Some of the gems include people blaming her for this because she trusted her boyfriend and took pills from him. Besides all the "dem whores should keep their legs closed" comments, which in this particular case, make zero sense, because she actually wanted the pregnancy. -_- We can't win, you guys. Don't want a kid?…

What's interesting is that most likely, 14 years isn't just for the abortion, it includes practicing medicine without a license (he's a med student), and a most likely a felony for forging his father's signature to obtain the prescription.

Actually, at 6 weeks, the fetal stage of development hasn't begun yet, so this would be killing an embryo.

Cytotec, to the best of my knowledge, is used to treat stomac ulcers. It is also commonly used as an illegal abortificient. It's also very dangerous and may cause haemorraging and death.

No woman can force a man to have a child, because no man can carry and birth a child. Isn't that weird?

Bingo. If you ignore the additional baggage of the forced miscarriage (and that's a pretty big if right there), you've still got a man who poisoned someone.

But nothing about the harm he caused her or the danger he put her in by giving her medication that's far from safe, or the coercion, or the assault of her body? So the only victims are the foetus and interstate commerce, not the woman who took the pill and bled and lost her pregnancy? That sounds really wrong.

Poisoning a person is illegal, even if it didn't work.

He also could have killed her. That shit isn't safe to take without the supervision of a medical professional. It's not Plan B y'know? She could have bled to death if there were complications.

Seriously, commenters? This man forcibly aborted a woman's wanted pregnancy from her body, violating her bodily autonomy, endangering her in the process from the potential side-effects including bleeding, and fourteen years is too much for you?

I couldn't help but notice the irony, either. Dude doesn't want to get "tied down" with having a kid, and winds up getting something worse in the process...

To those who think the sentence was excessive:

For anyone claiming the sentence seems lenient, would you feel it was a lenient sentence for a violent rape? That is a vile invasion of a person's right to their own body, and this seems like another flavor of the same thing to me. I can only imagine how violated Ms. Lee felt and feels after having been tricked into…

Are you kidding? This is manna for them. YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF DISCRIMINATION AGAINST TEH POOR MENZ! FOR WOMEN IT'S A HUMAN RIGHT, FOR MEN IT'S 14 YEARS IN PRISON! REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS ONLY FOR WIMMINZ! THE FEMINAZI HEGEMONY GONE OUT OF CONTROL! WAH!

I don't know about you, but if I became pregnant and was happy about it and then someone forcibly terminated my pregnancy against my will, my feathers would be pretty f****** fluffed.

"Women can choose to abort their own children! Men should have the same privilege!"

reproductive coercion, it's a form of abuse.

OH IT'S ONLY OKAY FOR WOMEN TO KILL BABIES BUT NOT MEN BLAHBITTY BLAH BLAH

I can't wait to see how the MRAs spin this one.

"he encouraged her to go to his father's obstetrics clinic"
