So, apparently, the possibility that Kate Cox could have been left unable to have another child if forced to carry the fetus to term was not adequate under Texas law. Because it was her fertility and not her life that was at risk it was not a valid exception to the law.
Seems like a "cutting off the nose to spite the face" type of situation that Texas has created.
I also have to say that if we see her face civil or criminal consequences for this it will be one of the largest boons to the pro-choice movement we have ever seen.
