Alabama woman loses unborn child after being shot, gets arrested; shooter goes free

The shooting happened about noon on Dec. 4, 2018, outside Dollar General on Park Road. Officers were dispatched to the scene on a report of someone shot but arrived to find the shooting victim – later identified as Jones - had been picked up and driven to Fairfield. Police and paramedics then found the Jones at a Fairfield convenience store.

Jones was taken from Fairfield to UAB Hospital. She was five months pregnant and was shot in the stomach. The unborn baby did not survive the shooting.

“The investigation showed that the only true victim in this was the unborn baby,’’ Pleasant Grove police Lt. Danny Reid said at the time of the shooting. “It was the mother of the child who initiated and continued the fight which resulted in the death of her own unborn baby.”

The 5-month fetus was "dependent on its mother to try to keep it from harm, and she shouldn’t seek out unnecessary physical altercations,” Reid added.

Jones will be transferred to the Jefferson County Jail where she will be held on $50,000 bond.

Does anybody want to explain the reasoning behind this? (Can anybody?)
 
Probably stone her to death in the town square, let me take a wild guess and say she had brown or black skin, fucking Alabama.

She attacked a person apparently, chased them down the road going insane and was then shot in self defense.

Then apparently ran off, without going to hospital, but was picked up eventually and brought to hospital.

I don't know what to think about it to be honest. On one side, her unborn baby was killed as a direct result of her stupid actions.

On the other side of it, I feel weird blaming a pregnant woman for the death of her unborn child.

If a woman is on a cell phone while driving and gets into an accident, is she liable for putting the child at risk? No man would ever be held for such a crime as what the woman is charged with in the shooting incident. Alabama's anti abortion laws are creating a special crimes standard for pregnant women who are also not allowed to terminate an unwanted pregnancy.


This is where it's going.

Unless she had a gun in her hand, the shooting would be unjustified. It's not hard to run from a pregnant woman.
