State law that he personally voted for when he was in the state assembly.
Sounds like a !@#$ty thing to do to people you don't know, not to mention an abuse of power.
You're allowed to swear on here as long as your mom doesn't know your username you know
That’s good to know, God rest her soul
Wouldn't this mean the evidence is gathered illegally, potentially doing more harm than good for the state prosecutors?
I don't think they'll care too much about process violations in those states.
Generally speaking, prosecutors care a lot about shit that'll tank their case.
But superior courts should. It will be a long and drawn out appeals process but there's no way a reasonable judge will look at the circumstances and side with prosecution.
Yeah, there's definitely a lack of those in the US. The Supreme Court has shown they don't care about standing any more, I'm sure process is the next thing they'll ignore to get a favourable outcome.
And nobody will go to jail
Ahh, thanks. So it has nothing to do with abortion?
Fuck this guy.
So is it illegal to cross state lines now?
Up until recently, not really..... I came across this article the other day.
TLDR: Idaho is the first state to criminalize aiding a minor in getting an abortion out-of-state.
US is insane.
"I was helping them for a friend I was unaware that they were pregnant"
problem solved?
Fucking, give them cash, an old visa gift card, and a burner smartphone with Uber installed. Get a corporation involved, that'd be tight.
I just hate these dumb authoritarian laws they try to make. You know they're dumb when circumventing them is easier than confusing ChatGPT.
Sounds to me like someone should set up a van or something with plate readers and drive around the police station during shift change. Then share that info out, since it's ok.
