Alabama judge allows teen would-be dad to sue medics for assisting girlfriend abort baby in potentially groundbreaking case
Ryan Magers, in his complaint, argued that the doctors of the women's center violated the right to life of his developing child, which is recognized under Alabama's amendment
A teenager from Alabama is reportedly suing a clinic and its doctors for assisting his girlfriend in aborting their unborn fetus. The 19-year-old from Madison County, Ryan Magers, filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against the Alabama Women's Center for Reproductives in Huntsville, Alabama, on behalf of the unborn child he's calling "Baby Roe".
Madison County Probate Judge Frank Barger reportedly ruled that "Baby Roe" could be named as a co-plaintiff in Magers' lawsuit because of Amendment 2, which was added as a clause to the state's constitution recognizing that the life of a person begins from the moment of conception, according to a Daily Mail report.
