      Not a lawyer or from Texas, but a quick search reveals many stories of people being charged for the death of an unborn child in cases of homicide and other offenses.

      Read about the ramifications of SB-8. Private citizens can sue anyone who assisted or advised her in getting an abortion for $10,000 each. There is no real limit to who can be sued, as long as some tangential relationship can be made between her and getting the medical care she requires. While they can’t go after her directly, almost everyone else is fair game. The limits aren’t well defined, and courts haven’t ruled to clarify. A pilot who pilots the plane she flies on to another state could be sued, if someone can identify a pilot by name and they can be served by Texas courts.
