they will never read the bill?

A 24-year-old woman in Tifton, Georgia, is facing criminal charges after suffering a miscarriage, reigniting concerns over how the state’s strict abortion laws are being enforced.

What Happened?

Selena Maria Chandler-Scott was arrested and charged with concealing the death of another person and abandonment of a dead body after a medical emergency on March 20. Emergency responders arrived at Brookfield Mews Apartments around 6 a.m. after receiving a call about an unconscious woman who was bleeding heavily. She was transported to Tift Regional Medical Center, where doctors confirmed she had suffered a miscarriage.

Police claim a witness saw Chandler-Scott place the fetal remains in a bag and dispose of it in a dumpster outside the apartment complex. Authorities later recovered the remains and sent them for autopsy.

The Autopsy Findings

The medical examiner determined that the fetus was 19 weeks old. There were no signs of trauma, and the report confirmed that the fetus had never taken a breath. The coroner classified it as a spontaneous miscarriage—something that occurs in 10–20% of known pregnancies, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. At 19 weeks, a fetus is roughly the size of a mango, with underdeveloped lungs that are not yet capable of supporting life.

The Legal Grey Area

Georgia’s “heartbeat law”—officially known as the Living Infants Fairness and Equality (LIFE) Act—bans most abortions after six weeks and grants personhood status to embryos and fetuses. This classification means that even women who miscarry could be subjected to legal scrutiny if authorities suspect they played a role in the pregnancy loss or improperly handled fetal remains.

Reproductive rights advocates have long warned that such laws create the risk of criminalizing pregnancy complications. While Georgia law does not explicitly require women to report or bury fetal remains after a miscarriage, the broad language of the statute has led to growing uncertainty about how these cases will be handled.

What Do Authorities Say?

When asked about the case, Tift County District Attorney Patrick Warren clarified that his office had no role in issuing the warrant. He also emphasized that Georgia law generally does not criminalize miscarriages.

“There is no applicable case law on this issue, as it is generally deemed a medical condition and prosecution is not warranted,” Warren said. “Georgia courts have held that once a baby is ‘born alive and has had an independent and separate existence from its mother,’ then any injury or death would be subject to criminal prosecution.”

His statement suggests that Chandler-Scott’s arrest may be an outlier rather than a precedent—but for many, the case raises troubling questions. How far can personhood laws extend? And are women now expected to navigate criminal liability while enduring one of the most devastating medical events of their lives?
